about being good and yet wouldn't even try when other people set
them a virtuous example.
"Everybody is so hateful, I'll ask Laurie to go skating. He
is always kind and jolly, and will put me to rights, I know," said
Jo to herself, and off she went.
Amy heard the clash of skates, and looked out with an impatient
exclamation.
"There! She promised I should go next time, for this is the
last ice we shall have. But it's no use to ask such a crosspatch
to take me."
"Don't say that. You were very naughty, and it is hard to
forgive the loss of her precious little book, but I think she
might do it now, and I guess she will, if you try her at the
right minute," said Meg. "Go after them. Don't say anything till
Jo has got good-natured with Laurie, than take a quiet minute and
just kiss her, or do some kind thing, and I'm sure she'll be
friends again with all her heart."
"I'll try," said Amy, for the advice suited her, and after a
flurry to get ready, she ran after the friends, who were just
disappearing over the hill.
