We had not sat long thus, when another person came in.
Only one person ever came to see him these days.
He looked up but the person hadn't come into view yet.
And then maybe six months or a year later, the same person is coming back again.
I would always look ahead and speak to the person coming toward me.
Eyes will watch and see that only one person comes.
Why should that person come over here and take my job?
He knew that some other person had come into the room.
Maybe this person would just come in, get something, then leave.
If so, whatever the reason for the visit, that person must have come on his own feet.
