Meaning of "ast"
Hi, I have read a paragraph in "the violent bear it away" by O'connor and i found the meaning of "ast" nowhere. Please help me by the meaning of this word. This paragraph is like this:
"where we going?" Trawater asked after they had walked out of the business streets and were passing between rows of grey bulbous houses with sooty porches that overhung the sidewalks. "Listen," he said, hitting at his uncle's hip, "I never ast to come."
"You would have ast to come soon enough," the old man muttered.
