Odd Question?

If were writing a story and part of a speech where the person says:

'If I do say yes.'
or another example
'I wanted to ask them why.'

I wanted to ask them why is fine as is. The other one is just a single dependent clause, so you'll need to add more.

If I do say "yes", you'll have to promise that you'll be home before midnight.
