 Before she realized it, Tony was almost due 70 return. One day he cabled her from New York that he hoped 10 he in London within a week.
 It was late on a May afternoon when Gay Girl, like q huge silver -homing pigeon, appeared through the clouds above Croyden field.
 Great crowds had surged there 10 welcome Tony home, Praise of his accomplishment was on eTeryone's lips. Mary Lou shared his glory 100. as the girl to whom Tony Titherington is engaged She tried 10 feign an appearance Of happiness, but it was not sincere.
 It vas with q mingled feeling Of fear and suspense that she went 10 Croyden to greet him - fear that the time had come when their game of Tets pretend would end, and suspense bec8u use-wsN, when would t end?
 Jay and Jerry stood with her In the front line Of the crowd as Gay Girl swooped down and came 10 rest not 200 feet from them,
 Run up and meet him, Mary Lou" Jay shouted. Don't stand  there like a stick
 There was Tony. leaning from the cockpit. grirning his lopsided grin, shaking hands with the field officials. But Mary Lou couldn't move. Tony. a- the moment. seemed like 8 stranger - q. lean, bronzed, adorable stranger whom she hap pened. in some ineIpicahle way, to love.
 She felt a horrible sense of enl- barrassment. Could this be the same Tony who had taken her 10 visit his aunt and begged her'to be- come engaged to him 70 make this trip possible
 AS she stood there. toneue-tied and glued in her footsteps, Tony suddenly saw her.

 "Oh you have?" Tony's voice was slightly chagrined. Sorry if I've interfered with your plans
 That's all right" she retorted airily. There's still plenty of time.
 Who's the new bloke?" Tony asked. T bet some dude has edged into my place"
 Maybe"
 T suppose" ventured Tony that hes serious, intellectual, more de- pendent and better looking than am?" He remembered what she had said on the subject once be- fore,
 Maybe"
 Tony was not to be put aside so easily,
 Look here Mary Lou I've been 4S hours without sleep. Suppose I go home now. snatch a short rest, and then we'll go out tonight and celebrate my return-for the sake of old times. Say you're on"
 Mary Lou's heart jumped 10 her throat. Did she dare risk it-just one more night? Surely there was no harm in that. Then she remem- bered her resolution. This pretend ing had to end some time.
 She pushed back her hair. Moth ing doing, Tony. Thanks just the same. but youll have to find some one else to celebrate with you"
 Tony looked both astonished and angry.
 You're not much of sport"
 "All right, I'm not" Her voice was choked.
 Tony felt like kicking himself.
 I'm sorry l said that, Mary Lou. You're a sport and darn good one. If 1t hadn't been for you, I'd never have been able 10 have started on that trip" He stood looking at her as she curled upon the divan.
 T shall never forget that Mary Lou. You know that. don't you? ?' His voice was almost pleading
 Well, I'm glad I've been Of some Use in the world.'
 Tony walked aimlessly about the room for a moment then turned toward the door.
 Well. I'd better be going. Look here, Mary Lou, you're going to let me see something of you aren't you?'
 I'm afraid not. Tony"
 Damn it all why not? Think of all the good times we've had to- gether. t can't end like this
 Why wouldn't he go? She couldn't answer him.
 well. so long, I'll call you some day soon
 The pent-up tears flowed freely the moment Tony had closed the door. Mary Lou's whole body stiff tened in sudden disgust with her self.
 "Oh, you fool. you little fool' she muttered. There was no need to do that. At least you could have had him tonight. What on earth . possessed you?"
