PAGE FOUR THE WORLD WITH A F A New Novel by Marian Chapter 45 “YES,” SHE SAID 'GAROL was silent for so long that Blake’s control forsook him again. He gripped her shoulders and made her look at him. “Carol... 1 never thought you'd be a coward.” She broke down then and cried, and he forgot his scruples and pulled her to him and held her as tight ag he dared. She drew away at last and looked at him. “The reason i can’t, Blake —not now—is because the thing was so perfect. 1 didn't know people could feel that way. If 1 hadn’t loved you as much as I did, this wouldn’t seem so hopeless. We wouldn’t have had so much to lose.” “Carol, you love me, don’t you?” “Yes, | always will.” “Then listen. I'm not going to crowd you against your will; I'm go- ing to be here day in and day out, waiting and hoping for you to stretch out your hand. We couldn't marry, or even be together, for a while, but knowing you were ready and willing would make life an- other thing. If 1 could feel that you were near me, and that you loved me and were going to belong to me 1 could even be happy waiting.” He took her hands and held them tight. “Will you make me a promise?” “If I can.” “You can. Promise me that the day you feel differently you'll tell me so. Will you promise that?” oN He leaned over anu kissed her hands, one at a time, and then looked long and straight into her eyes. “My own darling. ...” He got up quickly. He would have prolonged the talk if he had dared, but there were limits to his self-con- trol. He left her without another word, She sat motionless, with his words throbbing in her ears. Finally Cor- nelia came in, and smashed the mo- ment deliberately with a heavy hand. “I hope you told him everything would be al right,” she said bluntly. “No. I couldn't do it....” Cornelia made a quick incredulous aound, and stood and stare¢ at her. “You damned sentimental fool,” she said brutally. “It would serve you right! you lost him.” ANUARY. Happy New Year, Miss Torrance! The same to you, Mrs. Martin. . . . We're having a brawl Tuesday afternoon, Carol; I hope you can come.... Happy New Year, Carol. Thanks, Freddie, the same to you. . But were New Years ever happy? This time last year, for ex- ample: Mike and Annabel got mar- tied, Miss Torrance! And next year and the year after: what? February. Won't you be my val- entine? Tea roses and delphinium, with no card at all. She buried her face in their fragrance and cried, knowing what was on the card he bad not written. In February, Porter Murray asked her to marry him, ang astonishment made her momentarily alive. “Por- ter, my dear, why on earth.... I’m not your type at all.” And Porter, with the magmificent -gotism of the wife-hunting male: “Good Lord. you don’t think I'd ask my type to spend the rest of my life with me, do you? That's only why I want you: you're not like anybody I know.” She refused him as gently as she could. “I'm sorry; 1 guess I'm des- tined for spinsterhood. One of these tailored, middle-aged women who sit by themselves in tea-rooms, eating spinach and poached eggs and baked ‘potatoes... .” He scoffed. “Don’t make me laugh. If you don’t object I'll keep on stick- ing around and see if I can’t change Your mind.” CUBA ARRIVES FROM TAMPA! VESSEL BRINGS IN THIRTY, TWO PASSENGERS; LEAVES ENROUTE TO HAVANA —- Steamship Cuba, of the P. and 0. S. S. Co., arrived this morning from Tampa with four first and 11 second class passengers for Key West; 12 first class and five sec- ond class passengers for Havana. Key Wet arrivals: Mr, and Mrs. C, W, Palmore, T, L. Fletcher, C. A. Parramore, L. Sanders, Estel- la Fabian, M. Fabian, E, E. Gates, R, Oliva, Mrs, A. J. Arnao, E. Garcia, E. Gareia, A, J.

The spontaneity and informali- ty of hér copy had become such a habit that ne one—except perhaps Blake—would notice that the heart was missing. There was even a re- spite from yphappiness in work; a certain satisfaction in discovering that your brain could function in @ ruined city. : LBut’ there’ wete few contéréntes with Blake regarding the Wtrk: Ste found assignments and suggestions on her desk when she arrived in the morning, and she left the copy on his desk when be was out for lunch. When he came into the room to con- sult a member of the force she never dared to raise her eyes. Apparently no one noticed it; any- thing Blake did was excusable and understaadable in these days. Laura confided to ber that he certainly was taking it hard, and -hat he ought to get away for a couple of weeks: Mrs. Martin had remarked in dis- tress that he was apt to catch any- thing in his run-down condition. Carol murmured suitable words of concern and felt an intolerable ache in her heart. March, Winter turned and plod- ded back northward, and spring was once more a whisper: from afar, sensed rather than heard. She was the last to leave one Saturday, and she went to the. window and stood looking at buildings tinted with a 4 thin gold wash of sunlight. The window ‘was open and the air that brushed” her face seemed to come from another place and an- other season. Strange that a breeze through an office window could be laden with the odor of daffodils in the rain.... HE turned away from the window and went to get her hat and coat. Blake’s door was open, and she saw him sitting motionless, staring at his desk. Without knowing what she did, she turned and walked into his office. He got awkwardly to his feet, like @ puppet, and stood and looked at her. She heard herself saying harsh- ly: “It’s late. Why haven’t you been to lunch?” The words astonished them both, and he smiled slightly. “I was waiting for you to leave. I—haven't left here before you half a dozen times sinee—in over two months.” She knew that it was no use. No matter what happened she could never get away from him; he was the other half of her self, She closed the door and stood with one hand behind her, clinging to the knob, “I don’t know why you're this way,” she said, “because I’m not worth jt. I’m afraid. Maybe I'll al- ways be afraid. But I’m more afraid of living without you than I am of anything that could happen with you. Do you want me—even that way?” He said: “I want you—any way. I lied when I told you I didn’t.” He said, almost angrily: “Come here!” FUNERAL HOME She came, astonished into obedi- ence. He put his hands on her shoul- ders an! gripped her so tightly that she winced. “But you've got to help,” he said bluntly. “! won't have you he a cow- ard. You've got to turn your back on what happened and hold your head up. Will you?” With his hands on her shoulders and his face close to hers it seemed easier. Alone in her apartment the dread would come back, but then— when the time came—she wouldn't be alone. She would have to remem- ber that. Ana if you could not re- capture ecstasy, you could at least hope that the gods had had their re- venge; that henceforth they might leave you in peace. “Yes,” she said.
