CHAPTER XXXVI
LISA came back to work on her
II old schedule and, with the sud
denness of a butterfly released from
its nest. Gypsy began to rush about
whenever she was free. David was
in good hands when Elsa was pres
ent. He and the clumsy but gentle
fingered maid understood each
other and Gypsy could play with an
easy mind.
She had known a gay, irrespon.

the evening to find her still away
and Elsa muttering over the pots
and pans, anxious to put on her big
shapeless hat and remove herself
to that mysterious realm from
which she would emerge the next
working day.
Tom would be left to give David

throat and the scent of cigarets

She would tie a big apron over

collar. Smiling still over the after
noon, she would serve Tom cold
ham and potato chips and salad.
