She began suddenly: "You may go if you want to! If any little stupid thing can make you never want to come near us any more, go! I shan't run after you again, anyway. We don't understand that kind of thing, but then we're not cold-blooded Englishmen!"

He had grown very red, but he looked rather amused.
"Why don't you go? I'll tell Denis not to come round worrying you—" Quite suddenly she stopped. The pink colour leapt to her cheeks; she gave a little, shamefaced laugh, "Oh, Ted, it's just like—that—that first night!"
"Just what I was thinking."
There was a little silence.
"Nell, why did you come after me?"
"Because I wanted to ask you something."
"Well?"
"I wanted to know where you got that waistcoat," demurely.
