"You dear little goose!" says Vee, reachin' out impetuous and givin' her a hug. "And where do you think you're going, you and your Arabella?" "I don't know," says Helma. "Only I mustn't let them put me in a home; for then I couldn't go with Daddums when he came out you see?" Sure, we saw that and a lot more.
Daddy you you frighten me when you look at me like that! I don't know what you mean! What-do-you-mean?" He was helpless and at bay and took her in his arms and kissed her hair. "I guess your old daddy is a jealous pig and can't bear to share his girl with anyone. Can't bear to to give her up." "You won't be giving up, daddums. I couldn't stand that, either. It will be three of us then. You'll see.
In fact, after I've explained how a relation of Allston's had asked me to look him up he fixes it so I can get a pass into the Tombs. Followin' which I blows Whitey to one of Farroni's seventy-five-cent spaghetti banquets and then goes home to think a few chunks of thought. As the case stood it looked bad for Daddums. A party like Mrs.
"Helma's been talkin'!" "She's a chatty youngster," says I, "and she thinks a heap of her Daddums. I ain't sure, though, whether you come first or Arabella." If I hadn't been watchin' for it, I might not have noticed, but the quiver that begins in the fingers grippin' the bars runs clear up to the sagged shoulders. His mouth twitches nervous, and then he gets hold of himself.
"This is my dear Arabella," says Helma in her old-maid way. "I suppose I'm too old to play with dolls now; but I I can't give her up. Only the night before Daddums went off I missed her for a while and thought she was lost. I cried myself to sleep. But what do you think? In the morning I found her again, right beside me on the pillow. I haven't gone a step without her since."
"May I go with you? May I?" And as I tucked 'em into a taxi, Arabella and all, Vee whispers: "Torchy, if you're any good at all, you'll go straight and find out all about Daddums and just make them let him out!" "Eh?" says I. "Make 'em say, ain't that some life-sized order?" "Perhaps," says she. "But you needn't come to see us until you've found him. Good-by!" Just like that I got it!
"The case being that of a little girl," says I, "she wanders around until she's collected by a cop, turned over to the Children's Society, and committed to some home." "But I mustn't go there," says she, glancin' around scary. "No, not to a home. Daddums said not to." "Did, eh?" says I. "Then why don't he By the way, just where is Daddums?" "Taken up," says she. "You mean pinched?" says I.
So I steps in quiet where the youngster is busy with the comb and brush. "Someone special to see Miss Helma," says I. "To see me?" says she, droppin' pussy and gazin' at the door. "Why, who can O-o-o-o-o! Daddums! Daddums!" And as they rush to a fond clinch in one room something happens to me in the other. Uh-huh!
