Wealthy Ken Sargent, whom Lily Lou loves, becomes angry when she insists upon practicing instead of seeing him and discontinues calling. Lily Lou grows listless and overworks trying to forget him. She goes to her parents' home tn Woodlake for a rest. Ken arrives and once again he is happy. but she assume* an air of indifference toward him Keeling she is no longer interested. Ken kisses her goodbye and leaves for town. Lily Lou rushes down the path to stop him and stumbles. Ken runs back to assist her. CHAPTER NINE “Lily Lou.” he said in a seriou'h. almost stern voice. “Do you love me. or don’t you? I’ve got to know. I can’t bear it to go on this way. No. don't look away. It isn’t fair to me. You've got to tell me. . . . Say no if you must, but say something—” “And if 1 say no?" Her voice was still thick with tears, he could hardly understand her, hut he realized what she meant. He drew back a little said, still in that curiously stern voice. "Well, if you say no it's all right. Lily Lou. I'il just go on same as I'd planned to. 1 won't make a nuisance of myself. Only I've got to know.” • I She couldn't say yes. and she couldn’t say no. . . . She couldn’t bear to lose him “Ob', don’t go,” she pleaded. "Ken don’t go—” She saw his face, once more triumphant, laughing in starlight. ‘Then you do love me—oh. Lily laro!" He forgot all about her ankle, her eool aloofness. He pulled her to him. his lips moved over her face, her throat, her neck. Lily Lou lay limp and nerveless in his arms. She I :oo had forgotten the ankle, she had almost but not quite forgotten the stage. . . The stage where she. in i scarlet velvet, would be Tosca. in white satin. Marguerite. “This :is love.” she thought. “It's happened to me. .1 love him. and he loves me. and nothing else matters. ” The little light of memory in her mind that illuminated the Tos■a. the Marguerite she was to be, went out. The stage was in darkness. She was alone in the dim I starlight with Ken, with Ken whom ■ she loved. • i | “Kiss me—again!” she breathed. And when he did. she whispered. "Oh, Ken, I do love you. I've tried not to, but I can't help it any more I do! I do!” She never knew how long they sat there on the porch, theii arms entwined, and afterwards she was > glad she didn't But it didn’t matter. Nothing mattered. She loved . Ken. and Ken loved Ler. i '■ They had fifty h>i»hod, tremulous . goodbyes. It must have been near daylight when be got into the car, and she waved front the screen , door. And suddenly her ankle hurt. Oh, dreadfully. It hurt so much she couldn’t stand on it. Leaning on a 1 chair she crawled through the dark, silent little parlor, into the front 1 bedroom, slipped off her clothes, climbed into the big. soft feather 1 bed. -From the open window cyme • the smell of the dusty roses, the 1 twitterings of aome-wajcing birds. |. . .

you're in love,” she thought and ! cried a little. When the morning noises in the house didn't wake her, and she ( ; didn’t come in to breakfast, her ; mother went to her room. ‘ “Lily Lou, sleepy head. .. .. You , must have stayed out real late. We > didn’t hear you come in—” Lily Lou opened heavy eyes. “Oh —kind of late. . . . Oh, mother. I , hurt my ankle.” It was as big as a pumpkin. I ’rtlurt it? Lucky if you haven’t , broken it. Oh, Lily lam. why didn't , you call me? i could have got a . hot footbath, or arnica—” , She bustled for the remedies now. ( Lily Lou lay back on the pillows. I She was tired, and listless. She I didn’t want to move. She wanted I to capture again the dreams of last night. But they weren't dreams. It was ail true. . Ken loved her, I and she loved him. .
