"A nice welcome home!" She laughed breathlessly. "I was just about to make a graceful and silent exit."
"But, Gina, I didn't know."
"Of course you didn't know. You couldn't. I wouldn't write. I wanted to surprise you. Aren't you surprised, Billy?"
"Awfully," he conceded.
"Awfully?"
Her brows puckered.
"Very much so, I mean."
"You never do know just what you do mean. Do you, William?"
"Naturally, I do."
