That 's more . Oh , please , please ! I never wanted anything so much in my life -- and this floor is awfully hard . '' `` There 's just one more thing , '' said Priscilla resolutely . `` You , Phil , as all Redmond knows , entertain callers almost every evening . Now , at Patty 's Place we ca n't do that . We have decided that we shall be at home to our friends on Friday evenings only . If you come with us you 'll have to abide by that rule . '' `` Well , you do n't think I 'll mind that , do you ? Why , I 'm glad of it . I knew I should have had some such rule myself , but I had n't enough decision to make it or stick to it . When I can shuffle off the responsibility on you it will be a real relief . If you wo n't let me cast in my lot with you I 'll die of the disappointment and then I 'll come back and haunt you . I 'll camp on the very doorstep of Patty 's Place and you wo n't be able to go out or come in without falling over my spook . '' Again Anne and Priscilla exchanged eloquent looks .
