"You look really ill, Gora. No wonder you have headaches with that hair. It's magnificent but! Go to bed and I'll send up your dinner. Got any aspirin?" "Yes, thanks." "Au 'voir."
I'll take some aspirin." She reached over and snapped out the light, and with his arm tight about her waist they walked up the stairs together. Harry's week passed.
