“But?”
Nancy only laughed, a bit embarrassed.
“I know what you’re thinking, and I feel the same way—that we’d be better off by ourselves, even if we had only a very small establishment to start with.”
“I’m glad that you feel that way too. But, how funny we are?” and Nancy stopped to laugh.
“Why?”
“We decided yesterday to be only friends, until June.”
“Well, we’re just thinking what we’ll do when we’re more than friends.”
“When?” repeated Nancy. “If, you mean.”
“When, I said,” replied Jim decidedly.
“Mother will want you to come here and make us a visit sometime before summer,” he continued.
