CHAPTER SIXTEEN Continued
I'm sick and tired Of Jerry
FORESTER Bill was saying. Il
guess I was fooled as much as any
one at first. But he's no good.
Amusing himself getting a kid
tiehtl'
Pats face went scarlet. Her eyes
met Joans uphappilly.
Joan, Bills making a mountain
out Of nothing. Some Of Jerry's
friends threw party and 7 took a
drink-just a little one"
Bill laughed mirthlessly. Il guess
it was a little onel TWO or three
little strong ones that knocked you
out coldl'
Bills right" Joan said. Jerry,
isn't any good"
Please, JOanl won't have
everybody interfering in my affairs.
There's Jerry now" At the door
she flung back, "Darn-I never saw
such a family"
I'd like to spank her" Bill said.
I know But it wouldn't do any
good. Pat feels grown up. I guess
she'll have to find out things for
herself"
Afterward those words we're to
come back to Joan.
You've been drinking" Pat told
Jerry as he assisted her into the
car Too much"
Nov, little Prudence, don't start
wet blanketing a happy evening"
Jerry retorted. If you have
scruples, stay at home with them
DAT did not reply, trying to con-
L troll her anger. She was real
ling more and more that Jerry was
getting the upper hand. She had
slipped lately into a conciliatOry
attitude. She hated herself for
that
You've changed a lot she said
in a low tone. You're not the
same, Jerry"
L haven't changed" Jerry said.
You have! I used to think you
were lots of fun. I'm serious. Pat.
If you're going to spoil the party
you'd better stay at home
Don't be silly" quickly. You
know I'm a good sport
Well. Pat thought, she had been
talking like Bill and Joan. 1t must
have irritated him
"All right then" Jerry's right
hand covered hers for minute.
That's my girl!'
They were leaving the city be-
hind, the car moving swiftly now
along a dark highway.
Where are we going?" Pat asked.
You'll be surprised. Some place
you've never been before
Some time later they turned in
to a broad driveway, flanked on
each side by trees. Through more
trees lights flickered like firef1ies
in the darkness. The sound Of mu-
sic came family.
Soon the Pickering lights merged
into a blaze Of color, the faint mu-
sic into a blare of sound. Moaning
saxophones. the whine of violins, the
staCcato notes Of a piano.
"A party?" Pat queried. Who's
giving it?" she asked as Jerry did
not reply.
Don't be absurd It's road
house"
Il won't go in" Pat said firmly.
All right Don't. I'll take you
homer It was what Pat termed
Jerry's dangerous tone" III leave
you and come back alone"
You Wouldn't"
Certainly I would. I've no time
for a prude!" He was beginning
to turn the car
Pat. with a look at his set face,
said slowly, "All right. I'll go in"
And mind. you behave Jerry
said. I'm tired of these tantrums!"
