APRIL IS ILL
CHAPTER XIV

Somehow, April Burnett
reached home and crawled into
bed.
After that she lay in q strange
state, suspended as it were, in
some nebulous world of her own.
She was aware at times that
Mother and Dad tip-toed in and
out of the room. DR.. Campbell,
the family physician, had a way
Of appearing at odd hours and
then disappearing. Octavia SEEM
ed to be a dark sphinx, sitting
as motionless and as silent at
the beside.
And then, on the third day,
everything cleared again.
april, dear, you're better.
Thank Cod" It was Mother,
whose eyes were red-rimmed and
swimming in tears.
"Well, Daffy (that was Dads
pet name for her, shortened from
daffodil)-you've scared us out
of our wits. There now, lean back
and don't think of a thing. All
we ask is that you'll be we'll
again."
April tried to lift her ankle,
found that it was thick with
gauze and tape.
"What - what's wrong with
met"
Dad said, "Why, goose, you've
been battling off whole army
Of flu bugs. And you've got a
wrenched ankle, bad sprain,
DR.. Campbell says"
Mother wiped at her eyes.
Darling, however did it hap
pen?"
April thought slowly, care
fully. "Took topper on the ice,"
she said and leaned back into the
pillows.
Later, when her parents were
back in the room again, April
looked from one to the other.
Mother was young to have two
grown daughters. Like Ann, she
spent q lot of tie outdoors and
ii showed In her 1.-the figure and
clear skin. Her hair was gray,
cut rather short and with q swirl
of curls like Aprirs.
Dad could throw q stubborn
witness into panic by the fierce
way he scowled through his
horn-rimmed glasses In court.
But at home, he was q lamb,
deeply devoted to what he liked
to call his "three little women"
you're resting much more
easily" Mother said.
"Sure I am. What-what day
Is il, Moms?"
"It's Thursday. You've been
pretty desperately i'll since Mon
day night"
April frowned, forced herself
to think. Octavia padded in, bal
ancing q tray with tea and toast.
"Ain't nuthing like a little,
nourishment to perk you up"
she said in strangely uncheer
full way.
April glanced quickly. Octavia
could help her remember. But
no, Octavia was in no mood to be
logged. So she tried again TO
