Good luck to you ... Felix ... FELIX And if anybody should call you back ... REUMANN Nobody will.... But if I should be _needed_, I can always be found ... JOHANNA (_comes into the room again_) REUMANN Good-by ... Good-by, Miss Johanna ... JOHANNA Are you going already, Doctor? REUMANN Yes.... Give my regards to your father. Good-by.... (_He shakes her hand_) JOHANNA (_calmly_) Did he tell you that Sala is doomed? FELIX (_hesitates about what to say_) JOHANNA I knew it. (_With an odd gesture of deprecation as Felix wants to say something_) And you are going--with or without him? FELIX Yes. (_Pause_) There won't be much doing in this place after this. JOHANNA (_remains unmoved_) FELIX And how are you going to live, Johanna?... I mean, how are the two of you going to live--you and father? JOHANNA (_gives him a look as if his question surprised her_) FELIX He is going to be lonely. I think he would feel very grateful if you took a little more interest in him--if you went for a walk for him when there is time for it. And you, too ... JOHANNA (_brusquely_) How could that help me or him? What can he be to me or I to him? I was not made to assist people in days of trial. I can't help it, but that's the way I am. I seem to be stirred by a sort of hostility against people who appeal to my pity. I felt it like that all the time mother was sick. FELIX No, you were not made for that.... But what were you made for then? JOHANNA (_shrugs her shoulders and sits down as before, with hands folded in her lap and her eyes staring straight ahead_) FELIX Johanna, why do you never talk to me any more as you used to? Have you, then, nothing to tell me? Don't you remember how we used to tell each other everything? JOHANNA That was long ago. We were children then. FELIX Why can't you talk to me any longer as you did then? Have you forgotten how well we two used to understand each other? How we used to confide all our secrets to each other? What good chums we used to be?... How we wanted to go out into the wide world together? JOHANNA Into the wide world.... Oh, yes, I remember. But there is nothing left now of all those words of wonder and romance. FELIX Perhaps it depends on ourselves only. JOHANNA No, those words have no longer the same meaning as before. FELIX What do you mean? JOHANNA Into the wide world ... FELIX What is the matter, Johanna? JOHANNA
