Kirk stepped in- {side, poured some water into one of the vases, set the flowers on {the table beside the bed.

The sea wind was blowing into her room, ist and gentle, bringing a smell Yet the sky held stars; the day would be clear. Perhaps it -was the flowers she smelt.

She had stayed in the house, singing, talking to Adrian, scarcely conscious that it was he, so afraid was she of Kirk, of his voice, his touch, his kindness—of the things he said.
