"Yes, I do. I can't do without my children ... like this."
"But you'll see them now and again."
"Yes. So, if she does come back, you promise, Dad...."
"That I'll try."
"And, if they will all try, then ... then I shall be happy."
"Yes, they'll do it, for your sake. But...."
"If she comes back, I honestly believe ... that she will have learnt ... also to try ... to like us all a little."
"You mustn't be angry, Addie, that it was not like that at once. She is so different ... from all of us."
"Yes, it's my fault."
"No, my boy, don't go thinking that and worrying about it."
