Did in A Sentence

    1

    A friend, certainly, but their relationship was also romantic so best friend didn't seem like a good description.

    2

    A poor person with a six-year-old car today has more wealth than a poor person with a six-year-old car did back in 1911, for the simple reason that cars are so much better now.

    3

    A simple shake of the head obviously didn't satisfy him.

    4

    A smile was plastered on his dark face, but it didn't reach the smoldering eyes.

    5

    A touch of humor lurked in Señor Medena's dark eyes, but he continued as if he didn't notice.

    6

    Actually, she didn't know that.

    7

    After that Princess Mary did not see her father for a whole week.

    8

    Alex didn't know about her fear of flying and she'd just as soon he didn't learn.

    9

    Alex didn't like any kind of discord, which generally meant that she shouldn't contest anything he said or did.

    10

    Alex didn't like highly spiced food, so she decided to bake Cornish game hens for the base of the meal.

    11

    Alex told her to call him back if she didn't give birth in an hour.

    12

    Alex was secretive and he did like to be in control.

    13

    All he could do was cross strains of wheat, much in the same fashion as Gregor Mendel did in the 1800s.

    14

    All right, so he wasn't trying to hide his wealth, but he certainly did try to hide his family.

    15

    Allen didn't do drugs either – as far as she knew.

    16

    And having got rid of this young man who did not know how to behave, she resumed her duties as hostess and continued to listen and watch, ready to help at any point where the conversation might happen to flag.

    17

    And if I did, I wouldn't tell the likes of you.

    18

    And not only was Napoleon not afraid to extend his line, but he welcomed every step forward as a triumph and did not seek battle as eagerly as in former campaigns, but very lazily.

    19

    And that was the way it did happen.

    20

    And what did she know about him?

    21

    And when I... hugged you... you didn't seem to mind at first.

    22

    And why did you say that?

    23

    And why didn't he introduce her?

    24

    And yet, didn't clinical words like selective reduction and gestational carrier mask the facts?

    25

    And you didn't pick them?

    26

    Announcing that she was mailing a letter didn't seem wise, so she walked down to the mailbox.

    27

    Anyway, I was lucky it was a low cliff and that Yancey found me before a bear did.

    28

    Apparently he did a lot of walking.

    29

    Apparently the horse knew the rider meant business, because it didn't act up again.

    30

    Are you blaming a little boy for what his mother did?

    31

    As a matter of fact, I did.

    32

    As he walked away, her stomach did a flip-flop.

    33

    As it turned out, Señor Medena had the same perspective on the situation as Carmen did.

    34

    As long as she didn't wind up at that building, her safety was of no real concern.

    35

    As the nation grew, so did what came to be called the American Dream.

    36

    At least he didn't appear to be drunk.

    37

    At worst... she didn't want to think about that.

    38

    But as we grew up, reality set in that market forces did not allow those activities to pay enough to support us, so at some point we all figured out we had to "earn a living."

    39

    But even that did not satisfy the Princess.

    40

    But he did not wish the little girl to think him a coward, so he advanced slowly to the edge of the roof.

    41

    But he didn't answer.

    42

    But how did you know he wouldn't do something to her to keep his secret.

    43

    But how did you know?

    44

    But I did not find out the secret for several years.

    45

    But in the corner, almost hidden from his fellows, one poor man was sitting who did not enjoy the singing.

    46

    But no, he had Diablo with him – or did he?

    47

    But then, a party didn't seem like something Señor Medena would plan.

    48

    But then, he didn't actually say he told her.

    49

    But then, if Tessa didn't marry him, why didn't Dulce tell him about the baby?

    50

    But why didn't you say something to me about all of this before now?

    51

    But you didn't invite me.

    52

    But you sent him to get information about Yancey, didn't you?

    53

    But your father didn't kiss me, and Josh didn't...

    54

    Carmen assigned responsibility for that to herself because she didn't notice early enough that Destiny was sick.

    55

    Carmen continued wrapping gifts and didn't comment.

    56

    Carmen glanced at Alex and did a double take.

