‘Leizure to Repent” X/ QVtsula r PaMatt

CHATTER XXVI On that narrow strip of beach between the chalk cliffs, Denise lay quiet after swimming, drew lines and curves and geometric patterns with a pebble on the hard sand, and let her thoughts run. Felicia had gone to London to meet Keith Sheldie, would bring him down in time for dinner. It was almost two months since Gilbert had sailed, and since Felicia had said: “I want Keith to come here. You must help me.” And she had said firmly: 111 do nothing of the sort.” Not all Felicia’s arguments and persuasions moved her from that refusal—and Felicia knew it—but an idea in her own mind: a growth of the thought she had told Gilbert in Russia in the spring: “Until 1 do something to solve that situation, that situation will possess me. She would let Keith come, then: and when she saw him, she would know what she thought, what she meant to do. Gilbert’s undoubted disapproval did occur to her, but did not seem important, measured against the necessity to know her own heart at last. Vt hen she decided, she was as dextrous as Felicia could have been, in convincing her father and mother that to let Keith visit them was desirable. Denise waited with an impatience no less than Felicia’s, after Keith cabled, "Sailing in fortnight just as soon as tling is off arm,’ and then cabled his sailing date. But she was determined no one should guess her impatience, least of all Felicia. She and her sister swam together, rode together, talked as lightly as in their very young girlhood. But they never talked about anything in their thoughts. . Except once, Felicia said: Denise, are you glad you married Gilbert 7” “Naturally.” “You really dislike me nowadays, don’t you?” . . “How intense you are, Felicia! 1 expect it’s because youVe been ul, and aren’t yourself yet." Felicia did not try again after that ... ~ Stubbornly Denise told herself: “I shall do as I want, and not let anyone know that I want anything. Perhaps I don’t want anything, except to convince myself that I can get my own way, as well as other people can get theirs.” The shadows of the chalk miffs were lengthening across the biue water. She must go up to the house, dress, be ready to welcome Keith to her husband’s house. She repeated to herself: “My husband s house.” And suddenly she was ashamed. Gilbert had treated her rather too well for her to think of treating him as carelessly as —as she might now. Her pink mouth stiffened. Even Gilbert had said, “You have no hardness in you,” meaning no strength, only his phrasing was slightly more polite. Well, they should all see. She walked up to the house through the level sunlight on the downs, and found her parents in the garden, looking worried, as if modernity was too much for them. When she kissed them both, her mother said: “Denise, you’re a comfort. Ah, she might not always be a comfort! Was it worth it. after all, to hurt people, to be ruthless in following one's own desires? How could she tell, she who had always been so easily diverted from hers? She dressed slowly, and heard voices in the garden, before she was finished. Felicia’s voice, high, sweet, eager. And Keith’s—Keith’s! She thought she had forgotten his voice! But hearing it, she knew that she would never forget it, that if she heard it suddenly in fifty years, when she was old as that dowager she and Gilbert saw in Kew Gardens, she would know it The voices stopped. She supposed he and Felicia had gone up to dress. She put on a black lace frock—a dress about which her mother had said. “Just a little old for you. my dear,” and Felicia: “Beautifully sophisticated. It’s the only thing I ever saw you wear that made you look sure of yourself, Denise.” Then she sat quiet in the windowseat of her room. The slow, soft English twilight lay over the downs and the sea beyont. The last muted

