"Come for a walk, or take me to the pictures." "And then?" asked Doggie, swinging to his feet. "If we get on all right, we can fix up something for to-morrow." She was pretty, with a fair, frizzy, insolent prettiness. She might have been any age from fourteen to four-and-twenty. Doggie smiled, tempted to while away a dark hour.
