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.
