Toby: Why?
John: I’m worried to-night—it’s good to be near you. (He is sincere.)
Toby: Is it?
John: Yes.
Toby: Then I’m glad I came.
John (getting happier): Also ... if you hadn’t come, I shouldn’t be able to give you something I’ve got for you.
Toby: A present?
John: Yes. Only I can’t give it to you now ’cos you’re cross.
Toby: Oh yes, you can.
John: No!
