"Now, as for myself--" "Take him away, Nora," begged David.
"I will," agreed Nora.

"Come on, Hippy.

Reddy, you and Jessica help me tear him away from this corner." "How can you tear me away now?
At the precise moment when I had begun to enjoy myself, too ?" reproached Hippy.
"This is only the beginning," was Reddy's threatening answer.

"We are going to leave you stranded on the next corner.

Then you can go on enjoying yourself alone." "Try it," dared Hippy.