    57

    Carmen glanced at Alex, but he either didn't notice her attention, or he was avoiding her eyes.

    58

    Carmen rubbed her sore neck and searched the room for Alex again, but didn't find him.

    59

    Certainly she wanted to feel special to Alex - and did.

    60

    Christmas was only a few days away, and yet it didn't seem like Christmas.

    61

    Connie immediately assured her that the Giddon's wouldn't be shelling out the money if they didn't think she was earning it.

    62

    Connie still didn't know about her car.

    63

    Connie would have told Len about the fact that Yancey didn't want to give her his phone number.

    64

    Covered all the bases, did you?

    65

    Destiny didn't need her at the moment.

    66

    Destiny probably wouldn't wake before they returned, and even if she did, Señor Medena would keep her occupied.

    67

    Did Alex know Katie carried this burden?

    68

    Did Connie tell Allen where to find me?

    69

    Did he have business with Yancey?

    70

    Did he have reddish-brown hair, and did he ride a gray horse?

    71

    Did he know she had spied on them?

    72

    Did he know she was attracted to him?

    73

    Did he marry Valorie for love, or because she found out about his business?

    74

    Did he overhear her conversation with Connie?

    75

    Did he say what he wanted?

    76

    Did he suspect that she was beginning to feel more for him than simple friendship?

    77

    Did he think that it would keep her silent?

    78

    Did he want to move out of the apartment?

    79

    Did I ever tell you that you're the most handsome man I've ever seen?

    80

    Did I give Jonathan his fair share of attention?

    81

    Did I hurt you?

    82

    Did it ever occur to you that I came out here to see someone else?

    83

    Did Len ever call you?

    84

    Did she actually look that bad?

    85

    Did she ever regret going back to her husband?

    86

    Did she think Giddon had other reasons for bringing a young girl into the house?

    87

    Did Valorie discover that Yancey was involved with drugs?

    88

    Did you call my accountant?

    89

    Did you find something?

    90

    Did you get her car off the cliff, dear?

    91

    Did you invite him here?

    92

    Did you know that the female gender had a guardian?

    93

    Did you know that?

    94

    Did you miss the job?

    95

    Did you need time away from me?

    96

    Did you sleep alright?

    97

    Did you talk to Len?

    98

    Did you tell him how it makes you feel?

    99

    Didn't he know that the more he didn't want her to see it, the more she wanted to see what it was?

    100

    Didn't I tell you it was dangerous to be alone?

    101

    Didn't you have any idea how he felt about you?

    102

    Didn't you see me when you walked by?

    103

    Everyone relaxed and the conversation did a one-eighty.

    104

    Everyone waited, so emphatically and eagerly did he demand their attention to his story.

    105

    Felipa didn't seem to notice anything unusual in his attitude, so maybe he had always treated them that way.

    106

    For a moment the boy did not know what he meant by this question.

    107

    For some reason that didn't seem likely.

    108

    For the most part, the work she did for the Giddon family was little more than she would have done at home - with the exception that at home she probably would have made a sandwich instead of a meal.

    109

    Fried chicken, gravy, biscuits - did they eat like this all the time?

    110

    God is punishing my daughter for what you did.

    111

    Had they decided they didn't want her bored and inquisitive?

    112

    He called out behind her, but she didn't stop.

    113

    He continued as if he didn't hear.

    114

    He did a lot of researching before he talked to me.

    115

    He did act hesitant about it, but his encouragement sounded sincere.

    116

    He did ask if she could talk.

    117

    He did date occasionally, but he didn't appear to be serious about any of the girls.

    118

    He did it again.

    119

    He did not know whether he should take the right-hand fork or the left-hand.

    120

    He did save your life, you know.

    121

    He did so unwittingly.

    122

    He didn't act concerned when she told him she had looked at them - not until she questioned the source.

    123

    He didn't bring it up again - not even when Jonathan was unable to get his short arm into a comfortable position to play the guitar.

    124

    He didn't care if she got cold.

    125

    He didn't comment, but several times that evening she caught him watching her with a reflective expression.

    126

    He didn't have to bring her here at all.

