[What Timmy Did by Marie Adelaide Belloc Lowndes]@TWC D-Link bookWhat Timmy Did CHAPTER XX 21/23
"Now then, Godfrey, this cup is for you.
Nanna can wait a little longer for hers." He sat down opposite to her, and into both their minds there came the thought that if they had married and gone out to Australia they would have often sat thus together in the early morning. And then, when Nanna's cup of tea was at last ready, together with some nice thin bread and butter cut, he asked, "Can't I carry the tray up for you ?" She shook her head, smiling. "I suppose you'll be down again soon? Isn't there anything else I can help you with ?" But this time Betty shook her head even more decidedly than before. "Oh, no!" she exclaimed.
"I've got to make Nanna comfortable for the day, and it's a long business, for she's dreadfully particular.
As a matter of fact, Rosamund and Dolly will be down before I am.
They'll start everything going for breakfast.
