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.

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

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

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

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

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

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

Apparently he did a lot of walking.

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

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

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

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.

At least he didn't appear to be drunk.

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

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

How did you know I was here.

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

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

I didn't send him.

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

I didn't tell you to send Allen.

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

He did so unwittingly.

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

Tammy didn't wake up.

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.

No wonder he didn't ask her to leave.

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

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

She didn't want to talk about herself anyway.

I just didn't think ahead.

Did you know that the female gender had a guardian?

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.

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.

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

The boy stammered and did not know what to say.

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

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."

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

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.

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.

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.

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

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.

I guess I didn't at first.

I did not mean to hurt you.

So why did she feel so threatened?

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

I had connections no one else did.

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

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

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

I did, but apparently that status changed.

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

I didn't ask him that.

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

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

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

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

Did she ever regret going back to her husband?

Did Alex know Katie carried this burden?

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

So where did the money come from?

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

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

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

Maybe they had, but what choice did they have?

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

Jonathan and I did the chores.

God is punishing my daughter for what you did.

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

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

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

Destiny didn't need her at the moment.

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

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

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

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

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.

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

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

He didn't look up.

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

She didn't want to cry.

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

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

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.

That didn't sound like Alex.

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

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

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

It was the first time she didn't blush.

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

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

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

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.

Obviously he didn't actually believe that.

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

When she didn't respond, Alex looked up.

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

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

That's why I didn't tell you.

He shrugged, but didn't respond.

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

He didn't marry Dulce.

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

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

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

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

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

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

Everyone relaxed and the conversation did a one-eighty.

Carmen glanced at Alex and did a double take.

I didn't know it would be like this.

I didn't think I would feel this way.

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

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

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

I did not take your Dad away.

He didn't succeed in gaining custody.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

So they did suspect her.

I didn't mean to be so disrespectful.

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

Why did you tell Howard about the books?

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

The sun got up before she did the next morning.
