From The girl with the green eyes by Clyde Fitch

Ready! And there you are, Geof. I've been sending all over the house after you! Good-by! (Throwing her arms about him.) Dear old Geof! Haven't we had good times together! Always, always from the youngest days I can remember--I don't believe there were ever a brother and sister so sympathetic; I know there was never a brother such a perfect darling as you were--I'll miss you, Geof! (The tears come into her voice, anyway.) I used to think I'd never marry at all if I couldn't marry you, and I do think he is the only man in the world who could have taken me away from home, so long as you were there! (To AUSTIN, smiling.) You aren't jealous? (AUSTIN: No!) (In jest.) Isn't it awful! You can't make him jealous! I think it's a positive flaw in his character! Not like-- us, is he? (GEOFFREY: Dear old girl--) (Whispers to him.) And I've noticed how you've overcome certain things, dear Geof. I know it's been hard, and I'm proud of you.
