I REALLY NEED THE ANSWER TO THIS PLEASE THE PASSAGE IS BELOW
From The Windy Hill
by Cornelia Meigs
The road was a sunny, dusty one, leading upward through Medford Valley, with half-wooded hills on each side whose far outline quivered in the hot, breathless air of a mid-June afternoon. Oliver Peyton seemed to have no regard for heat or dust, however, but trudged along with such a determined stride that people passing turned to look after him, and more than one swift motor car curved aside to give him room.
“Want a ride?” inquired one genial farmer, drawing up beside him. “Where are you going?”
Oliver turned to answer the first question, meaning to reply with a relieved “yes,” but his square, sunburned face hardened at the second.
“Oh, I am just going down the road—a little way,” he replied stiffly, shook his head at the repeated offer of a lift, and tramped on in the dust.
The next man he met seemed also to feel a curiosity as to his errand, for he stopped a very old, shambling horse to lean from his seat and ask pointblank: “Where may you be going in such a hurry on such a hot day?”
Oliver, looking up at the person who addressed him and gauging his close-set, hard gray eyes and his narrow, dark face, conceived an instant dislike and distrust of the stranger. He replied shortly, as he had before, but with less good temper:
“I am going down the road a little way. And, as you say, I am rather in a hurry.”
“Oh, are you indeed?” returned the man, measuring the boy up and down with a disagreeable, inquisitive glance. “In too much of a hurry to have your manners with you, even!” He shot him a look of keen and hostile penetration. “It almost looks as though you were running away from something.”
