`` What can we do for them ? '' said the young lady , looking up at the young man and smiling a little . She seemed to have forgotten that they had just quarrelled . `` I ca n't bear to see children disappointed . I remember my own childhood too well . '' `` I really do n't know what we can do , '' said the young man , smiling back , `` unless we get married right here and now for their sakes . If it is a wedding they want to see and nothing else will do them , that is the only idea I can suggest . '' `` Nonsense ! '' said the young lady . But she said it as if she would rather like to be persuaded it was n't nonsense . I looked up at her . `` Oh , if you have any notion of being married I wish you would right off , '' I said eagerly . `` Any wedding would do just as well as Pamelia 's . Please do . '' The young lady laughed . `` One might just as well be married at two hours ' notice as two days ' , '' she said . `` Una , '' said the young man , bending towards her , `` will you marry me here and now ? Do n't send me away alone to the other side of the world , Una . '' `` What on earth would Auntie say ? '' said Una helplessly .
`` Mrs. Franklin would n't object XXXXX you told her you were going to be married in a balloon . ''
