She quickened her step, and passing the house where lived Jim, could not help looking up; he was standing at the door watching her, with a smile on his lips. SHE QUICKENED A STEP AND PASSING THE HOUSE WHERE JIM LIVED COULD NOT HELP LOOKING UP HE WAS STANDING AT THE DOOR WATCHING HER WITH A SMILE ON HIS LIPS
le two others were standing horror-stricken, listening to a youth who was in the passage, knocking at the door. 'You see, they've 'killed im,' said Sally, excitedly. 'Yus, any fool can see thet! an' the one ahtside, wot's 'e doin' of?' 'Ain't 'e beautiful? I'll git my 'Arry ter tike me, I will. I should like ter see it. 'E said 'e'd tike me to the ply.' They strolled on again, and Liza, leaving Sally, made her way to her mother's. She knew she must pass Jim's house, and wondered whether she would see him. But as she walked along the street she saw Tom coming the opposite way; with a sudden impulse she turned back so as not to meet him, and began walking the way she had come. Then thinking herself a fool for what she had done, she turned again and walked towards him. She wondered if she had seen her or noticed her movement, but when she looked down the street he was nowhere to be seen; he had not caught sight of her, and had evidently gone in to see a mate in one or other of the houses.
