Don’t worry me to-night, Claude; my head’s aching so that I feel I could scream.

Claude.

[With the tenderest concern.] My poor child, why didn’t you tell me? I’m so sorry I’ve been bothering you. Is it very bad?

Grace.

What a beast I am! How can you like me when I’m so absolutely horrid to you?

Claude.

My darling, I don’t blame you for having a headache.

Grace.

I’m sorry I was beastly to you just now.

Claude.
