Yes, I would be glad to come here! Una said, cheerfully, to Mrs. Fike, who looked at her suspiciously, but granted:
gpt
Well, we'll look up your references. Meantime, if you like--or don't like, I suppose--you might talk to a Mrs. Esther Lawrence, who wants a room-mate.
human
Oh, I don't think I'd like a room-mate.
gpt
My dear young lady, this place is simply full of young persons who would like and they wouldn't like--and forsooth we must change every plan to suit their high and mighty convenience! I'm not at all sure that we shall have a single room vacant for at least six months, and of course--
human
Well, could I talk to Mrs.--Lawrence, was it?
gpt
Most assuredly. I _expect_ you to talk to her! Come with me.
human
Oh, Mrs. Lawrence!
gpt
Yeah, what is 't?
human
It's Mrs. Fike, deary. I think I have a room-mate for you.
gpt
Well, you wait 'll I get something on, will you!
human
We're _waiting_, deary!
