Honey's junior py 10 years. Cordelia, Nina’s closest friend. Chapter Four ‘Stick Close To Her” NIGHT Nina did not notice her beautifu. room, or drink it in appreciatively, as she usually did. She drew her things off over her head, cold-creamed her face, brushed her teeth and hair and opened the windows, in a sort of the she was in : in, ie was a little gir! having her first serious talk tr father, about Honey. “But it would have bee: her to remember, dadd; ‘fan,’ so plainly, and she go} ghee 3 now I'l) have to w: whole week for another order, sie) your present won’t be done for Christmas! I do think she might have. “Now. listen, youngster.” she could absolutely see her tall thin| ise ‘father, with his sensitive mouth and kind, humorous eyes. “There are two kinds of people in this world: the serious, sensible kind, like Annie, who mend your clothes and look after you, and never for- get things .. . and then there are people like” your mother, who make all the fun a meaegaieey in the world. Now idn’t expect Annie to mai 2 you scream with laughter, and think up wonderful new kinds of games, and have all the kids crazy about her, could you? ...No. Well then, you mustn't expect your mother, who brings you so much of another kind of bepvines: to be like An- nie, as well. That's sensible, isn’t Nina had been able to see that it was. After that she had thought of Honey as having a very special Nina brushed her hair in a sort of daze, sort of gift—as indeed she had—}on her, and she had always done and had understood ber myvh bet- Never Been In Love THURSDAY, OCTOBER 28, her best . too late to do anything at all, only 1937. HERZOG Your mother cares for me a lot. As a young girl she was engaged to a man, and something went wrong....I practically browbeat her into marrying me. Nina had interrupted. “Oh, dad- dy, darling, you couldn’t brow- beat anyone!” “Well I did, just the same, youngster; and I don’t feel badly about it because we have you as a result, and we've been awfully happy together. Of course I should have let her go in a minute, if she had ever wanted to ... ever met anyone else. But the point of als this is that your mother is still a child, almost. You're not old enough to know it yourself yet, but a normal passion, a love that is satisfied, matures a person—com- pletes them; and Honey has never had that. .,. All her sudden en- thusiasms . ... her instability .. her darling crazy fads, are simply because she has never been—crazy enough about me. Can you grasp all this, Nina dear? .. . Well, now, a person like that needs a lot of looking after, and on the best au- thority, I’m not going to be here much longer to do it.” Nina had marveled at his being able to speak of his death so light- ly. Her own throat had closed up on her till she had had to make a little choking sound to breathe. ‘¥ou’ve Got To Grow Up’ OU’VE had a grand childhood, haven’t you? And I want to forget all this, for now, and go on being just as young and silly as you like. But when I’m gone, Nina,” he was very solemn, “when Tm Le dhe cog ve Me Min to grow up ies — ill you prom- act do evatiee, daddy, I do.” “And another thing, don’t want any lozalty to me, on your part, to make you unhappy wif, your mother should marry again. I want her to... if he’s the right man. She would turn into an entirely different person if she really fell in love, deeply . . . and if ’'m any- where up’ high ‘enough to get food view of her, I shall be entire- ly happy about it. But if he isn’t thesright man (and here’s where you've got to be grown up and keep an eye on her) ... she'll go to pieces, you know that.
