Nan Monologue from The Power of Darkness

From The Power of Darkness by Leo, graf Tolstoy

female · anguished · 56 sec

She wants you to come out. She says, "I only want to say a word to Nikíta." I began asking, but she won't tell, but only says, "Is it true he's leaving you?" And I say, "No, only his father wanted to take him away and get him to marry, but he won't, and is going to stay with us another year." And she says, "For goodness' sake send him out to me. I must see him," she says, "I must say a word to him somehow." She's been waiting a long time. Why don't you go? NIKÍTA. Bother her! What should I go for?