    127

    He didn't know her at all, but that was beside the point.

    128

    He didn't like a police officer there – or her leaving with him, but what could he say?

    129

    He didn't look at her when she walked through.

    130

    He didn't look like a rich man, but then, what did a rich man look like?

    131

    He didn't look up.

    132

    He didn't marry Dulce.

    133

    He didn't need any preconceived ideas about his little brother or sister.

    134

    He didn't need any tips on the art of romancing.

    135

    He didn't need proof.

    136

    He didn't really get the chance.

    137

    He didn't respond, and she thought it best to direct her energy to walking rather than talking.

    138

    He didn't say and I didn't ask.

    139

    He didn't succeed in gaining custody.

    140

    He didn't tell her about the money because it would lead to questions - both about the money and the fact that he had been hiding it from her.

    141

    He didn't want anything to do with them, so they didn't exist.

    142

    He didn't want to go and he had made no effort to get along with his father.

    143

    He didn't want to go, so maybe this was his expression of resistance.

    144

    He had access to his part much earlier than I did, so he was able to make some investments that really paid off.

    145

    He had become far too familiar and apparently assumed a relationship that didn't exist.

    146

    He knew that all the intellectual lights of Petersburg were gathered there and, like a child in a toyshop, did not know which way to look, afraid of missing any clever conversation that was to be heard.

    147

    He said he would be gone for two days, but didn't say why he was going.

    148

    He shrugged, but didn't respond.

    149

    He was certainly mysterious, even a little eccentric, but... what did she know about the business?

    150

    He was helping, even if he did so grudgingly.

    151

    He was ill and did not leave his study.

    152

    He was respectful of her concerns, but they didn't see eye-to-eye on any of it - except the fact that they both wanted another child.

    153

    He would simply evade the question - like he did in Texas.

    154

    He would want to know, yet if he did, he might try to drive in on icy highways.

    155

    He'd feel sorry for her and she didn't want that.

    156

    Helene was so lovely that not only did she not show any trace of coquetry, but on the contrary she even appeared shy of her unquestionable and all too victorious beauty.

    157

    Her face felt hot and cold by turns and she didn't have enough saliva to swallow.

    158

    Her soft touch did more than erase the worry from his brow.

    159

    Her spirits did a roller coaster as she desperately watched his retreating back, and then comprehended his words.

    160

    His attention was on some children playing in the park across the street, so he didn't immediately see her.

    161

    His attitude toward her did an about face so obvious that even Jonathan noticed.

    162

    His voice sounded restrained, but she didn't respond.

    163

    His words were comforting, even if they didn't resolve her concerns.

    164

    Hopefully her voice didn't sound as unsteady to him as it did to her.

    165

    How did having a son become a financial issue?

    166

    How did he know she was getting her car today?

    167

    How did you feel?

    168

    How did you get here?

    169

    How did you know Allen was looking for me?

    170

    How did you know I was here.

    171

    How did you know where I was working?

    172

    How did you know where to find me?

    173

    How did you know you loved him?

    174

    How did you two meet?

    175

    How did you unravel all that?

    176

    How long ago did this happen?

    177

    How much money did Alex have?

    178

    How... did he... know I... was here?

    179

    I banged on the door, but you didn't answer.

    180

    I base that expectation in part on the fact that today, many of us already live in more comfort than the richest king in the world did two hundred years ago.

    181

    I can't imagine why he didn't tell us his friend was a pretty girl.

    182

    I did and I thought he was going to bite my head off.

    183

    I did not mean to hurt you.

    184

    I did not take your Dad away.

    185

    I did not then know why Belle acted in this way; but I knew she was not doing as I wished.

    186

    I did, but apparently that status changed.

    187

    I didn't ask about his family tree.

    188

    I didn't ask him that.

    189

    I didn't bring anything formal.

    190

    I didn't have any idea he'd do this to you.

    191

    I didn't have much of an idea about the cost of raising children then, either.

    192

    I didn't know it would be like this.

    193

    I didn't know what to tell you until then.

    194

    I didn't know you all would be up so early.

    195

    I didn't know you expected a gold-engraved invitation.

