The Diary of a Nobody
·

Lupin
said:
“Oh!
there’s
nothing
much
about
it,
except
I
have
not
once
seen
him
since
his
marriage,
and
he
said
he
was
very
pleased
to
see
me,
and
hoped
we
should
be
friends.
I
stood
a
drink
to
cement
the
friendship,
and
he
stood
me
a
new
hat—
one
of
his
own.”
I
said
rather
wearily:
“But
you
have
not
told
me
your
old
friend’s
name?”
Lupin
said,
with
affected
carelessness:
“Oh
didn’t
I?
Well,
I
will.
It
was
Murray
Posh.”
MAY
14.—
Lupin
came
down
late,
and
seeing
me
at
home
all
the
morning,
asked
the
reason
of
it.
Carrie
and
I
both
agreed
it
was
better
to
say
nothing
to
him
about
the
letter
I
was
writing,
so
I
evaded
the
question.
Lupin
went
out,
saying
he
was
going
to
lunch
with
Murray
Posh
in
the
City.
I
said
I
hoped
Mr.
Posh
would
provide
him
with
a
berth.
Lupin
went
out
laughing,
saying:
“I
don’t
mind
wearing
Posh’s
one-priced
hats,
but
I
am
not
going
to
sell
them.”
Poor
boy,
I
fear
he
is
perfectly
hopeless.
It
took
me
nearly
the
whole
day
to
write
to
Mr.
Crowbillon.
Once
or
twice
I
asked
Carrie
for
suggestions;
and
although
it
seems
ungrateful,
her
suggestions
were
none
of
them
to
the
point,
while
one
or
two
were
absolutely
idiotic.
Of
course
I
did
not
tell
her
so.
I
got
the
letter
off,
and
took
it
down
to
the
office
for
Mr.
Perkupp
to
see,
but
he
again
repeated
that
he
could
trust
me.
