Перевод текста. ток не с переводчика. your note written in your own hand — and a pretty uneven hand! – came this morning. i am so sorry that you have been ill; i would not have bothered you with my affairs if i had known. yes, i will tell you the trouble, but it's . sort of complicated to write, and very private. please don't keep this letter, but burn it. before i begin- here's a check for one thousand dollars. it seems funny, doesn't it, for me to be sending a check to you? where do you think i got it? i've sold my story, daddy. it's going to be published serially in seven parts, and then in a book! you might think i'd be wild with joy, but i'm not. i'm entirely apathetic. of course i'm glad to begin paying you — i owe you over two thousand more. it's coming in instalments. now don't be horrid, please, about taking it, because it makes me happy to return it. i owe you a great deal more than the mere money, and the rest i will continue to pay all my life in gratitude and affection. and now, daddy, about the other thing; please give me your most practical advice, whether you think i'll like it or not. you know that i've always had a very special feeling towards you; you sort of represented my whole family, but you won't mind, will you, if i tell you that i have a very much more special feeling for another man? you can probably guess without much trouble who he is. i suspect that my letters have been very full of master jervie for a very long time. i wish i could make you understand what he is like and how entirely companionable we are. we think the same about everything- i am afraid i have a tendency to make over my ideas to match his! but he is almost always right; he ought to be, you know, for he has fourteen years' start of me. in other ways, though, he's just an overgrown boy, and he does need looking after - he hasn't any sense about wearing rubbers when it rains. and he is -oh, well! he is just himself, and i miss him, and miss him. the whole world seems empty and aching. i hate the moonlight because it's beautiful and he isn't here to see it with me. but maybe you've loved somebody, too, and you know? if you have, i don't need to explain; if you haven't, 1 can't explain anyway, that's the way i feel — and i've refused to marry him. i didn't tell him why; i was just dumb and miserable. i couldn't think of anything to say. and now he has gone away imagining that i want marry jimmie mc bride — i don’t in the least, i wouldn't think of marrying jimmie; he isn't grown up enough. but master jervie and i got into a dreadful state of misunderstanding, and we both hurt each other's feelings. the reason i sent him away was not because i didn't care for him, but because i cared for him so much. i was afraid he would regret it in the future and couldn't stand that! it didn't seem right for a person of my lack of antecedents to marry into any such family as his. i never told him about the orphan asylum, and i hated to explain that i didn't know who i was. i may be dreadful, you know. and his family are proud — and i'm proud, too!
