I had feared that my companion would talk, but it was soon plain (rõ ràng) that there

was no such danger Two days passed during which we did not exchange a single word Heseemed, indeed, absolutely unaware of my presence He neither read nor wrote, but spent

most of his time sitting at the table and looking out of the window across the pleasant parkland that surrounded the house He sometimes talked to himself and said things half under his breath He bit his nails and once he produced a penknife and dug holes in the furniture until one of the attendants (nhân viên) took it from him I thought at first that perhaps he was mentally ill During the second day I even began to feel a little nervous of him He was extremely large, both broad and tall, with very wide shoulders and enormous hands His huge head was usually sunk low between his shoulders He had dark, rather untidy hair and a big shapeless mouth which open very now and then Once or twice he began singing to himself, but broke off abruptly (bất ngờ) on each occasion - and this was the nearest he seemed to get to noticing my presence.

By the evening of the second day I was completely unable to go on with my work Out of a mixture of nervousness and curiosity, I sat, too looking out of my window and blowing my nose, and wondering how to set about establishing the human contact which was by now becoming an absolute necessity It ended of with my asking him for his name

He had been introduced to me when he arrived, but I had paid

no attention then He turned towards me a very gently pair of dark eyes and said his name: Huge Belfounder He added:" I thought you didn't want to talk." I said that I was not at all against talking, that I had just been rather busy with something when he arrived, and I begged his pardon if I had appeared rude

It seemed to me, even from the way he spoke, that he was not only mentally ill, but was highly intelligent; and I began, almost automatically, to pack up my papers I knew that from now on I should do no more work I was sharing a room with a person of the greatest fascination
