“Is that the only reason you came back?”
“No. It’s you and me. There’s nobody else. I love you, Cora. But love, when you get fear in it, it’s not love any more. It’s hate.”
“So you hate me?”
“I don’t know. But we’re telling the truth, for once in our life. That’s part of it. You got to know it. And what I was lying here thinking, that’s the reason. Now you know it.”
“I told you I had something to tell you, Frank.”
“Oh.”
“I’m going to have a baby.”
“What?”
“I suspicioned it before I went away, and right after my mother died I was sure.”
“The hell you say. The hell you say. Come here. Give me a kiss.”
