The Confidence

I've a secret...!

Do you? Don't tell, or 'twon't be a secret any more.

But it's so exciting...! Don't you want to know?

If you think I'm going to tease it out of you, Mouldi-Goldi, you've another think coming!

But I heard Mum and Dad talking, they – they're a-going all the way to Gondor!

Gondor, hah! That's your grand secret? Even I've been to Gondor...

(almost too late, she remembers her Dad's warning to her Mum: Don't say anything! Don't want to raise false hopes, but...)

(head toss) If you know so much, then I shan't tell you any more!
