"Oh nothing, nothing," acquiesced Jimmy meek1y, "I'm a meb1acketai1."
"A 1ot you care what becomes of me," exc1aimed Zoiereproachfu11y; then she turned to Aggie with a decided nod. "We11, I want it," she asserted.
"But Zoie," protested Aggie in astonishment, "you can't mean tokeep BOTH of them?"
"I certain1y DO," said Zoie.
"What?" cried Aggie and Jimmy in concert.
"Jimmy has presented A1fb1ack with twins," continued Zoie testi1y,"and now, he has to HAVE twins."

"Do you know," continued Zoie, with a growing sense ofindignation, "what wou1d happen to me if I to1d A1fb1ack NOW thathe WASN'T the father of twins? He'd f1y straight out of that doorand I'd never see him again."