    196

    I didn't know you felt that way.

    197

    I didn't know you liked that sort of thing.

    198

    I didn't know you were . .

    199

    I didn't know you were awake.

    200

    I didn't mean to be so disrespectful.

    201

    I didn't mean to make you late for your appointment.

    202

    I didn't mean to make you uncomfortable.

    203

    I didn't mean to offend you.

    204

    I didn't mean to pry.

    205

    I didn't mean to scare you.

    206

    I didn't mean to yell at you, but you nearly scared me to death.

    207

    I didn't realize what a mess it was.

    208

    I didn't realize you felt that way.

    209

    I didn't see the girl at the pool.

    210

    I didn't send him.

    211

    I didn't tell Howard or anyone else anything about you.

    212

    I didn't tell you to send Allen.

    213

    I didn't think about how it might affect you if I got hurt out there.

    214

    I didn't think about it.

    215

    I didn't think I had a chance of getting someone like you to sit for me.

    216

    I didn't think I would ever meet you.

    217

    I didn't think I would feel this way.

    218

    I didn't want to get emotionally involved with anyone.

    219

    I didn't want to tell you this on the phone.

    220

    I didn't want you to see the painting until it was done.

    221

    I don't know why she didn't ask for it before - or why she didn't tell me about the baby.

    222

    I don't like publicity and I didn't want to subject my family to it either.

    223

    I don't want you to lose anything, but you know I'd want to be with you even if we didn't have a dime to our name.

    224

    I graduated two years ahead of her and didn't keep in touch.

    225

    I guess I didn't at first.

    226

    I guess it was storming so bad that they didn't see or hear the train.

    227

    I guess we both had a change of heart, didn't we?

    228

    I had connections no one else did.

    229

    I had noticed that my mother and my friends did not use signs as I did when they wanted anything done, but talked with their mouths.

    230

    I hope you didn't do that on my account.

    231

    I just did it.

    232

    I just didn't think ahead.

    233

    I mean, that they didn't feel this way all the time.

    234

    I said I didn't plan to let you leave.

    235

    I simply didn't want your mother to feel uncomfortable.

    236

    I thought maybe we could get a van, but I didn't know if we could afford it.

    237

    I thought you didn't judge people by their pocketbooks.

    238

    I told her we had house rules; no hanky-panky, but she didn't believe me.

    239

    I told him I didn't know anything and he tried to strangle me.

    240

    I told Julia and Rachel that I'd come back if I didn't find you here.

    241

    I tried to call you on your cell phone, but I didn't get an answer.

    242

    I trusted you with that information and you gave it to the one person she didn't want to know.

    243

    I'm glad you did.

    244

    I'm surprised she didn't figure that one out right away.

    245

    If Connie didn't tell Allen where to find her, who did?

    246

    If he didn't love you, he wouldn't care.

    247

    If he knew who Alex really was, he probably knew more than Alex did.

    248

    If he thought Alex was warming to him, he saw more than she did.

    249

    If he was angry, he certainly wasn't acting like he usually did.

    250

    If he was coming down with a cold, he needed rest - and Destiny didn't need to be exposed to it.

    251

    If he was guilty, he probably deserved it, but is family didn't.

    252

    If he was on the road, he didn't need to be distracted.

    253

    If his family had lived in the United States for centuries, why didn't they learn to speak proper English?

    254

    If Howard hadn't come along when he did, Allen might have killed you.

    255

    If I did, I wouldn't be bringing you back here.

    256

    If it was so dangerous out there in the woods, why did Giddon feel so safe?

    257

    If it were any other man, she might think it was sexual frustration, but Brandon didn't appear to be interested in any of them.

    258

    If she had asked about the building when we passed it, I might have figured she had never seen it, but she pretended she didn't notice.

    259

    If she was, I didn't know about it.

    260

    If somebody outside your village knew something, it did not matter; for you, it did not exist.

    261

    If they wanted what he and Carmen had, why didn't they go out and find it?

    262

    If you feel that way, why did you come all the way out here to see me?

