No rebuke met me as 1 slipped my arm around her. In silence I slid the ring back on her finger. She looked up half quizzically and then rested her head on my shoulder. Content once more in mind, I would have let it remain indefinitely, but a slight breeze penetrating my clothes aroused me. Glancing down, I assured myself that the ring was indeed on her hand again. Then I kissed her and assist- ed her to rise. “Come, Bertie. We must walk.” Without questioning she followed.
