Although Bertha Haines wasn't drunk, she was a bit tipsy, so she started giggling foolishly as soon as she got in the car with Amos Smith.
Amos frowned at the sight.
"How much did you drink?"
Bertha first held up one finger, then two, followed by a third one…
Amos's frown deepened, the young girl was likely drunk.
"Didn't you promise not to drink casually outside?"
Bertha gestured: [Today's a happy day.]
Amos asked, "What made you so happy?"
Bertha thought for a moment, seeming somewhat slow to respond.
[I made money, made this amount.]
Amos knew, of course, as someone always reported her whereabouts to him, but it surprised him a bit that the young girl didn't share this joy with him immediately.
[Also, April can hear now, I'm very happy for her.]
"Meeting you was her good fortune."
[Wrong.]
Bertha directly contradicted him.
[Becoming her friend is my good fortune.]
Amos was stunned for a few seconds and then gave a slight smile.
