Пересказ на в презент симпл
the girl in grey comes to that quiet corner of the small park every day. her simple dress fits her perfectly. the girl is slim and very beautiful.
the young man also comes to that park every day. he is eager1 to get acquainted with the girl but he doesn’t know how to introduce himself.
the girl is sitting on a bench reading a book. suddenly she drops the book. the man picks it up and returns the book to the girl.
the girl is looking at him, at his ordinary coat and his common face. he is embarrassed2.
“do you know that you are the most attractive girl i’ve ever seen? ” he says. but the girl interrupts him. “whoever you are,” she says in an icy tone, “you
must remember that i am a lady.”
“i beg your pardon,” pleads the young man, “it is my fault.”
“stop excusing3, if you please. let’s better speak about these people who are passing by. where are they going? why are they hurrying so? are they happy? ” “it is interesting to watch them,” he replies. “it is the wonderful drama of life. some are going to supper and some to – er – other places. i want to
know their histories.”
“i do not,” says the girl; “i am not so inquisitive. i come here because it’s the only place4 where i can be among simple people. i am very rich, i am tired of money. i am sick of pleasure, of parties, of travel, of society.”
the young man looks at her with interest and astonishment. “as to me, i always had an idea that money must be5 a very good thing,” he says.
“not when you are very rich,” returns the girl in grey. she is smiling. “you don’t seem to be a rich man. it is such a comfort to speak with a man unspoiled by money6. by the way7, what is your profession? ” she asks.
the young man hesitates for a moment. “i am a cashier in ” – he looks at the brilliant electric sign “restaurant” across the street – “i am a cashier in that restaurant you see there.”
the girl looks at her watch and rises hurriedly. “why aren’t you working then? ” she asks.
“i am on the night turn today8,” says the young man; “it is yet an hour before my work begins. may i hope to see you again? ”

“i do not know. perhaps. but now i must go quickly. there is a dinner, and a box9 at the play – and, oh! i am so tired of all these things. perhaps you noticed the white automobile, which is waiting for me at the entrance. i always come in that.”
“may i accompany you to the auto? it is dark now,” says the young man. “if you respect my wishes,” says the girl firmly, “you will remain here while i am
going to my auto. i don’t want my driver pierre to see you.” and she goes away. the young man looks at her elegant figure and then goes after her. the girl is passing the white auto and quickly enters the restaurant with the brilliant
electric sign. she takes the cashier’s place. the young man smiles and walks slowly back. he gets in the white automobile and says two words to the driver:
“club, henry.”
