'' `` We 're NOT fighting , '' said Felicity . `` And I like Aunt Olivia . But my mother is just as good as Aunt Olivia , there now ! '' `` Of course she is . Aunt Janet is splendid , '' agreed the Story Girl . They smiled at each other amicably . Felicity and the Story Girl were really quite fond of each other , under the queer surface friction that commonly resulted from their intercourse . `` You said once you knew a story about the Awkward Man , '' said Felix . `` You might tell it to us . '' `` All right , '' agreed the Story Girl . `` The only trouble is , I do n't know the whole story . But I 'll tell you all I do know . I call it ` The Mystery of the Golden Milestone . ' '' `` Oh , I do n't believe that story is true , '' said Felicity . `` I believe Mrs. Griggs was just romancing . She DOES romance , mother says . '' `` Yes ; but I do n't believe she could ever have thought of such a thing as this herself , so I believe it must be true , '' said the Story Girl .
`` Anyway , this is the XXXXX , boys .
