she stood there in the dark listen

windows Of the sunroom stared
at her like curious eyes.
Such a happy thing she had
planned-and now the place held
only bewilderment,
1t wasn't that she felt a great
love for King. But he'd seemed
to care-to want her so. And he
came like a stranger and scru-

this she failed to comprehend?
"Why?" she kept asking herself
quite as she had done when she
was a very little girl. "Why?"
The next day she tried to per.
suade herself that she had been
over sensitive. The flowers came
as usual: they came for a week,
in fact, before she arrived at the
shop one morning and found no
box at the door.
