“Look here，” said the girl. “I don’t mind going with you， Mr War.Horse， but what about this boy？ How do I know he‘s not a spy？”
“Why don’t you say at once that you think I‘m not good enough for you？” said Shasta.
“Be quiet， Shasta，” said Bree. “The Tarkheena’s question is quite reasonable. I‘ll vouch for the boy， Tarkheena. He’s been true to me and a good friend. And he‘s certainly either a Narnian or an Archenlander.”
“All right， then. Let’s go together.” But she didn‘t say anything to Shasta and it was obvious that she wanted Bree， not him.
“Splendid！” said Bree. “And now that we’ve got the water between us and those dreadful animals， what about you two humans taking off our saddles and our all having a rest and hearing one another‘s stories.”
