"I-I fair hate this here farm!" He mumbled. "Morning and night;-and morning and night. Nothing but chores and earth. And then some more of them chores. And always that there way. So it is! Always! And the stillness! Nothing alive, nothing! Sometimes I ain't able to stand it nohow. Sometimes-!"
A lamp was lighted on the center table. The one window was uncurtained. Through the naked spot of it the evening glow poured shimmeringly into the room.
Inside the doorway they both paused.
"You set down, Benny."
He pulled a chair up to the table.
She took a steaming pot from the stove and emptying it into a plate, placed the dish before him.
He fell to eating silently.
She came and sat opposite him. She watched him cautiously. She did not want him to know that she was watching him. Whenever he glanced up she hurried her eyes away from his face. In the stillness the only live things were those two pair of eyes darting away from each other
"Naw, Benny-. Not-away-. What'd you go away for, when it pays? After all them years I gave to it?"
His spoon clattered noisily to his plate. He pushed his chair back from the table. The legs of it rasped loudly along the uncarpeted floor. He got to his feet.
"Let's go on outside," he said. "There ain't no sense to this here talking-and talking."
She glanced up at him. Her eyes were narrow and hard.
"All right, Benny. I'll clear up. I'll be along in a minute. All right, Benny."
He slouched heavily out of the room.