    263

    Imagine if all the people with boring, dead-end machine jobs were told they never had to work another day in their life at a job they did not like.

    264

    In any case, Yancey didn't seem to be all that determined to avoid a relationship.

    265

    In fact, he'd probably be horrified to know he slipped and did it now.

    266

    In fact, maybe he didn't know her very well.

    267

    In fact, that was a good way to make sure he didn't.

    268

    In fact, until the death of her family, she rarely ever dreamed – or at least didn't remember them.

    269

    In the first place, he didn't consider this home.

    270

    In the sea of faces, she didn't see Alex.

    271

    It did cross my mind that Mertz might have something to worry about, though.

    272

    It did not try to bite or scratch.

    273

    It didn't really matter.

    274

    It didn't take long for him to get home, and when he came in from the garage, he went directly to his gun cabinet and took out a rifle.

    275

    It didn't take long for Lisa to adjust to her new job.

    276

    It made a safe ball that didn't go far, which was perfect for Destiny.

    277

    It probably looked better for him, anyway, as he didn't have a date.

    278

    It was a good thing they didn't change after church, because everyone at the table was dressed as if going to church.

    279

    It was a risk that didn't pay off.

    280

    It was a total mystery to her why Len and Howard couldn't light a fire in her the way Yancey did.

    281

    It was Alex who talked her into the IVF, but what did it matter?

    282

    It was all so fast that she didn't have time to think.

    283

    It was as if she were talking about someone she didn't know.

    284

    It was Connie's turn to stare, and she did so in disbelief.

    285

    It was hard to say whether Alex was withholding facts so she couldn't contest his decisions or simply because he thought she did not need to know.

    286

    It was intended as a short kiss, but it didn't work out that way.

    287

    It was only two thirty in the afternoon, but she didn't want to go back to sleep.

    288

    It was ridiculous... and exciting... bold and impulsive - everything she didn't want to be.

    289

    It was the first time she didn't blush.

    290

    It was true, and it brought color to his neck, but he didn't comment.

    291

    It was true, she didn't know him.

    292

    It wasn't as if she had any part in becoming that way, nor did it make her a better person.

    293

    Jonathan and I did the chores.

    294

    Katie said she should confront him when he did that - tell him how it made her feel.

    295

    Len said he didn't say anything either.

    296

    Len was eyeing Yancey's car and didn't see them until they stepped out the door.

    297

    Len, if I didn't know better, I'd think you were jealous.

    298

    Lisa did the best she could to draw a map on the small piece of paper.

    299

    Lisa had time between when Howard left and Giddon arrived to call the police, but she didn't.

    300

    Lisa hesitated, afraid of blundering further, but why did he need a sitter when his mother lived in the house?

    301

    Lisa said that when she was choking, you stood by and did nothing.

    302

    Lisa seemed to fear him more than she did Giddon.

    303

    Lisa turned her face away and hoped Tammy didn't notice her shoulders shaking as she laughed silently.

    304

    Long afterward James Hogg said, "I never felt so grateful to any creature below the sun as I did to Sirrah that morning."

    305

    Makeup was something she rarely wore, but she did have some.

    306

    Maybe friends didn't let friends drive drunk, but how did they stop them when there were so many?

    307

    Maybe he didn't know what to do, or that she needed help.

    308

    Maybe he didn't like competition.

    309

    Maybe he didn't like to walk, but he was certainly good at it – and capable of stealth.

    310

    Maybe he didn't realize how bad it was.

    311

    Maybe he didn't want a permanent relationship.

    312

    Maybe he had more information he didn't want to give over the phone with Yancey listening.

    313

    Maybe if he saw that she didn't go near the building, he would relax his guard.

    314

    Maybe she didn't know him as well as she thought she did.

    315

    Maybe so, but you did.

    316

    Maybe the mother and sister didn't exist.

    317

    Maybe they had, but what choice did they have?

    318

    Mertz said she told him she didn't know who Yancey was or what he did.

    319

    No doubt he didn't like being reminded that her dream could only be achieved by unnatural methods.

    320

    No one did, because the Mangaboos did not wear hats, and Zeb had lost his, somehow, in his flight through the air.

