morning was ready quite half an
hour ahead OF time, waiting for
Charles.
We had a gloriously grown.up feel

We laughed until we cried over

Charles made FUN of them. snatch

to pull his hair; and he chased me
about the trees for punishment. We
were like two boys together. And
when. worn out, we sat down upon
some rocks to eat our lunch, we
squabbled over the chocolate cake
with something like real feeling. And
when the sun went down, and the
air grew chill. and 1t was time to
catch the train for home. stood

Quite Suddenly manhood, girlhood

me on my mouth. II was only once.
He drew back as Mortified. as fright

The color famed in his cheeks as II

Then I laughed nervously. Charles
squared his shoulders and tried to 20

Quite silently We walked to the
