When I said that about you being provocative, I didn't mean it what you thought, you know, James said abruptly.
You mean you weren't trying to remind me that there was a time when I had been guilty of being extremely provocative?
No, I know you weren't, James.
I don't know why I ran off like that.

She shaking intensely at the memory of her own folly.
