Patricia flung the sewing aside and threw her arms about her friend in a tempest of contrition. "I didn't mean to be horrid," she cried. "You know I wouldn't really be so selfish—if I thought you wanted it. But we have been so happy together here, and I wanted it to go onto the end, just like a beautiful story that ends happily. I'm sorry I seemed mean." "No; but I fancy her reason is." "Bruce says we're going to a French restaurant," she announced proudly. "I hope I can remember enough French to talk politely.
