four o'clock
I suppose Miss Bruce would call it love of admiration , and wish me to snub the poor fellow , and keep him at arm 's length , but I do n't see why I should . It would be conceited to take for granted that he was seriously in love , and I do n't see why I should n't enjoy myself when I get a chance . It 's only fun , of course , but I do enjoy playing off little experiments upon Wallace , to test my power over him , and then to watch the result ! For example , at lunch-time I express a casual wish for a certain thing , and before four o'clock it is in my possession ; or I show an interest in an entertainment , and tickets appear as if by magic . It is quite exciting . I feel as if I were playing a thrilling new game . The room is almost furnished , and it looks sweet .
