“Good-night!” she said, holding out her hand. I had already noticed what pretty hands Kate had.

“Forgive me!” I begged.

“Never!” she replied.

“You are serious?” I questioned, and she understood what I meant as if I had said it. I do like people who can read between the lines!

She amended her “never” to, “Well, not till I have had my chance to even the score.”

“Take it now.”

“I haven’t time.”

“I will submit to anything.”

“My revenge must be deep.”

“I will do the thing I most hate.”
