she asked . `` She 'll have to , '' said Anne . `` I 'll NEVER go to school to that man again . '' `` Oh , Anne ! '' Diana looked as if she were ready to cry . `` I do think you 're mean . What shall I do ? Mr. Phillips will make me sit with that horrid Gertie Pye -- I know he will because she is sitting alone . Do come back , Anne . '' `` I 'd do almost anything in the world for you , Diana , '' said Anne sadly . `` I 'd let myself be torn limb from limb if it would do you any good . But I ca n't do this , so please do n't ask it . You harrow up my very soul . '' `` Just think of all the fun you will miss , '' mourned Diana . `` We are going to build the loveliest new house down by the brook ; and we 'll be playing ball next week and you 've never played ball , Anne . It 's tremendously exciting . And we 're going to learn a new song -- Jane Andrews is practicing it up now ; and Alice Andrews is going to bring a new Pansy book next week and we 're all going to read it out loud , chapter about , down by the brook . And you know you are so fond of reading out loud , Anne . '' Nothing moved Anne in the least . Her mind was made up .
She would not go to school to Mr. XXXXX again ; she told Marilla so when she got home .
