As a polite hint, he polished the empty plate with his pink tongue and looked up expectantly; but the best-intentioned people, if they have had little to do with dogs, cannot read such signs. "Ye needna lick the posies aff," the wifie said, good humoredly, as she picked the plate up to wash it. She thought to put down a tin basin of water.
She had gradually pulled herself upright on the pillows. "Will you kiss me and say once more, as you used to 'God bless you wifie'?" Their lips met and clung together. "God bless you wifie." And there was silence, a long silence, broken by a gasp, a sigh, and a gentle unloosening of the clasping arms. "Bella Bella speak to me, my beloved." But the passionate cry fell on ears that heard not.
No one had ever been able to influence them. They defied British administration. For fifteen years she strove there, and won a power over the ferocious Okoyong savages such as no one has ever wielded. "I'm a wee, wee wifie," she said, "no very bookit, but I grip on well none the less."
She saw that he felt himself distressingly young and inexperienced, and would not for the world have harassed him by over-advice. So she let him alone, and presently Robert threw the matter from him with a sigh. 'Let it be awhile, he said with a shake of his long frame. 'I shall get morbid over it if I don't mind. I am a selfish wretch too. I know you have worries of your own, wifie.
"This is the best path, wifie; follow me," but often Charlie knew better than either, and selected a path according to his own judgment, which proved the best of the whole.
On the landing above he must encounter the auld wifie of a landlady, rousing her, it might be, and none too good-tempered, from sleep. Unaware that he added to his master's difficulties, Bobby leaped upon him and licked the beloved face that he could not see. "Eh, laddie, I dinna ken what to do wi' ye. We maun juist hae to sleep oot."
The caretaker and his wifie always came around the kirk on pleasant mornings to see the bonny sight of the gay soldiers going to church. To wee Bobby these good, comfortable, everyday friends of his must have seemed strange in their black garments and their serious Sunday faces. And, ah! the Sabbath must, indeed, have been a dull day to the little dog.
"Jim, dear, you must get up now! Breakfast is almost ready and it won't be fit to eat if you don't come on." He opened his heavy eyelids and gazed at her sleepily. "All righto ! Just as you say just as you say." "Hurry! Breakfast will be ready before you can dress." "Gee! Breakfast all ready! You're one smart little wifie, Kiddo." The compliment failed to please.
Talking, chattering, to that cold cynic of a man, for whom only yesterday she had scarcely had a civil word! Catherine felt herself a prey to all sorts of vague unreasonable alarms. Robert had said to her the night before, with an odd look: 'Wifie, when I came in I found Langham and Rose had been spending the evening together in the study.
Thus starting the day on the rush, you have continued "on the stretch" all day, and get back home at night tired out, fretted and worried "almost to death." Even when you sit down to breakfast, you begin to worry if wifie doesn't have everything ready. You know you'll be late.
