She says something that isn't really right but isn't really wrong. I'm not taking in their words any more, just their voices, trying to
get a feel for whatever is going on between them. I'm imagining what it's like
for them in this
delicate situation, what I would say if it were me. She has that perfect upper-class accent, and
she's using
whatever upper-class tact that comes with it to navigate this. Style. They can't be together, but their voices are betraying them.
