What is it, darling?
gpt
They won't let me go this afternoon, she said, with a sob.
human
They say Tiddles has a cold; but it will make her cold more ill to stay at home.
gpt
Oh poor Tiddles! sympathised Joey.
human
What frightfully hard lines. But I'll tell you all about it afterwards, darling; and it is a long drive, you know, quite nine miles, and it gets awfully cold in the late afternoon.
gpt
You could cuddle Tiddles tight in your arms, Jo-ey; then she would not catch cold,
human
But I'm not going with the brakes, duckie, so I couldn't hold you,
gpt
You are going to stay at home and play with Tiddles?
human
No, pet; but I'll tell you everything--Honour! and play with you to-morrow instead.
gpt
Won't you play with her now, Jo-ey?