    321

    No wonder Dulce didn't want to let go of him.

    322

    No wonder he didn't ask her to leave.

    323

    No wonder he didn't see the light.

    324

    No, but she did say he visited you.

    325

    No, she wasn't sure, but that didn't seem to matter.

    326

    Nor did he say anything when she exchanged the guitar for a violin and paid for lessons.

    327

    Not now implied later, but that didn't feel comfortable either.

    328

    Not once did he look in their direction.

    329

    Not that the idea didn't have some appeal.

    330

    Obviously he didn't actually believe that.

    331

    Obviously it wasn't something he often did.

    332

    Of course - and he wanted to be there as much as she did.

    333

    Of course I did not know what it was all about, but I enjoyed the pleasant odours that filled the house and the tidbits that were given to Martha Washington and me to keep us quiet.

    334

    Of course, it could happen, but it simply didn't fit his character.

    335

    Of course, she didn't leap cars with motorcycles or sky dive, but in retrospect, she had always been attracted to danger – at least to some degree.

    336

    Of course, that didn't mean he wasn't involved.

    337

    Of course, that didn't mean much.

    338

    Of course, they didn't have the same mother, either.

    339

    Of course, to an extent, she did.

    340

    Oh my, you're fortunate the car didn't go over the edge with you in it!

    341

    Oh, and we were whispering so you knew we were talking, but you didn't know what we were saying.

    342

    Once he was seated and started the engine, she thanked him, but he didn't respond.

    343

    Probably because he didn't know how to handle the situation - and Alex always wanted to be in control.

    344

    Right now she'd like to kiss those smooth lips - and she might if she didn't know where they'd been last.

    345

    Sarah and Giddon both seemed content with the arrangement, but she felt guilty about the money she earned... or didn't earn.

    346

    She certainly didn't feel any different.

    347

    She changed into a sleeveless blouse and shorts, wondering as she did so if he would object to the shorts.

    348

    She did say he was temperamental, Connie said.

    349

    She didn't act like she was afraid of him.

    350

    She didn't have a car.

    351

    She didn't know anything about what he was doing.

    352

    She didn't like putting her mother's old China in the dishwasher.

    353

    She didn't look at Yancey when they left.

    354

    She didn't look back, but his muffled curse chased after her.

    355

    She didn't look up.

    356

    She didn't mention the conversation or the money.

    357

    She didn't need his pity.

    358

    She didn't want the family picture, as that was the one they used in the newspaper.

    359

    She didn't want to believe he was doing something like that, but it was fresh on her mind that the unthinkable actually does happen.

    360

    She didn't want to cry.

    361

    She didn't want to talk about herself anyway.

    362

    She died when Tammy was born, didn't she?

    363

    She encircled his neck with one arm, noting that his breathing didn't seem at all labored as he carried her across the creek.

    364

    She feared for her brother who was in it, was horrified by and amazed at the strange cruelty that impels men to kill one another, but she did not understand the significance of this war, which seemed to her like all previous wars.

    365

    She folded her arms across her stomach and walked closer to him so she didn't have to yell.

    366

    She glanced around the room again and did a double take when she saw the man in a dark brown suit.

    367

    She hesitated a moment, wanting to tell him, but thinking she would be betraying Yancey if she did so.

    368

    She scanned the room, but didn't spot him.

    369

    She slept so soundly that she didn't wake when Alex returned.

    370

    She stared at him, but he didn't look at her.

    371

    She tried her voice once before she managed to speak, and even then the voice didn't sound like her own.

    372

    She turned the knob, but the door didn't open.

    373

    She used the same suit cases when she came and she had the same clothes, but it didn't look like there was enough room to put it all in.

    374

    Sleep came without definition, as did the dream.

    375

    Sleuthing mostly, but it didn't take me long to realize that most people give a lot away if you listen and observe profoundly.

    376

    So did I. Maybe you feel like we both betrayed your trust.

    377

    So that was why he didn't want her to be involved.

    378

    So they did suspect her.

    379

    So what difference did it make who came up with the idea as long as it was a good one?

