I couldn't even take very much interest in the lonely egg on the lonely slice of dry toast.

"She went away when I was so little," she murmured absently. "Sometimes I do fancy that I can recall how she looked as she kissed me good-bye in the big station, but it must be only fancy—one doesn't remember much at two years old.
