Audiobook Dictation: “I was all right until I…”

I was all right until I knew you were in town.

Eu estava bem até saber que estavas na cidade.

If you'd sent me a note, or telephoned me, or anything!

Se me tivesses mandado um bilhete, ou telefonado, ou qualquer coisa!

But you won't let me write to you, and I had to see you after that letter, that terrible letter you wrote me when you got home."

Mas não me deixas escrever-te, e eu tinha de te ver depois daquela carta, aquela carta terrível que me escreveste quando chegaste a casa.

"Is this the way you mean to answer it, Hilda?" he asked unsteadily.

— É assim que tencionas responder-lhe, Hilda? — perguntou ele, com a voz trémula.

She was afraid to look up at him.

Ela tinha medo de levantar os olhos para ele.

"I came to tell you that I'm willing to do as you asked me.

— Vim dizer-te que estou disposta a fazer o que me pediste.

But it's no use talking about that now.

Mas agora não adianta falar nisso.

Give me my things, please." She put her hand out toward the fender.

Dá-me as minhas coisas, por favor. — Estendeu a mão para o guarda-fogo.

Alexander sat down on the arm of her chair.

Alexander sentou-se no braço da poltrona dela.

"Did you think I had forgotten you were in town, Hilda?

— Pensaste que eu me tinha esquecido de que estavas na cidade, Hilda?