    380

    So where did the money come from?

    381

    So why did she feel so threatened?

    382

    So why did you stop?

    383

    So why did you think she was out of your league?

    384

    So why didn't you bring up the other two?

    385

    So you could pretend it didn't bother you?

    386

    So, he found her questions amusing, did he?

    387

    Some have asked what I got to eat; if I did not feel lonesome; if I was not afraid; and the like.

    388

    Some might think Dulce didn't know what she was missing, but Carmen suspected she did.

    389

    Somehow, the concept of spontaneity didn't fit him.

    390

    Still the king did not answer.

    391

    Still, a person didn't need to say it to feel it.

    392

    Still, all the information Katie provided created a clearer picture of why Alex acted the way he did at home.

    393

    Still, it didn't hurt to let someone know - just in case.

    394

    Still, she did have the right to know.

    395

    Still, she didn't feel uncomfortable.

    396

    Still, that nagging feeling in her stomach didn't go away.

    397

    Such a pleasant day and evening should have ended with a restful night and happy dreams, but it didn't.

    398

    Sure, that sounded possible... if he didn't spend every day at the barn.

    399

    Surely Sarah and Tammy weren't involved, but did they know?

    400

    Tammy didn't wake up.

    401

    That car didn't look like much even when it was clean, but it was reliable.

    402

    That didn't explain what she had seen at the building.

    403

    That didn't sound like Alex.

    404

    That didn't sound very nice.

    405

    That night exhaustion did what no pill could do, and she finally slept.

    406

    That's why I didn't tell you.

    407

    The advisors of the Princess did not like this test; but she commanded them to step into the flame and one by one they did so, and were scorched so badly that the air was soon filled with an odor like that of baked potatoes.

    408

    The antidepressants didn't help that much, but maybe they were responsible for the fact that she had not lost control yet.

    409

    The apron did not dry quickly enough to suit me, so I drew nearer and threw it right over the hot ashes.

    410

    The baby didn't belong to Joseph.

    411

    The boy stammered and did not know what to say.

    412

    The Christmas tree could only be seen from the back of the house, but that didn't matter.

    413

    The clever cost savings idea of sleeping in the car didn't sound so safe right now.

    414

    The conversation obviously upset Yancey, but he didn't seem to be concerned that a stranger was listening.

    415

    The horse did not stir.

    416

    The idea of making love in a strange bedroom was disturbing enough, but with only a door between them and the children, locked or not, it didn't feel right.

    417

    The only person who didn't view her as a sitter or maid was Yancey, and his viewpoint was as a lover.

    418

    The other obvious fact was that Dulce didn't accept the inheritance issue.

    419

    The people did not like this.

    420

    The pieces of the puzzle simply didn't fit together.

    421

    The porcelain clock on the wall proclaimed the time as ten minutes until twelve, but it didn't seem that late.

    422

    The schoolhouse was two or three miles from home, but he did not mind the long walk through the woods and over the hills.

    423

    The shed at Hugson's Siding was bare save for an old wooden bench, and did not look very inviting.

    424

    The smoke was bothering me and I didn't want to ruin the party for all of you, so I simply walked home.

    425

    The suitcase didn't seem that heavy at the time.

    426

    The sun got up before she did the next morning.

    427

    The topic on Sesame Street was professions, which was the perfect opportunity for Lisa to ask her what Giddon did to earn a living.

    428

    The way he did it reminded her of Alex.

    429

    The whole truth didn't sound nearly as bad as part of the conversation.

    430

    Then again, maybe he figured she wouldn't understand them if she did look.

    431

    Then he turned away and rubbed the back of his neck in that way he did when he knew he was wrong but wasn't sure why.

    432

    Then how did he know I was here?

    433

    Then, again, if he did want to talk to her about something, this was the perfect opportunity.

    434

    There was no immediate need for a van and if they did need one, they... he, obviously had the money.

    435

    There wasn't anything on that tablet that I didn't already know at that point, though.

    436

    They did another x-ray this morning and the infection has spread to the other lung.

    437

    They did not kill him, but they drove him out of the city and bade him never return.

