“Mmmmm Hmmmm.” She made the noise her mother made on long phone calls with friends. Annie had been waiting to try it out.
I like the way children test out adult behaviors on each other. They are little social scientists. Like walking around the corner and hearing two little girls having a tea party while discussing cholesterol very seriously.
Annie wonders what Mmmmm Hmmmm does. When she tests it out on Titus she discovers that it gets people to keep talking, even gets them to spill their guts. She loves the power of that sound and Titus falls for it every time.
