Whether Sarah had planted this
idea in Ronald's mind and made
him believe it came from himself,
Linda didn't know. 1t belonged to
Ronald now.
Some style shows were sched-
uled for the middle west, and Bagley
models were being used. At the last
moment the director of the agency
asked Linda to accompany the girls
and act as business manager. Odd
ly relieved, because now she
wouldn't witness Sarah's slow con-
quest of Ronald, now she wouldn't

called Ronald
Linda, Linda, darling, when did
you get in?" he rejoiced. II met
the train this morning and hung
around. Where were you?"

She was aware that she was say

and knew that her heart wanted il

"Oh, really? You shouldn't be.
Ronnie agrees with me that

beauty through the country de-
serves a holiday. And your boss says
so, too. 1 just talked to him, trying
to get you. This is the layout. I'm
throwing a house party on our
yacht this weekend. We're taking
off about dusk Friday evening and
we'll be back sometime in the night
Sunday. Please, won't you Gomez"
For a moment Sarah's voice was
almost wistful. Linda hesitated-
She knew the glory of the MarkleJ
yacht. She had seen it in full sail
in newsreels and photographers.
And it would be peaceful under the
stars with just the rhythm of the
water to lull all time to sleep.
Moreover, Ronald would be there.
Had he asked Sarah 20 invite her?
He must have, CT this invitation
would not be offered. She heard her
voice accepting.
Good! You know few of the
guests. Rob is coming and Nina
Nevins, the actress, and the watch
dog, Terry. Bye"
The watchdog, Terry why
was he keeping an eye on Nina?
And how was Caroline?
She set the gate-legged table be-
fore the long windows that faced
the monastery gardens, put yellow
candles in low blue holders and
moved a blue bowl of flowers to
the tables center. She opened the
silver drawer and removed service
for two. Caroline had pleaded an
other engagement. That was good.
Tonight she wanted to be alone
with Ronnie.
Just before he came she slipped
into a soft blue frock that was
misty with a hundred ruffles and
tied a blue ribbon around her hair.
If he asked her to marry him to-
night, she would say yes. Not ever,
ever again would she go journeying
through strange towns, wondering
where he was, how he was, waiting
for calls.
The clock on the tall building
down the street was Ginning seven.
He would be there in a few min
utes, for he must be at the theater
in less than an hour.
At seven-thirty he was not there.
The steak was Drowned and ready,
covered with a cream sauce Of
mushrooms, the potatoes were a
white froth, the salad was crisp
and cold.
A quarter of eight. Eight. She
went to the front window and
looked down into the street. Some
children were roller skating. Some
men were peddling flowers and a
hurdy-gurdy played an ole song
remembered from a distants sum-
mer. Then down the street she saw
Ronnie coming. He was running
with swift strides, his bright head
cleaning. He looked up, saw her,
waved his hat, laughed.
She raised her hand. The world
was right again. He would be here
in just minute.

him. She had kept it only a few
hours.

was moving out of this place, but
since all this commotion I'm stick

his eyes were serious. :
The police dismissed the whole
matter as a woman's hysteria. To
Ronald, Linda said nothing. 1t didn't
especially concern him. Especially
since it was not probable that
Sarah was an accomplice.

as April drifted into May and the
city grew suddenly mysteriously

She would close her eyes and see

of freckles across the brief bridge
of her nose, and a tall boy with
gay blue eyes climbing into an old
jalloppy or swinging tennis "a

But that was over. They were
grown up now. And any love that
couldn't Withstand life's chal-
lenges wasn't love. She reminded
herself of that again and again III
the days that followed.
