about four o'clock
`` Katie ! '' `` Well , that 's what I call it . I 'm not blind . Do n't I hear her dressing up about four o'clock every afternoon , and , when she 's all ready , sittin ' in the parlor with the door open , and a book on her knee , as if she 'd been reading all afternoon ? If he does n't stop , she 's at the foot of the stairs , calling up to him . ` K. , ' she says , ` K. , I 'm waiting to ask you something ! ' or , ` K. , would n't you like a cup of tea ? '
