简爱 Jane43 - Chapter 12 The Gypsy

　　"All right," I said. I was curious to see the gypsy.

　　She was sitting in the library, reading a little black book. Her black scarf covered most of her face, but when she lifted her head, I saw her dark eyes.

　　"So, young lady! You are here to learn your future!" she said.

　　"Well, I must warn you, I don't believe in your skill." I said.

　　"I thought so! But I'm very powerful, you know! Why don't you tremble?"

　　"I'm not cold."

　　"Why don't you turn pale?"

　　"I'm not afraid."

　　"Why don't you ask me to tell your fortune?"

　　"I'm not a fool."

　　The old woman laughed and started smoking a short black pipe.
