But before he went, he managed a word alone with Nina. “T’ve not finished with you yet, young lady,” he warned her. “When you .kiss ‘em, they stay kissed, my darling. More anon.” “More—kisses?” “You bet. And wooings, and a betrothal ... and maybe a dia- mond-chip engagement ring, that you'll actually be able to see... if you look hard enough and use a magnifying glass. “David, you agreed that I hadn’t committed myself.” “I said ‘maybe,’ didn’t I?” “But certainly more kisses.” “T said ‘you bet,’ didn’t 1?” Py you, for doing what,you ai David a: he only said: “Oh... «Nina oe are turned away, abruptly. She watched him walk down the, ’ hall, a little stiffly. There was-a lit- tle cross of white court- iter, where the blood had trickled out from his temple. For some reason, Nina’s eyes filled with tears. One Of Those Scenes? 'N February, Aunt Carrie (Horse- face) Van Alystyne had a little talk with Nina. She had sent for her, and they were having tea in her extremely moderne apart- ment. There were chairs made of chromium plated tubes and sil- vered leather, There were black satin hangings and black glass tables, and everyihing that wasn’t black or silver was green. Defi. nitely green. . .. You had to be careful what you gave Aunt Car- Aunt Carrie thought it was all a huge joke, particularly the arty oung man who had done it for “Don’t I look absurd in this ar she had asked at her ousewarming . .. and she did, But then, Aunt Carrie looked a little absurd, anyway, anywhere . .. so it didn’t make much difference. She was a tall, thin woman, a little older than Honey. Sh. never - ee a ee reece pe accepting armen’ les- Indies hung on Le and walking out with them, perhcial sophistication that. cov- sophistication that cov- ered an extremely warm and sim- heart... and a flair for getting most possible fun out of life. Today, however, she was un- serious. ‘ina, my dear, this is going to have to be one of those little talks that are called (loathsome expres- sion) ‘woman to woman.’” Nina began to feel uneasy, but she took a deep breath and said she was ready. “It's about our mutual concern: Honey.” Now Nina to grow hot, all over. “Get this clear in your head first, child. { think her is a grand thing; at this point I think it needs a little su] A Was this going to be like one of. those scenes you see on the stage, with each character knowing ex- actly what the other means, and yet talking in parables? “T’ve noti a very slight change in Richard lately,” Carrie went on, “dnd I think I know what's the trouble. You can help wag it Swill.” Oh, it was going to be one of those scenes. lorseface knew it all, did she? Nina thought it was a miracle that everyone hadn't no- tir »+.0r maybe they had. ‘Things had reached a stage where it was impossible for Nina not to realize that Richard was tremen- dously attracted to her he made no effort to disguise it, and she supposed that if anything had led the wool over people’s— Toney’s—eyes, it was his very openness. Some nights when she lay slee less from thinking about it, she thought that her stepfather him- self, must be unaware of his feeling for her and some nights, particu- iarly when she was worn out with conflicting emotions, she thought that he was being diabolic: clever. You couldn't pin anything on him; if he took his coffee up to her room in the morning, he an- nounced it beforehand; when he kissed her, he kissed her in front of Honey; if he was holding her hand when his wife came in, he gontinued to hold it. All this could be interpreted in| ‘two ways, and Ning, loving him.} preferred to think that he ws # ; but just | thought: in the bud, Nina, if-you|Prid +i ptene, and then... . But Carrie was saying something that startled her. “Your mother is so completely out of her head about him, that she has reverted to her schooldays. I haven’t seen such fawning over a man since I made a fool of myself falling in love with my biology rofessor . . . I fell out of love with ‘im, incidentally, when he practi- cally drooled at the mouth with de- light over a juicy ox eye... but that is neither here nor there, is it” But it certainly was. Good old juicy ox eye ... Horseface was evidently on the wrong track. “It’s entirely to his credit, of | course,” Carrie continued, “that | Richard is the finished product he-| is. You and I both know that he must have had a great many women in love with him, Nina, and frankly, I think he’s getting a touch fed up with Honey’s—adu- lation. It began to be funny. “My thought was, that if you would help me persuade your mother to accompany me on alittle trip south, it would give Richard a bit of a breathing spell.” It ceased to be funny—immedi- | ately. : She said quickly: “I think, Horse—er, Aunt Carrie...” “Go on, say it. Say ‘Horse- i “I think, darling, that you are on the wrong track. I mean, I think | you’re mistaken. I mean I think | everything’s just fine.” | But Horseface had the bit be- tween her teeth. “Well, you’re crazy if you do,” she said, in no uncertain terms; and she said: “A little lemon?” as though it were: “A little arsenic?” “Aunt Carrie, dear, here’s the thing: you only see them at inter- vals. Im with them all the time. Don’t you really think I’m more in a position to see what's going on, than you?” Carrie frowned. “Not neces- sarily. Don’t you know the way it is when a person's getting bald? He sees it and tends it every day, and thinks’ he’s getting along fine. It takes an outsider to come along and tell him how much he’s really lost.” ‘Td Be Lost? ME®- Van Alstyne’s mild, hu- ‘* merous face was no longer a friendly, amusing thing, to Nina. It had assumed dragon propor- tions. Nina said: “Please don’t think me rude, Aunt Carrie, or maybe I am... but I do ask you to leave this tome... Not to meddle.” Dragon-face was not in the least put out. _“T’ve always meddled in Honey’s life—for the best, Nina; and I al- ways shall. You simply don’t wast a. mother to go.away ... You’ ess mature than I thought, dear child. Some crumpets?” “No!” Nina was getting excited. “How ridiculous for you to say I don't want Honey to go away! Let them both go away, that’s a thought .. . A change for them both. That would fix it.” Carrie sighed. “This isn’t getting us anywhere, baby. I'm not going to abduct your mother, but if i can persuade her to go away with me for a few weeks, I shall certainly do so. I’m sorry we can’t see eye to eye about this. Now let’s talk about some- thing else.” Presently Nina left, and in l.alf an hour she was talking Saar way home she had 01 . ‘d be lost!” “I'd be sunk!” “Id lose my head, surely, surely.” “She can’t leave us alone together!” . . . -“Honey, dear, please don’t say I said anything about it, but Aunt Carrie mentioned something about wanting you to go south with her the other day .. oF oe you.

Richard told me last night that he thought Tlookec a bit peaked.” She pauses, and then went on, anxiously: “Do you think T look peaked, baby? Do you?” Nina suddenly imagined that her mother did .. . although it was probably just that Honey was ner- Vous at the thought ... she was al- wey so passionately anxious to look blooming for Richard. “Why, I hadn't noticed it, Honey, dear. But I certainly wouldn't leave him, even if I did go away for a while. Take him with you! I think he'd have every right to feel hurt...” aot simply had to let it go at at.
