be able to understand your staying
here as an unwelcome guest. She
would think wanted you"
well, what if you did? Hasn't a
man right to have the people he
wants around him? We haven't
harmed any one, have we?"
tits all matter Of viewpoint,
Chiri. That's the only real differ
ence between any two people. You
and Virginia are like the East and
the West simply because of the way
you look at things"
II suppose I'm the East. Well,
thank the gods that be that the sun
rises in me-"
"Now that we've settled that will
you cook us some breakfast while
1 take a bath?" Nathaniel asked
with evident relief.
1.-THE sweetest breakfast you've
ever had, humbly says your slave"
Nathaniel felt less depressed than
he had since Virginia first told him
she meant to accept Mr.. Deans Of
fer of a home. She had called him
up to say she had worried all night
about making him unhappy.
He could tell that she really was
anxious for his consent. 1t soothed
him to know that he mattered so
much to her.
Anyway, I've got a crust to ask
her to pass up home like Deans
and crarnp herself up in the kind
of apartment I could afford" he ar
gued with himself, trying to down
the persistent feeling that it was a
bad move for Virginia to go to the
Deans.
He couldn't tolerate ClarisSa and
he couldn't see how Virginia could,
either.
"Unless it's because, having
grown up with her, so to speak, she
overlooks her faults through force
of habit" he thought, cor because
she learned to like her before the
age of discrimination.
He hurried through his bathing
and dressing, partly so as not to
keep Chiri waiting, and partly to
get an early start to Virginia. She
had said she needed his help with
some packing.
But he noticed as he knotted his
tie and brushed his coat that the
sounds from the cubbyhole and
studio had ceased. He sincerely
hoped Chiri hadn't been more deep
ly offended than he had thought.
She was a kind-hearted little
"mugg," but quite bit dangerous,
too. as freed" people are apt to be,
he felt.

CHAPTER v

NATHANIEL groaned. Get
IN away from that phone" he or
dered, but Chiri only turned her
back for answer. Putting the
mouthpiece to her lips, she said:
"Mr. Mann is not in. What's
that? Walker 87262 No, it isn't. I
guess you've got the wrong number
understood you to say you wanted
Mr.. Mann"
Nathaniel strobe over and took
the instrument out Of her hands as
she replaced the receiver.
eff that was Virginia she'll prob
ably call again. For Pete's sake,
Chiri, keep quiet if she does, will
you?"
"You wouldn't deceive her, would
you?" Chiri Knocked.
1--WE got to. She wouldn't under
stand your being here at this time
o fnight"
Might? You're lOOney. It's
morning"
Then get out, will you? I want a
bath and yes, yes, this is Walker
8726. Virginia? Of course, it's
Mel my voice? o, I only just
got up yes, slept little. Didn't
you? Worried? Please don't do
that, sweetheart >. of course un-
derstand I'll be right up"
zone of those clocking females. "
Chiri n1uttered scornfully. Expects
to find you just where she thinks
you ought to be every time. That'll
be sweet when you get over being
gaga."
"I ought to pitch you out on your
head" Nathaniel told her, "but 1
suppose you've earned your break
fast"
"Is that so? Well, I wouldn't eat
with you if that's the way you feel"
she hared back at him.
Nathaniel saw he had touched
her pride-that vagrant pride that
he never could prophesy.
20, come, Chiri, don't be silly;
I'm no end pleased you got the old
place in shape for once, but you
mustn't expect gratitude from men.
"And you will get me in hole
with Virginia, you know, if you keep
this up. She simply couldn't un-
derstand your sort"
IT should hope not! Narrow little
soul, squeezed up in tissue and
mothballs."
"You don't know what you're
talking about, Chiri."
"Well, isn't it narrow to think a
lot of dirt simply because spent
the night here? That's what you're
afraid your Virginia would think if
she knew, isn't it?"
] mo, it isn't. I mean she wouldn't
