“I—I—only tried to give you somethin’ different, Bernie. I—only—tried—to make you like me.”
“Then you don’t know much about girls! For instance—your clothes! Why, you came to my party looking like a—a—tramp!”
“They were my best clothes, Bernie—the best I got.”
“Then why on earth doesn’t your father buy you some new?”
“He says it’s puttin’ on style—and foolish.”
“But you look so! Can’t he see it?”
“I guess, Bernie, he don’t much care—or understand.”
“Then I’d work—and buy my own.”
