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.
