And besides, I was mistaken, greatly mistaken; thank God, you are entirely different. But promise me one thing, Aagot; promise that you will be a little careful, do! It is none of my business, of course; but you have fallen in with a crowd believe me, they are not your kind of people. Mrs. Tidemand has gained bitter experience through them." She glanced at him inquiringly.
It is quite a family seven altogether, including the tutor. The oldest daughter's name is Aagot. I'll tell you more about them later. Aagot was eighteen the 7th of December; ha, ha! she is in her nineteenth year; I happen to remember that she told me. In short, we are not exactly engaged; I don't mean to say that; we have only written to each other once in a while.
I know what I am saying. It is the loveliness and brightness of your face, and when you tilt your head sideways Of course, this is meant aesthetically, impersonally!" Aagot had given him a quick glance, and this made him add the last words.
The foreman called his attention to a letter, an envelope with something enclosed, which he found between the sheets. Irgens turned in the door. A letter? Oh, yes; he had forgotten it. He knew this envelope and he opened it at once. When he had seen what was in it he lifted his brows, greatly pleased. The envelope he put in his pocket without further ado. Ole and Aagot were in the warehouse.
And Tidemand rose quickly and said good-bye; he was going to the bank and had to hurry. Ole remained lost in contemplation; Tidemand's fate had made him thoughtful. What had become of Aagot? She had promised to be back in an hour, and it was much more than two hours since she had left. Of course, it was all right to take a walk, but.... Tidemand was right.
Ole Henriksen looked a little overworked. He had not sufficient help; when he went to England that autumn he would have to give his head assistant power of attorney and leave everything to him. Since Aagot came Ole's work had been only fun; but now she was a little indisposed and had kept up-stairs for a couple of days. Ole missed her.
"You almost make me want to cry; honestly you do." "But, dear Miss Aagot " "To get married isn't the same as to die, I'm sure." Coldevin's manner instantly changed; he became jocular. "Die! Well, I like that! But you are right in saying that I have been sitting here and depressing you with my talk. It was mostly your mother I was thinking of.
To-night he was going to sleep at last! Outside Sara he stopped abruptly. He drew back in the shadows slowly, four, six steps; his eyes were staring fixedly toward the entrance to the cafe. A cab was standing outside. He had heard Aagot's voice; she came out with Irgens. Irgens appeared first. Aagot had been delayed by something on the stairs. "Hurry up, now!" called Irgens. "Just a moment, Mr.
The Attorney spied Ojen on the sidewalk; he excused himself and stepped out of the procession. He looked back a moment later and saw that Coldevin had changed places again; he was marching under the business-men's banner, erect, grey-bearded, and shabby, with the glint of the Norwegian colours on his lapel. Aagot was dressed for the excursion; she pulled on her gloves and was ready.
He had to leave; he was going to the telegraph office. Aagot, too, got up. "But there is no reason why you should go, Miss Lynum," said Milde. "You can come back for Miss Lynum when you have telegraphed, Ole." "Yes, I am going," said Aagot. "But if you want to stay I'll call for you in a few moments," said Ole and took his hat.
