And all the time I kept saying, to myself Klara Novak, what on earth is the matter with you? This Kralik is not a particularly attractive type of man.

Quote context

[...]

- My! I didn't know you had a girlfriend.

- Oh, yes, it probably isn't easy for you to imagine anyone like a man of my type.

- Oh, Mr. Kralik, don't let's start all over again. It's Christmas, and I'd like to be friends with you.

- Beside, you're wrong.

- Do you mind if I tell you something?

- No, not at all.

- Well, when I first came to work here something very strange happened to me.

- I got psychologically mixed up.

- You don't say?

- Yes. I found myself looking at you again and again. I just couldn't take my eyes off of you.

- Oh.

- Mm-hm.

- And all the time I kept saying, to myself Klara Novak, what on earth is the matter with you? This Kralik is not a particularly attractive type of man.

- I hope you don't mind.

- No, not at all.

- Now, here comes the paradox. I found myself falling for you.

- I can't believe it.

- Yes, Mr. Kralik. And very much so.

- You certainly didn't show it.

- Listen, in those first few weeks... I know you won't misconstrue what I'm going to say to you. After all, I'm very happily engaged. At least it looks that way.

- Yes. Well, go on.

- Oh, in those first few weeks, there were moments in the stockroom when you could have swept me off of my feet.

- Now I'm getting psychologically mixed up.