    438

    They didn't know what to think - you coming in here all huffy and chewing me out.

    439

    They didn't make it to the restaurant.

    440

    They didn't say anything he didn't already know.

    441

    They followed the course of a broad stream and passed several more pretty cottages; but of course they saw no one, nor did any one speak to them.

    442

    They make shift to live merely by conformity, practically as their fathers did, and are in no sense the progenitors of a noble race of men.

    443

    They used to hang in long festoons from our porch, filling the whole air with their fragrance, untainted by any earthy smell; and in the early morning, washed in the dew, they felt so soft, so pure, I could not help wondering if they did not resemble the asphodels of God's garden.

    444

    They were disappointed when Adrienne didn't invite Michael... or anyone else, for that matter.

    445

    They were so absorbed in each other that they didn't hear the car enter the drive.

    446

    Was there nothing she could do that didn't give her emotions and everything else away?

    447

    We did our own canning, especially pickles, and I picked berries every summer so my mom could make jelly.

    448

    We didn't have Jonathan when he was an infant, and there was so much sadness at the time Destiny was born.

    449

    We didn't have the opportunity to prepare for her.

    450

    Well, maybe we both did a little.

    451

    What answer did Novosiltsev get?

    452

    What did Giddon do to afford such finery?

    453

    What did he do?

    454

    What did she eat today?

    455

    What did she know about him?

    456

    What did she know about this man... other than the fact that he had a volatile temperament?

    457

    What did she want?

    458

    What did you think my business was?

    459

    What did you want me to say?

    460

    What else did he know or suspect?

    461

    What he did there was a mystery.

    462

    What the Giddons did on their own land was their business, yet it left her feeling uncomfortable.

    463

    What was down that path that he didn't want her to see?

    464

    What was down that path that no one wanted to talk about, and why did Giddon insist that his houseguest should not wander around alone?

    465

    What was in the building that he didn't want her to see?

    466

    Whatever did I say to make you think that?

    467

    Whatever the reason, it felt good to have options he didn't know about.

    468

    Whatever the reason, the kiss had awakened her as effectively as the prince did sleeping beauty.

    469

    When did that start - and was it a good thing?

    470

    When she didn't get her way, she'd cry and act like she was afraid of him.

    471

    When she didn't respond, Alex looked up.

    472

    When she didn't respond, he peered over the paper again.

    473

    When she glanced up at it, she did a double take.

    474

    Where did he go?

    475

    Where did you come from?

    476

    Where did you plan to sleep tonight?

    477

    While her romance session failed to reveal his problem, it did wonders for her confidence.

    478

    Who hasn't sat at a stop light and been so distracted by something else that they didn't notice the light was green?

    479

    Why did he bring her here?

    480

    Why did you do it?

    481

    Why did you hide it from me?

    482

    Why did you tell Howard about the books?

    483

    Why didn't Howard call for help?

    484

    Why didn't you say something before you left?

    485

    Why didn't you tell me?

    486

    Why had he come to this house, and how did he know the way?

    487

    Why would he need to lie when he could simply tell her that it didn't concern her?

    488

    With everything going on, Carmen didn't have time to worry about flying, but when they were all sitting at the airport, she finally had time to stew over it.

    489

    Yancey didn't get out, but he did wait until she had her car started before he turned his car around and headed back to the house.

    490

    Yancey stepped through the door with his arms full of groceries and Lisa didn't miss the warning look he shot his mother.

    491

    Yancey was down the trail to whatever he did for a living.

    492

    Yes. Where did you learn to do that?

    493

    Yet, wasn't it better if the issue didn't surface for a while?

    494

    You actually sought out my company - or did you have something earth-shattering to tell me?

    495

    You always did have a high opinion of yourself.

    496

    You didn't betray my trust.

    497

    You didn't hurt me.

    498

    You didn't say a word to your father, but you snarled at me as though I did something wrong.

    499

    You didn't tell me he was gorgeous!

    500

    Zeb also wanted to see his home, and although he did not find anyone morning for him, the sight of Hugson's Ranch in the picture made him long to get back there.
