Tragical, certainly; for herein the elements of comedy seem to be wanting. But then Fate is so pessimistic.Anson nodded. "I'll be here," he promised.

"No, I don't—don't—need any dog," I said softly, hardly glancing out from under my lashes, because I was afraid to risk looking straight at him again so soon.

"How's he to know what you mean by 'fishin'-outfit?' He likely thinks you mean a rod and reel. Better push along and mind your own business.
