quiet mornings when she could

coffee on to boil, taking her bath
and then going back to bed for a
luxurious half-hour with the coffee
on a table beside her and the
morning paper propped up on

had three tail glasses of ginger
ale mixed with gin from the two
fiat bottles that Neal had brought
with him from his flat. And her
cheeks were flushed and her eyes
bright now as she swung slowly
around the shadowy spaces of the
dance floor with him.
All evening she had been max
ing eyes at Neal. Great childish
blue baby-eyes at him.
But now, Ann Marie noticed. she
was making baby-eyes at another
man who had been sitting alone at
a table near the flight OF stairs
that led up to the street.
He was standing beside his ia
BILE. and as Alice and Neal swept
by him he tapped Neal on the
shoulder.
Ann Marie saw Neal stop with
Alice in his arms and look up at
the strange man. She heard him
saw something TO him. but she
couldn't catch what it was.
Then, without warning. the big
mans arm shot out-and Neal,
with Alice still cfinging to him
crashed down upon the floor.
