- Have you ever been to Bath before ?
- I muss confess, it's my first time
- There is nothing to be ashamed of. There is always a first time. I'm sure you will enjoy the delight of the season.
- I hope so. I'm very looking forward to be delighted by everything. i've been longing to go to Bath for years, but my dad was not very kind of leaving our house. Without Lizzie and my brother in law, I don't think I would ever have come.
- Oh really. Don't you think your husband would have bring you there... Well, of course when you will be married. Do you... dou you... you wish to get married, one day ?"

Kitty was all astonishement. Mr. Grant, whom she had met only a few weeks before, was almost proposing in the middle of the pump room, while Lizzy was taken appart by an old friend of Mr. Darcy. She didn't know whaat to do, and how to act in such a situation. yet, Mr Grant was young, taller than her and had a very nice carnation. He was nice, always had something to say to her when they met in Herbforshire. But he had never clearly be flirting or courting he before. She had seen nothing in him but a lover. And now, in Bath, after only a few days... was he jealous of Mr. Osbourn?

She was desperatly looking for an answer when he said : " I'm sorry Miss Kitty, I'm afraid I've gone a little too far. Let's agree on the fact that it is commonly thought that every single girl in age to get married want to get married."

She was relieved, and smiled at him while Lizzy was comming back to her.

"Kitty, i'm afraid I have to go back to Laura's Place now, Mr. Darcy is to come back from his day out fishing. Are you coming back with me ? If ever you want to stay a little, with Mr Grant and his sister, you are totally free. Mama won't blame me for keeping you locked in your room. I'm sure that Mr. Grant won't be against taking you home later. I will make tea, we will have a lovely time and then get ready for the theater ?"
