Gloria goes to see Wayhurn. But he turns her down" and tells her he has just married Sonya Chotek. (NOW GO ON WITH THE sTORY)
 Gloria took the news of Way burns marriage as she might have taken the news Of his death--stand- ing very straight and still. Too hurt to cry! To shocked 10 say word.
 So he had married Sonya Chotek yesterday.
 There was strained look in her eyes as she turned them from Son. ka's broken photograph 10 Way burns face. They searched 1t as fl it could tell her all she wanted to know.
 At last she found her voice. How long have you been in love with her
 Wayburn smiled. For quite long time if you must know" he said Months?"
 IL began 10 dawn upon Gloria that she had been treated shamefully by Wayburn.
 He had made love to her when l1e had really been in love with SonyH Chotck. And he had borrowed money from her 10 follow Sonya Chotek here and marry her,
 Gloria croaned aloud. Oh, what 6 fool she had made of herself! Fol deep in her heart. she had alway. known that Stan truly didn't care about her
 Perhaps if she had scorned him laughed at him, he would be on hi, knees 10 her still, For that was the way with men: they wanted mos what they couldn't have. They spent their lives wishing for the moon. The fruit that hung highcs' on the tree . that was the frui they crayed. The woman who be longed 10 somebody else was th' woman they desired above all othei women.
 , She had been too easy fo Wayburn. She had always been a his beck and call, just as she wa here now, this very minute!
 You coward" she fared up q him. 'al the time you were telling me how crazy you were about mt you knew you were going 10 marr, another woman! Why, you're nothing but a crook"
 Wayburn's smile widened.
 And all the time you were letting me make love to you, you were mar ried to another man." he said. "YoJ were doing a little double-crossinl yourself, I'd say"
 Gloria couldn't find a word 10 say She knew that he was telling th' truth . unvarnishod, and un plea sant to listen to.
 'The wonder to me is that Greg ory ever married you" Wayburl went on. "I can't understand an. man ever taking you seriously Gloria. never did. you know Not for minute. had the low down on you right from the start.
 The low.down on me?" Glori; asked him, what do you mean?"
 "Oh, I'd seen your kind of woman before. The worlds full Of them. Wayburn went on insolcntIy. Light TE-rtfyi,t~ ho size you up. Dolls 10 play arount with for a while.
 Gloria picked up her hat and be gan 10 put 1t on. She didn't have f, stay here to be insulted any longer
 Wayburn spoke again. You're member Of the great ssterhood tha takes everything and gives nothinI in return" he said.
 That stung Gloria 10 anger.
 You say that, You" she cried What have ever taken from you I'd like to know! Nothing but a 10 Of applesauce"
 T wasn't talking about myself. was speaking of your husband, " "A D4l II SdllH tlIdliN' IOu NE ueNt made him any decent return 10 what he's given you. Have you?"
 You're a great one to talk. Gloria answered. You were gla enough 10 ride around In the ca he'd given mo, weren't youo 10 didn't mind spelling my life wit him just for the fun of the thini did you" And now you hav the norvo to pull this holicr-thar thou stuff on me!-Oh, it's to funny "
 Her voice rose shrilly on a hig wave Of hystcria. She laughed an laughed, until she was weak. sh Hay Imply in her chair, with hc arms hanging at her sides She wa ibcyond tears, done for.
 She heard the door Of the rool open. She looked up. Waybur was going out She stood up inc and laid one hand on his arm. R, - he pulled away from her. NO" I said, The door closed on him. T Moments tickrd bv. After whi
