"You are going somewhere with Laurie, I know you areYou were whispering and laughing together on the sofa last night, and you stopped when I came inAren't you going with him?"
"Yes, we areNow do be still, and stop bothering
Amy held her tongue, but used her eyes, and saw Meg slip a fan into her pocket
"I know! I know! You're going to the theater to see the SEVEN CASTLES!" she cried, adding resolutely, "and I shall go, for Mother said I might see it, and I've got my rag money, and it was mean not to tell me in time
"Just listen to me a minute, and be a good child," said Meg soothingly"Mother doesn't wish you to go this week, because your eyes are not well enough yet to bear the light of this fairy pieceNext week you can go with Beth and Hannah, and have a nice time
"I don't like that half as well as going with you and LaurieI've been sick with this cold so long, and shut up, I'm dying for some funDo, Meg! I'll be ever so good," fairy bag prada pleaded Amy, looking as pathetic as she could
"Suppose we take herI don't believe Mother would mind, if we bundle her up well," began Meg
"If she goes I shan't, and if I don't, Laurie won't like it, and it will be very rude, after he invited only us, to go and drag in AmyI should think she'd hate to poke herself where she isn't wanted," said Jo crossly, for she disliked the trouble of overseeing a fidgety child when she wanted to enjoy herself
Her tone and manner angered Amy, who began to put her boots on, saying, in her most aggravating way, "I shall goMeg says I may, and if I pay for myself, Laurie hasn't anything to do with it
"You can't sit with us, for our seats are reserved, and you mustn't sit alone, so Laurie will give you his place, and that will spoil our pleasureOr he'll get another seat for you, and that isn't proper when you weren't askedYou shan't stir a step, so you may just stay where you are," scolded Jo, crosser than ever, having just pricked her finger in her chanel handbag 2.55 hurry

"Fiddlesticks!" returned Jo, slamming the door
They had a charming time, for THE SEVEN CASTLES OF THE DIAMOND LAKE was as brilliant and wonderful as heart could wishBut in spite of the comical red imps, sparkling elves, and the gorgeous princes and princesses, Jo's pleasure had a drop of bitterness in itThe fairy queen's yellow curls reminded her of Amy, and between the acts she amused herself with wondering what her sister would do to make her `sorry for it'She and Amy had had many lively skirmishes in the course of their lives, for both had quick tempers and were apt to be violent when fairly rousedAmy mulberry roxanne teased Jo, and Jo irritated Amy, and semioccasional explosions occurred, of which both were much ashamed afterwardAlthough the oldest, Jo had the least self-control, and had hard times trying to curb the fiery spirit which was continually getting her into troubleHer anger never lasted long, and having humbly confessed her fault, she sincerely repented and tried to do betterHer sisters used to say that they rather liked to get Jo into a fury because she was such an angel afterwardPoor Jo tried desperately to be good, but her bosom enemy was always ready to flame up and defeat her, and it took years of patient effort to subdue it
When they got home, they found amy reading in the parlorShe assumed an injured air as they came in, never lifted her eyes from her book, or asked a single questionPerhaps curiosity might have conquered resentment, if Beth had not been there to inquire and receive a glowing description of the playOn going up to put away her best hat, Jo's first look was toward the bureau, chanel classic bag for in their last quarrel Amy had soothed her feelings by turning Jo's top drawer upside down on the floorEverything was in its place, however, and after a hasty glance into her various closets, bags, and boxes, Jo decided that Amy had forgiven and forgotten her wrongs

Meg and Beth said, "No at once, and looked surprisedAmy poked the fire and said nothingJo saw her color rise and was down upon her in a minute
"Amy, you've got it!"
"No, I haven't

"That's a fib!" cried Jo, taking her by the shoulders, and looking fierce enough to frighten a much braver child than AmyI haven't got it, don't know where it is now, and don't care
