“The household doesn't allow any of us girls much chance to be with men of our own class—we're not meant to fall in love and get married, only to drudge on and on in service until we dry up and go gray and our teeth fall out. And here I am acting like an idiot over a man who's shown no interest in me, save keeping me from harm like any decent human being would.”
