Gregor soon had the opportunity to test the strength of his decisions,
as early the next morning, almost before the night had ended, his
sister, nearly fully dressed, opened the door from the front room and
looked anxiously in. She did not see him straight away, but when she did
notice him under the couch—he had to be somewhere, for God’s sake, he
couldn’t have flown away—she was so shocked that she lost control of
herself and slammed the door shut again from outside. But she seemed to
regret her behavior, as she opened the door again straight away and came
in on tip-toe as if entering the room of someone seriously ill or even
of a stranger.
