Nellie.

When did you begin to love me?

Freddie.

Well, you know, I was awfully flattered by your caring for me.

Nellie.

Oh!... [There is a pause.] I don’t think I quite understand.

Freddie.

[Opening his arms.] Darling!

Nellie.

[Cuddling in them.] Oh, it makes me feel so delightfully wicked. I know I oughtn’t to let you kiss me. I know it’s treachery to poor Gerald.
