"Well, it will take a lot more than candy or flowers to make me forget a sock like that."
"Ah, gee, honey—you can have anything you want—just name it. Let me get you a nice apartment, and some clothes, open an account for you—just anything to show you I do really love you, and I only want you to marry me—will you?"
"No, I won't marry you—but I'll think about the apartment and the other stuff you mentioned."
"Ah, that's great—I gotta go now—I gotta meet a guy on some business about the mine—I'll be back tonight."
"Aw—alright, go ahead—I'll be here when you get back—you've seen to that, all right," as he came over to kiss her—"Never mind kissing me—I'm still mad."
"I love you—can't you understand that," as he took her in his arms.
A rap came on the door.
"Who's there," called Pearl.
"It's me—Ev," came the voice.
"Come on in."
