After this there was nothing for it but Frau Berg. I waited till the Grafin was alone, and then went and told her I thought it better I should go back to the Lutzowstrasse, and would like, if she didn't mind, to go tomorrow. It was very peinlich, as they say; for however much people want to get rid of you they're always angry if you want to go.
I wished I had kept quiet, for I couldn't elaborate my idea in my limping German, and it was quite difficult to go on smiling and behaving as though they were all not being rude, for I don't think they mean to be rude, and I was afraid, if I showed a trace of thinking they were that they might notice they were, and then they would have felt so uncomfortable, and the situation would have become, as they say, peinlich.

"She said what she believed to be true. I must request you, Christine, not to cast doubts on her word. We Germans do not lie." And the Graf muttered, "Peinlich, peinlich" and pushed hack his chair and left the room. "You have spoilt my husband's lunch," said the Grafin sternly. "I am very sorry," I said; and tried to go on with my own, but couldn't see it because I was blinded by tears.
