Louise Monologue

From Louise by J. H. Speenhoff

female · defiant · 46 sec

Sometimes, when I'm alone. All the same, I'd rather be here. Better? What do you mean, better? I loved him. And then I yearned for freedom, for the pleasures of life and travel. At home everything was so dull and monotonous. I couldn't stand the smug people at home. Their life is one round of lying and gossiping, of scolding and backbiting. Father, I'm sorry, but I couldn't go back to them. The commonplace tattlers with their humdrum, uneventful lives scarcely exist for me.