notes of birds were small, clear punctuations of the silence in the air scented of waning summer and of , the sea. A landscape, an air incredibly peaceful! How many besides herself in the three hundred years since that house was built to face that serene vista, must have regarded it with their own exigencies so strong, so immediate, that this strip of earth and shore was meaningless. So many people, who had fought for what they wanted, had won it or lost it, and been done with it at last. She shivered. Ah, one had only a short time in the sunlight, to snatch at all the lovely things! She went down the staircase, making an entrance that she had calculated days before, but did not remember now that she had planned it. For Keith was smiling up at her, aS he had used to smile.... What had they done to him ? He was white; he was scarred; he looked as if he had suffered so. No, he was not quite the light-hearted ’ young man who used to take her dancing. She thought: “He came ' close to dying. He might have died, and we should never have seen each ] other again.” Her mother's eyes were on her. ( Lightly she said: “Well, Keith, nice ( to have you here. I meant to be ( dressed to welcome you on arrival, | of course—but it w’as such a lovely . iazy day.” . | He said: "Denise — Denise all grown up.” She knew from her father’s expression that he considered that too personal a tone of I voice. . . Felicia linked her arm in Keith s. i “Shall we go outside? The British dusk is wholly admirable, like the British character; but not as formidable!” Keith went outside with her. Denise and her parents followed them. Keith turned his head to look back at Denise. She thought: “Nothing matters, , except that we find each other again! He was too young last year to be certain; I was too young to be clever—" Her father's voice interrupted. “You look very pretty tonight, my dear. I wish Gilbert could see you. She made herself smile. She was very glad Gilbert could not see her! He was all right; he had been good to them all: she was grateful. But she and Keith were once citizens of a carefree world in which a smile, a tone of voice, was magic, where there were no problems, and one s heart was never empty, never troubled. A world that existed again when he looked at her with his eyes smiling just as they used to, though the smile of his lips was changed. • • e • As the Merritaria moved down the North River, Gilbert was aware i he had never embarked on any voyage in his life with such eagerness. Five days to England, and Denise, ! who would be glad to see him. Her letters, written with a dutiful regu- . larity apparently, though received . at odd intervals because of the lirni- , tations of the postal service to the far Northwest, had been friendly, ( che-rful, sometimes affectionate. He ■ had no right to expect more from a ’ young wife who had not been in love i with him when she married him! The extreme doubts as to their re- .' lationship which he’d felt on the r voyage westward had vanished be- , hind a busy summer, and much t rationalization. Such as: “The first j year of every marriage is supposed , to be difficult. Mine’s a little more so than most, because Denise i fancied herself in love with some one t else. But now the some one else will ; marry her sister sooner or later, ■ and after Denise has faced that, we’ll be all right. That business of a c year’s trial was just mad. No doubt . Denise has forgotten about it, be cause she never mentions it, just j writes in the friendliest way that her parents are having a pleasant j summer—and that sister of hers is j getting on all right.” f More and more in retrospect did - he disapprove of Felicia. He regretI ted the only one of his intentions j that he had not accomplished was to see Eustace, and do what he could -for him. He had delayed his sailing t home a week to try to manage that, s but had gone to New Mexico —to d learn that Eustace was in New

York. On reaching New York, he discovered that Eustace had left for New Mexico again a day earlier. So he had sent him a letter the day he sailed with an offer of an excellent place in a Vancouver company, and instructions as to whom he should communicate with. Sc, with no damage to his pride, the poor chap woula have a decent income. As Gilbert endured the days and the evenings of that calm voyage that seemed so long, there were hours when he felt uncertainty, suspected that to get through a summer away from Denise, he had grown into the habit of putting a much better face on things than the facts justified. The nearer he approached the English coast, the more that uncertainty increased, as with time for contemplation which the summer had not afforded, he began to remember precisely sufficient instances of her discontent At Southampton there was no sight of her, and he was bitterly disappointed. She had not come, and she had sent no message! As they were finishing examining his luggage at the customs, he was hesitating as to whether to telephone the house in Sussex, to hire a car to drive there, or to go up to London on the boat train and telephone from there to demand an explanation. He began to be angry; but he was. to a greater extent alarmed! He had better telephone at once. A cool voice behind him said: “Ah, there you are, Gilbert! I didn’t quite get here in time.” He turned. Felicia! She'd recovered a good part of her looks. “Where is Denise?” She smiled vaguely. “Oh, wcM and happy. She decided she’d rather meet you at home, so I drove over. All the way by myself 1 I’ve a roadster here. Can you sort out what luggage you want immediately?” He was furious, but his old distrust in her was sharply aroused. It was better to ask no questions arid to try to discover whatever-it-was that she was so obviously concealing, by letting her talk. What a miserabL homecoming ! Felicia seemed altogether disinclined for-conversation. She drove at a terrific pace, and, he had to admit, superbly. The miles slid behind them. When they stopped for luncheon she asked him trivial questions about his summer, and volunteered him no information about Denise's summer at all! When they were finishing coffee, her hand on her small cup shook. The cup dropped, broke. Felicia jumped with a suddenness that startled him, made some slight apology, and sat down, her every muscle tense. He guessed, then, that she was raging, and in some odd way terrified. But at what? If she would not tell him, he would not ask. She said, to some expression in his face: “How fond you are of me, Gilbert!" He answered as derisively: “My feelings about you are frightfully important, aren’t they?” She shrugged and said: “Let’s go on home. It’s a long way yet” They turned into the driveway at five o’clock. A servant whom he did not happen to remember opened the door. “Where is Denise?” He did not ask aloud; but Felicia answered just the same: “Denise will be in the garden, having tea, I suppose. I forgot to tell you that Mother and Father were invited out today. Also, that Denise probably isn’t expecting you, after all.” He stared at her. The servant stared at them both. Felicia waved her hand to the door that led to the garden. He went across the hall and flung open the door. Denise sat in a deep chair on the terrace, in a white frock, her shining head down-bent. Against her knees Keith Sheldie sat, his head in her lap, his face, half turned, to them. She was touching his hair [ lightly, with her finger-tips, in a gesture completely tender. A gesi ture such as she had never made to ! her husband— Whose own voice sounded dread- . ful in his ears, as he said her name! , (To be continued) I Copyrlghl by Lriula Parrott r Dtatrlbutod by King Footuroa By*4keot«.
