I don't care what you told her we all get peeved sometimes and want to blow off steam, that's natural but if you wanted to keep it dark, why didn't you advertise it in the Dauntless, or get a megaphone and stand on top of the hotel and holler, or do anything besides spill it to her!" "I know. You told me. But she was so motherly.

"Serves you right," Amanda told him with impish delight. "I hope every cross-eyed, pigeon-toed girl in the county meets you and walks with you!" "Feel better now, Sis?" His grin brought laughter to the crowd and Amanda's peeved feeling was soon gone. It was true, Martin Landis spent many hours at the Reist farmhouse.

"I'll have to call McLaurin " Kendall hurried away with a broad, broad smile. "Hello, Tom?" The telephone rattled in a peeved sort of way. "Yes, it is. What now? And when am I going to see you in a social sort of way again?"
Now and then he glanced up gratefully at Helen May, who continued to speak of him in a commiserating tone. "He sure has taken a notion to you," Starr persisted between mouthfuls.
