BOBBY. We won't tell anybody.
JANE (eagerly). Bobby!
BOBBY (nodding). Just you and me. Nobody else for a long time. A little private secret.
JANE. Bobby!
BOBBY (coming to her). Is it a bargain, Jane? Because if it's a bargain——
JANE (going away from him). No, no, Bobby. Not now. I must go upstairs and tidy myself—no, I mustn't, I must wait for Melisande—no, Bobby, don't. Not yet. I mean it, really. Do go, dear, anybody might come in.
(BOBBY, who has been following her round the hall, as she retreats nervously, stops and nods to her.)
BOBBY. All right, darling, I'll go.
JANE. You mustn't say "darling." You might say it accidentally in front of them all.
BOBBY (grinning). All right, Miss Bagot . . . I am going now, Miss Bagot. (At the windows) Good-bye, Miss Bagot. (JANE blows him a kiss. He bows) Your favour to hand, Miss Bagot. (He turns and sees MELISANDE coming through the garden) Hallo, here's Sandy! (He hurries off in the opposite direction!)
