"Nice boys don't fight." Billy shifted his feet uneasily, the movement bringing him a step or two closer to the other. "Well, who did?" snapped Billy, glowering at his two bosom friends. A whip-poor-will lilted its low call from a hazel copse and Billy answered it. A feeling that he wanted to visit his wild things in the upland shanty and explain to them his seeming neglect of them during his time of stress took possession of him.
