An Old Fashioned Girl: (Louisa May Alcott Classics Collection)
Contributor(s): May Alcott, Louisa (Author)
“IT ‘S time to go to the station, Tom.” “Come on, then.” “Oh, I ‘m not going; it ‘s too wet. Should n’t have a crimp left if I went out such a day as this; and I want to look nice when Polly comes.” “You don’t expect me to go and bring home a strange girl alone, do you?” And Tom looked as much alarmed as if his sister had proposed to him to escort the wild woman of Australia. “Of course I do. It ‘s your place to go and get her; and if you was n’t a bear, you ‘d like it.” “Well, I call that mean! I supposed I ‘d got to go; but you said you ‘d go, too. Catch me bothering about your friends another time! No, sir!” And Tom rose from the sofa with an air of indignant resolution, the impressive effect of which was somewhat damaged by a tousled head, and the hunched appearance of his garments generally.
