'tis all right for you and her! But if any one kiss and hug ME, I got to go!" Derek drew back among the graves, as if he had been struck with a whip. If they saw you here with me, they'd say: 'Aw--look! Endangerin' another young man--poor young man!' Good mornin', Mr.Derek!" The rogue eyes followed him gravely, then once more began examining the grass, and the toe of her boot again began kicking a little hole. |
