SHE NEVER DIGNIFIED MY COMPLAINING WITH ANYTHING BUT A SINGLE COMMENT. “SOMEDAY YOU WILL UNDERSTAND, SERI, THAT ASKING A MAN TO HOLD HIS YEAR’S WORK SO THAT YOU MAY FILL YOUR STOMACH IS UNWORTHY OF ONE IN THE POSITION YOU HAVE BEEN GIVEN IN LIFE.”
Она оставляла мое хныканье без внимания, лишь однажды заметив: «Когда-нибудь ты поймешь, Сейри, что просить человека придержать работу за целый год, пока ты набьешь желудок, недостойно того положения, которое дано тебе в жизни».
