`` Then -- good-bye , '' said Roy . `` I ca n't understand it -- I ca n't believe you are not the woman I 've believed you to be . But reproaches are idle between us . You are the only woman I can ever love . I thank you for your friendship , at least . Good-bye , Anne . '' `` Good-bye , '' faltered Anne . When Roy had gone she sat for a long time in the pavilion , watching a white mist creeping subtly and remorselessly landward up the harbor . It was her hour of humiliation and self-contempt and shame . Their waves went over her . And yet , underneath it all , was a queer sense of recovered freedom . She slipped into Patty 's Place in the dusk and escaped to her room . But Phil was there on the window seat . `` Wait , '' said Anne , flushing to anticipate the scene . `` Wait til you hear what I have to say . Phil , Roy asked me to marry him-and I refused . '' `` You -- you REFUSED him ? '' said Phil blankly . `` Yes . '' `` Anne Shirley , are you in your senses ? ''
`` I think so , '' said XXXXX wearily .
