— Intimate or not, youāve known this girl for three years. Did she kill that man?
— Yes and no.
— That doesnāt help.
— Yes, chiefly because she asked me to come here, change my story and back hers up.
— I didnāt kill him!
— And the no is a little less direct you see, when a man gets a girl pregnant, her normal reaction is to make him marry her, not kill him. See, the thing she wants most is a father for the baby, and a dead one is no good.
— Thatās silly, Iām not pregnant. Thereās only one way a girl can get pregnant, and it couldnāt have been that with me because itās never happened.
