CHAPTER 6
Agnes's warnings
My time at Doctor Strong's school passed very quickly and soon I was facing a new future out in the world. The only problem was I didn't know what I wanted to do.
‘Now you've stopped being a schoolboy, you need a break. Clear your head. Why don't you go and visit that family with the strange name,' suggested Aunt Betsey.
‘You mean the Peggottys, Aunt,' I cried. I should love to visit them!'
'You could spend a night in London on the way,' continued Aunt Betsey. ‘See the sights.'
So a few days later, I found myself on a coach heading for London. On the way we passed Salem House. I stared at the high walls and shuddered as I thought of Mr Creakle. How I would have loved to storm inside and let all of the boys escape --- like freeing caged sparrows. I rented a room in a hotel near Charing Cross, amazed at my own daring. As I was waiting for supper, I saw a young man stride into the hotel and I recognized him immediately.
'Steerforth!' I cried with joy, hurrying over to his side.
He looked at me blankly for a few seconds, and then suddenly realised who I was.‘Little Copperfield!' he exclaimed, with surprise. ' What are you doing here '
'I'm going down to Yarmouth to see Peggott and Dan,'I told him. Why don't you come with me '
'Tve nothing to do,' he agreed carelessly.'So why not '
We arrived at Dan Peggotty's in the middle of a joyful celebration.
'What's happening ' I asked, when I heard the laughter and saw the smiles on everyone's faces.
‘Ham and Emily have just announced their engagement!' cried Dan, beaming with happiness.
I was delighted for them, and Steerforth immediately made himself popular with everyone, giving compliments, telling stories and making us all laugh. It was after midnight when we left Dan's house and set out for our lodgings.
'Emily is very beautiful,' said Steerforth thoughtfully.
'I agree,' I grinned. ' She and Ham will make an excellent couple.'
Steerforth frowned. I'm not sure about that,' he said. 'I don't think Ham is good enough for Emily.'
I stopped and eyed Steerforth with shock. 'That's a pretty harsh thing to say!' I protested.
A twinkle of laughter appeared in Steerforth's eyes and I thought he was joking. But later, I realised how stupid I had been not to realise what was happening.
The following morning, I asked Steerforth if he wanted to come over to my childhood home with me.
'Thanks, Copperfield,' he replied quickly, 'but the sea is calling me.' Steerforth was an excellent sailor and he claimed to want to go sailing down the coast.
Going back to my old house was a strange and sad experience. The garden had run wild and half of the windows had been shut up. The Murdstones had clearly moved on.
The next day, and the next, I went walking near my old home while Steerforth went sailing. One evening I returned and was surprised to find Steerforth, slumped in front of the fire, lost in thought.
'How was boating today ' I asked him.
My voice gave him a start and he looked gloomily into the fire.
'What's the matter ' I asked.
'It's just me, Copperfield,' he muttered. ' I'm feeling very low today.'
'What do you mean ' I asked, but he went on staring into the fire and didn't reply.
I was puzzled by Steerforth's odd behaviour, but he wasn't the only one who was acting strangely. Emily had suddenly become nervous and moody. One night when we were all together, she suddenly burst out crying. 'You should have chosen someone better than me!' she sobbed to Ham. 'I'm no good for you!'
I was amazed by this outburst. Ham and Emily seemed to be so in love. Had something gone wrong between them I just couldn't work it out. At last I had to return to Dover to decide on my future. Aunt Betsey and I talked about what I was going to do, and eventually we decided that I should become a lawyer.
'I have arranged for us to visit the office of a law firm in London called Spenlow and Jorkins.' She told me one day. 'I'm hoping they'll offer you a job.'
To my excitement, Mr Spenlow agreed to take me on. 'But there is one condition,' he explained pleasantly. ‘ You need to pay one thousand pounds to cover our training costs.'
My heart sank. One thousand pounds! It was a huge sum of money.
'Agreed,' replied Aunt Betsey.
I turned to her in astonishment. 'I can't let you pay!' I insisted.' I really can't.'
'Nonsense!' she replied. ‘I shall spend my money as I wish.'
That same day she found me a comfortable set of rooms overlooking the river Thames. I couldn't believe my luck!I was so grateful to Aunt Betsey, for her kindness and generosity. Life in London was going to be good. It was in this happy state of mind that I received a surprise visitor - my good friend, Agnes Wickfield.
I could instantly see from her face that something serious was troubling her.
'I'm very worried about one of your friends,' she told me.
I pulled a face. 'And who's that ' I asked.
'Steerforth,' she replied....

Agnes could see how strongly I felt, so she quickly dropped the subject and moved on.
'I also need to talk to you about Uriah Heep,' she said....

I found it almost impossible to sleep that night. I tossed and turned as the thought of Uriah scheming to marry Agnes was simply too horrible to consider.

I found it almost impossible to sleep that night. I tossed and turned as the thought of Uriah scheming to marry Agnes was simply too horrible to consider.
'Steerforth!' I cried. 'What's the matter with him '
'All I'm saying is that I know he's kind and charming, but he's also rich and used to having everything he wants...'
'I won't hear of it!'I protested. 'Steerforth's one of my oldest friends!'
'I'm scared that he has some kind of hold over my father and he's using it to hurt him. I'm sure Uriah wants to become his partner in the firm.'
'The worm!' I declared with outrage, as I remembered Uriah's insistence that he was too "umble' ever to be Mr Wickfield's partner. 'You must stop this happening, Agnes!'
'I can't,' she replied and she blushed 'Uriah knows my father isn't as quick as he used to be, and he plays games with him.'
I guessed that Uriah must have tricked Mr Wickfield into making some bad mistakes in his work. Perhaps Uriah was threatening to reveal his errors to the outside world to ruin his legal career.
'I'll deal with Uriah!' I seethed.
'Please don't do anything!' Agnes begged me. 'It would just cause more trouble for my father. Be friendly towards Uriah. That way you may find out exactly what he's up to.'
I had to admit that Agnes was right. Uriah was a powerful enemy and if I let him know how I felt he would be on his guard.I promised to hold my temper and to try to discover what his plans were.
Not long after this, Agnes and I were at a party where he too was a guest. His slimy behaviour was almost unbearable that night. Whenever I spoke to Agnes, he hovered nearby, listening in to our conversation. I could hardly bear it. But I remembered the promise I'd made to Agnes and as the party drew to a close, I approached him.
'Uriah,' I said, forcing myself to look friendly 'why don't you come back to my rooms for coffee '
He leaped at the chance. 'Oh what an honour it is for an 'umble person like myself to be invited to the rooms of such a person as yourself,' he oozed.
And so, a short time later that night, Uriah sat at my table.
'It's a shame about Mr Wickfield,' he said pretending to sigh. ' He has got himself into so much trouble. He's very lucky to have me around to help him. And if I wasn't to help him...' Uriah looked at me with a cold, calculating glare, .. things would go very 'ard for him. Very 'ard.'
'Liar!' I thought. ‘You're the one who has got him into trouble!'
'But it's not Mr Wickfield I have my eye on,' Uriah said, leaning forward and rubbing his clammy hands together. 'I have a soft spot for his daughter, Agnes.'
I felt my blood boil. Uriah had plans to marry Agnes! He wasn't fit to wipe dirt off her shoes. I thought of challenging him to a fight, but I resisted.
‘Have you told Agnes of your feelings 'I managed to say.
‘Oh no,' replied Uriah, 'and I would appreciate it if you said nothing. Let's keep it as our little secret.' And he smiled in a slimy, unpleasant way that made me shudder.
