Hilda. Why?
Jamie. Oh, because I wanted to walk on and on alone with you—just you. I wanted to talk to you as we're talking now, but I couldn't with so many folks everywhere. But I had my chance when we started for home. I looked for interference; that's why I suggested separate carriages.
Hilda [indifferently]. I knew it.
Jamie. You did? Now that shows you know more than I do. I didn't think you'd understand.
Hilda. Did you really think me as dense as all that?
Jamie. I'm afraid I did. But I shan't again. I shall tell you everything, hereafter. I find I might as well.
Hilda [earnestly]. Yes, you might, just exactly as well, for I shall know, anyway.
Jamie. I wonder if they had a good time.
Hilda. Who; Herbert and Minnie? Of course they did.
