The only time she'd ever seen ANYBODY
about in siesta time was Mr.. Creeping that
day in the empty bungalow.
SieSta time the day before her birthday
she was restless. When she'd tiptoed past
her sleeping ansah and out into the steep
garden, she couldn't think where to 20.
She didn't like the empty bungalow any
more. Anyway, that was the direction of
the swamp, and she was scared to death
of the swamp.
Mr.. Longlees' horse had been stung by
hornets and galloped into the swamp and
had never come out again. 1t sucked every
thing in like the vacuum cleaner. Hesitat-
ing, she saw Luyoh, having his SieSta in
the shade of nangka tree with his long
knife at his side.
He woke up and grinned and she gave
him her dazzling smile.
'You not sleep?'' he exclaimed.
Il never do" she said coolly. Come for
a walk
"Too damn hot" he said. Luyoh didn't
know much English, and he used some
words the soldiers had taught him. He
hadn't known what constructional engi-
neer was until she'd explained, and now
she found he didn't know what kite was,
either.
Shed never actually seen kite, only that
lovely picture, and when Luyoh thought
she meant bird she couldn't explain.
But tomorrow you'll see. Come for a
walk now
No. he sighed lazily. "And you not
60 far," he added sternly.
SHE had wandered half an hour or more,
small scrap of yellow dress and yellow
hair and HOMEGROWN skin in the huge
green landscape backed by the misty steel
horizon of the oil field, when the wonderful
thing happened.
She narrowed her blue eyes and looked
up in the direction Of China and there, in
the blue, blue sky, she saw her dream kite
coming.
Why it was here already, or nearly here.
She held her breath and her checks flushed
and her morning-glory eyes were spangled
with two rapturous tears. She had never
imagined anything so wonderful. The red
tail had at least fifteen bows!
'tOhi Ohr'
She threw out her hands in love and
welcome, and moment later her kite
danced up and down, greeting her. She
laughed aloud and jumped up and down,
too, and the kite danced again and then
started to climb down out of the sky.
1t flew in wide, pendulum curves, its tail
playing in the breeze, and she thought at
first that it was coming right down into
the arms she held out for it.

been in the empty bungalow and seen Mr..
Creeping come out of the locked room,
breathing fast, with the knife in his hand.
And she'd watched him carry the knife
down the path to the swamp.
She didn't know who'd been murdered,
except that it was a Malay girl from some
where near the oil field. But the murder
hadn't shocked her because, after all, her
best friend was murderer.
She blinked with sudden indignation as
she heard Mrs. Grumpy say. sit must have
been that terrible Dyak prisoner they've
let loose round here. He's a convicted
murderer already"
To the new doctor Tina said coldly,
Don't you listen to her. The Dyak is
Luyoh, and he's my very best friend. And
about his murder, can tell you everything.
"Luyoh went to Malaga and he was an
army tracker in the jungle war there, and
the Queen gave Luyoh a medal for being
brave. When he went home again an old
chief had stolen his wife. So Luyoh caught
him and killed him.
She'd come to the end of her breath and
gulped little. 'And so the District Officer
took Luyoh away and banished him. He
can't 60 home for three years.
What did they expect" Mrs. Grumpy
was saying, Letting native murderer loose
down here? And that frightful long knife
they let him carry around"
Tina swung round on her high stool and
said distinctly, ''It wasn't knife like
Luyoh's. 1t was one like we eat lunch with"
Several Of them heard her and turned
round. including her father and Mr.. Creep
ing. The reminder that she'd been listen
ing startled them into talking about other
things. Her father laughed. "Tina's imag-
ination!''
"Well, l saw -" she began, but he
wasn't listening. He never paid attention
to half of what she told him.
The new doctor had turned to her again
and asked about her birthday. He was
really quite nice, so she told him again
about the kite. "A yellow kite, with red
TAIL she whispered. "All the way from
China"
He said, ''You mean it's going to fly
here? All that way?''
1t was wonderful thought. Eyes, it's
going to fly here" she said. Two thou
sand miles," And inside her there was a
lovely picture of the kite, like vivid bird,
flying across the sea to Borneo.
Then she caught MIR. Creeping's dreamy
green eyes over the edge of his whiskey
glass and she felt thirsty again and ordered
another orangeade with three straws.
Nobody knew Tina got out of the bunga-
low during siesta time. Everybody in Paya
Panjang went to sleep right after lunch.
