Kate Ward never cried after that
day-not once during all of the
perilous months which followed.
Finally she washed away the
traces of tears, followed the wash
ing with daubs of pink, and sat
down quietly to wait.
She wouldn't go downstairs. She'd
just wait until dusk.
As the supper hour neared she
heard her fathers voice and then lis
tened as his heavy boots dumped
over the kitchen floor. He wasn't
coming up. But then, the door of
her room was closed and she
wouldn't have opened it anyway. She
wondered for a second what she
would have done if he had come up
and opened the door. She decided
she would have slipped under the
bed. Just there her heart almost
softened There were tears on the
verge of being. She fought with her
self. And came out winner, if lit
tie hardened
She had never got along very well
with her mother. And perhaps she
shouldn't have gone to the city.
Then there were the tales that drift
ed back. Part of them, true, too.
But weren't mothers and homes
supposed to be things you could al
ways count on? The other girls said
that was true. And she had started
back from the city with such a VOW
to be good forever and forever!
What-you back?"
