The doorbell rang and Mrs．Carson opened the front door．Her heart sank(下沉)when she saw Mrs．Burbridge．Whenever Mrs．Burbridge called, she would stay for hours and hours．
“Good afternoon, Mrs．Carson,”Mrs．Burbridge said．
“Do come in．”
Just as Mrs．Carson had feared, Mrs．Burbridge stayed for several hours．It was six o'clock and Mr．Carson would be home from work soon．Mrs．Carson kept wondering how she would ask Mrs．Burbridge to leave without making her angry．“He your husband got home from work yet?”Mrs．Carson asked．“Oh, yes，”Mrs．Burbridge answered．“He always comes home at about five o'clock．”
“It's nearly six o'clock．Won't he be getting worried about you?”Mrs．Carson asked．“I thought of that,”Mrs．Burbridge said,“But it's so pleasant here．We've had such a lovely afternoon．You know what I will do? I'll ring up my husband and tell him to come round, too．May I use your phone, please?”
