CHAPTER XLVI "Curtis!” There was a sharp note of terror in Joan’s voice now. She stopped, and tried to search his face in the dim starlight "Curtis, do you mean that because I—because of what I told you—you don t want to marry me?” She turned away from him, all the happiness going out of her, like the air from a punctured balloon. "Oh, why doesn’t he epeak to me? Whv doesn’t he tell me he didn’t mean that—” It seemed hours before the words came: "Don’t be silly, Joan!” "Silly!”
“Morbid—imagining a lot of rot. Listen, Joan —are you listening? Well then. I W3s just thinking out loud, thinking about all the futile marriages—I thought you’d understand I thought I could say what I thought, and you’d understand me, without flying up in the air, and imagining—” He stopped and. kissed her. and his words ended in a moan, “I do love you-—Joan—I do love you—so much —” She felt the throbbing sincerity of his whispered cry. A cry almost of pain. Her small, cold hand found his. They stopped and studied each other hungrily, in the dim, deserted street. “Sometime^l don. t understand you, Curtis. Sometimes I think that you do not understand me. But if we love each other—isn’t that all that matters? Won’t you forgive me, if sometimes I fail’” “Just love me,” he said hoarsely. "Just do that, Joan—that's all I ask—” And they went on in the dark, thinking their alien, loving thoughts. “I must be morbid, imagining he meant..« that.” The minutes melted away. They were almost at Maisie’s door. She was lifting her head to say goodnight. A man was standing in the doorway. He slipped into the shadows as they came near. “Why Joan, you’re trembling!” Curtis cried. “It’s nothing—that—that man — frightened me—” « “You are upset, Joan. It’s nothing. just some honest citizen waiting for his girl friend. I got a good look at him under the light, he was no burglar.” “Yes —I am upset, nervous. So many things in one night. Curtis, please unlock the door for me —I’m too shaky—” He did so, and gave her back the key. “Good night, dear.” “Good night!” The small gilt cage of the elevator was waiting at the end of the lower hall, but she didn't go to it. She tore madly up the red-carpeted stairs, breathless, panting. Whimpering—“Maisie! Maisie!”
Joan flung open the door, hurled herself into Maisie’s arms, almost knocking her over, “Well, for heaven's sake—Johnnie—what—” “Oh, Maisie—outside—l saw Bill —l’m almost sure it was he. I looked —and he turned away- I know it was Bill—l’m sure of it—” She was gripping Maisie’s fat arms so hard that it hurt. “What do you think he wanted? Why should he be coming back now—after—after that night he came here —” “Now, now,” Maisie soothed, “you don’t even know it was him. He wouldn’t come back—not him—now you stop imaginin’ things. I declare I never saw such a girl for thinkin' the worst!” She smiled, and pinched Joan’s cheek. “Now you do think the worst always, don’t you? And it never happens—does it?” Joan thought of Curtis, dear, faithful Curtis, and all the tragedies she had conjured up there. . . . She met Maisie’s smiling eyes. “I am a gloomy one. aren’t I?” “You certainly are. An’ I’m ashamed of you, thinkin’ up troubles for yourself, and everything in the world to make you happy—” “I know, Maisie, I know. I guess you’re right—” “I know I’m right!” But after Joan’s door was closed, ind the Persian kitten was put to bed, Maisie opened the front window softly, and hung out of it a long time, searching the shadows. She couldn't see anyone. She put a kitchen chair under the doorknob in the kitchen, the lock wasn’t very good. “Just in case—” * * W Joan wm rarely home to dinnei

these days. "You never see such a popular girl!” Maisie boasted to her friend Mis’ Harvey. Still it u'.m lonely, eating alone every night. Reading helped a lot. She had a fine, new detective story propped against the ketchup bottle, reinforced by the spoon holder, while she was having her solitary dinner on the kitchen table. They were just arresting Roger whom she was sure was as innocent as a baby when the doorbell rang. “Darn!” Maisie swallowed the last bite of veal cutlet, and turned a page, to see if they were going to let him go. Mercy. They were finding the evidence in his pocket! “It’s that slick butler planted it on him —I never trusted him from the first page!” And there was the bell again, so she had to go. As she told Mis’ Harvey afterwards, it almost bowled her over. There he was, bold as brass, and'

cool as a cucumber—that fellow Joan was so crazy about once. “I thought right away—this is certainly no time for Joan to be seeing him. She certainly was in love with him for a while, and you know how girls are, getting cold feet the last minute, half the time. : A thing like that would maybe upset her so she’d break her engagement. I’ve heard of cases like ' that—” “Yes, indeed.” Mis' Harvey agreed, pulling h°r rocking chair a little closer. “So what did you say?” “Well, I said,” Maisie continued, . wheezing a little from shortage of breath, “I said, ‘Young man, you may want to see Miss Hastings, but let me tell you Miss Hastings don’t want to see you.’ I said, ‘Considering the last time you was here—-’ ” She broke off in confusion. No need to let Agnes Harvey know about that—“l said, just as cool and calm as he was, every bit, ‘Miss Hastings is going to be married in a few days’—l exaggerated a little bit—‘and she ain’t seein' anybody, she's too busy with her trousseau, and wedding rehearsals and so on.’— Well—that settled him. He kind of crumpled up by the time I was . through with him!” i “What kind of a fellow was he?” Mis’ Harvey wanted to know. i “Oh —not bad looking. But I . guess Joan had enough trouble with i him! He just about broke her heart. : Now wouldn’t I be the fool startin’ ' sometning all over again, just when she’s so happy and excited about her wedding?” :r “Is she happy, Maisie?”

Still, I never was one to admire i Barstow myself. He has that hard look about the mouth I don’t like—"Oh, all men in the legal proses- ■ sion—” “Maybe I’m not saying anything ■ against him, mind you. But I still think my nephew—” “Well, I’m glad you think I done the right thing.” Maisie cut in hastily. She didn't want to have to listen to a lot of talk about that nephew again. "Joan thought she saw him outside the apartment last night,” sha added. “But I talked her out of it. I After all I said to her I guess«
there’s no danger of him coming back.” “I should say not!” Mis’ Harvey agreed. • < • Curtis was so silent, so sunk in his secret thoughts. So apart from all the hilarity that bubbled around them, so brooding and quiet. It frightened Joan. “Just don’t pay any attention to him,” his mother said. “All men get that way just before they’re married. I was just wondering . . . in a strong light don’t the drawing room drapes seem just a little faded .. . Joan, remind me to ask Mrs. Merritt where she got that delicious cake for Betty’s wedding. ‘ It was just right. If it’s too fruity you can’t cut it, and on the other hand if there is one thing I can not endure it’s a cake that isn’t rich enough . . There was no appealing to Mrs. Barstow for help. She saw no need for it. She forgot everything in the tremendous thrill of planning the wedding. Forgot that it was her only son who was getting married, and to a girl of whom she did not entirely approve. Forgot that her boy was soon to leave her. Forgot everything but that she was the general, ordering everything, planning everything, deciding everything. Joan and Curtis were pawns in her hands. Pawns without real identity. . . . “If he isn’t happy—” Joan thought desperately ... If neither of them would be happy ... if the whole thing were a cruel joke, and he didn’t really want her either .. . (To Be Continued Tomorrow)
