The Diary of a Chambermaid (46 page)
‘You didn’t put on such airs when you were sleeping around with every Tom, Dick and Harry,’ cried Joseph.
‘And what about you? Why, when you … But there, let’s drop it, or I shall be saying too much …’
‘Whore!’
‘Thief!’
At that moment a customer came in … We immediately changed the subject, and that night we kissed and made up …
I’m going to have a lovely Alsatian costume made … all silk and velvet. When it comes to the point, I can’t deny Joseph anything. I may occasionally rebel, but I belong to him, he possesses me like a demon. And I’m happy to belong to him … I know that I shall always do whatever he wants me to, always go as far as he tells me to … even if it means committing a crime!
