But before he had time to touch the handle of the street-door, the girl was once more before him; she stopped him. 'You are going,' she began, looking warmly into his face; 'I will not keep you, but you must be sure to come to see us this evening: we are so indebted to you--you, perhaps, saved my brother's life, we want to thank you--mother wants to. You must tell us who you are, you must rejoice with us ...' 'But I am leaving for Berlin to-day,' Sanin faltered out. 'You will have time though,' the girl rejoined eagerly. 'Come to us in an hour's time to drink a cup of chocolate with us. You promise? I must go back to him! You will come?'
What could Sanin do? 'I will come,' he replied. <strong>The</strong> beautiful girl pressed his hand, fluttered away, and he found himself in the street.
