"Of course I want to be friends, Doggie, old chap. As for major and private when you pass me in the street you've dam well got to salute me, and that's all there is to it but otherwise it's all rot. And now we've got to the heart-to-heart stage, don't you think you're a bit of a fool?" "I know it," said Doggie cheerfully. "The army has drummed that into me, at any rate."
Nor was there ever any necessity for real heart-to-heart encounters. One could break away into irony as indeed he often had to. But the real trouble with June was that she had never appealed to his aesthetic sense, though she might well have, with her red-gold hair and her viking-coloured eyes, and that touch of the Berserker in her spirit.
We expect each other to be the old heart-to-heart friends of long ago, but how to go about re-establishing the relation is the puzzle. We have all had new friends, new histories, new lives since twenty years ago, and while we make an unsatisfactory attempt to be the same "old boys" to each other, each feels the dismal failure.
Perhaps the little man was annoyed because of his challenge to the village crowd? Well, be it so. He meant, and would live up to, every word of it! The afternoon dragged after the pressman's departure. What Grant really hungered for was a heart-to-heart talk between Doris Martin and himself. But, short of a foolish attempt to carry the post office by storm, he saw no means of realizing his desire.
"What funny fascinating things these little green park-chairs are," said Merla, starting off on a fresh topic; "they always look so quaint and knowing when they're stuck away in pairs by themselves under the trees, as if they were having a heart-to-heart talk or discussing a piece of very private scandal.
Mary Virginia's level eyes regarded him with haughty surprise. The situation was rather unbelievable. "Miss Eustis " he paused to bow and smile to some passing girls who plainly envied Mary Virginia, "Miss Eustis, you must come to my office, say to-morrow afternoon. We must have a heart-to-heart talk. I have something you will find it to your interest to discuss with me."
She was kneeling by her bedside, her head buried in the clothes, her hands tightly clasped as though she had been trying to pray as her poor soul passed out into eternity. I found her sister and had a heart-to-heart, soul-to-soul talk with her one that I shall never forget. She was so silent, so uncommunicative, yet I talked on until I felt the Spirit say, "Enough." I have seen her since.
It makes the most toothsome waffles all crisp and everything. And you know when you use aluminum you don't need any grease, so that makes the waffles much nicer. I'm getting horribly domestic since Hazel became engaged, because she is learning " "And after you made the waffles?" "Oh! After that we went up-stairs to her room, and put on our kimonos, and had a heart-to-heart talk.
If you can skin, that puppy, why, sic 'em, Towse! and the devil take the hindmost! Oh, you Smart Alecks!" He backed out with a traditional wiggle of his fingers. It is to be regretted that the stringent regulations of the postal authorities will not permit us any report of the heart-to-heart talk that followed his departure, other than the baldest summary.
I'm aware of them; I sometimes wish I could have a heart-to-heart talk with them. . . ." By staying in bed she was at least keeping the promise that she had given to Eric; the sense of surrender was a novel experiment in emotion. She finished the letter and switched off the light. Darkness was not going to usher in faces to-night. Her soul felt healed. "You absurd darling child!"
