• SYNOPSIS Three cousins, Scott Prentice, Miss Whitney Prentice and Todhunter Prentice Jarvis, had grown up together in and around Boaton. Whitney hat been 15 when she fell in love with Scott, then 20 and a sophomore at Harvard. Now, herself 20, Whitney is returning from a summer in Europe expecting to be formally engaged to Scott that Fall. As soon as he is well established with his law firm and Whitney has come into her inheritance, they are to be married. She has been telling this to wealthy young Jay Nowell, who fell in love with her in Paris and followed her to America. Tod and not Scott meets Whitney at the pier. At his apartment. Tod, who also loves Whitney, breaks the news that Scott—only four days before—married Olivia Paul. Crushed and bewildered, Whitney resolves that no one but Tod shall ever know how badly she has been hurt. Four days later Tod telephones that the newlyweds are back from their honeymoon. A few days later, Whitney, hiding her emotions, calls on them. She meets Scott in the lobby. At first, they just stand still and look at each other and then ramble on about inconsequential things. Olivia dreaded meeting Whitney, but when the latter casually acknowledges the introduction, Olivia hates Whitney for her composure. Whitney felt sorry for her. CHAPTER XII Afterward, when Whitney tried to remember what they talked about she never could. Scott had asked her a lot of questions about Paris and Helena. And then they both remembered that Olivia had never been to Paris and didn’t know Helena, so they brought the conversation back politely to Boston. But then it had away of wandering into the past and Olivia was only identified with the summer, so that wasn’t so satisfactory either. Finally they compromised with a three-cornered discussion of the current plays and novels and the relative merits of various football teams . . . AU of which seemed oddly funny to Whitney because she and Scott had never had any need of any of these conversational props before. Always there had been so much to talk about . . . there still was . . . only Olivia’s being with them made it difficult. Finally it was six o’clock and Whitney was saying good-by and giving Olivia Hester Prentice’s invitation to dinner. Olivia didn’t know, sha couldn’t be sure alxiut Thursday night, she thought they were engaged. But Scott was sure. He said: "Sorry, darling, if we’ve got another date we’ll have to break it. When Aunt Hester asks us to dinner she means us to come. Not some other night but that night. When she asks us if it will be convenient, she really means, ‘see that it is.’ ” Olivia bit her lip and said: “In that case we’ll go, of course. Please tell her it is quite convenient.” “She’s not half as bad as Scott paints her,” Whitney smiled reassuringly, “and she’ll only ask you to dinner about six times a year, so it isn’t much of a strain. She’ll call first, of course, and ask you herself, properly . . Scott grinned. “Leave it to Aunt Hester to do the correct thing. She'd sooner be found dead than guilty of a breach of etiquette." Then he said, as casually as though it were of no consequence to any of them: "I’ll walk home with you, Whit.” "Oh, no. I’ll take a cab.” She turned to him wiftly. Clear color racing into her cheeks. Her voice had been too urg >nt. “Don’t be silly. You know you much prefer to walk. You never take cabs if you can help it. You know you don’t.”

Olivia crushed a cigarette delicately. Smiled graciously. "Yes, do let him, Whitney. Can't you see . .. he really wants to." Her eyes sliding over them were a little mocking. But her voice was quite sweet. And only faintly possessive. Whitney thought: "Always from now on, ft will be like this. Olivia and Scott and me .. . and Olivia being sweet and mocking about his wanting to be alone with me. Secure in the knowledge that inevitably he will have to return te her .. They walked together through familiar, Boston twilight, saying nothing. They walked silently, terribly aware of each other. And of that slow, quiet excitement that was a part of their being together. That brief encounter in the elevator hadn’t counted. Those few steps down the hall with Olivia waiting for them behind a closed door. This was the first time they had been together. Alone. They walked in an awful silence, dreading to speak. To say the things that had to be said. They didn't even look at each other. Fearing what they would see. They walked with their eyes fixed steadily ahead for perhaps a block and a half. Then Whitney said: “Let’s take a cab, Scott.” She suddenly could not go on walking with this acute silence between them. He hailed one and they got in. It whirled off, moving swiftly through a sharply falling dusk. It was dark in the eab. Scott put his arms around her and kissed her. She lay for a moment in his embrace, with her eyes closed. Then she pushed him away from her. She said: "Is that what you came with me for?” Her voice was even and bitter. It sounded strange in her own ears. He said: “Yes, I suppose it is. I have been wanting to kiss you all the afternoon." Then he said: “Isn’t that why you suggested taking this cab?" "No. Yes.” Her voice was_ a whisper. “Yes, of course, it was. But it isn’t any good. It isn't any good at all." He said: "I see it isn’t What are we going to do, darling?” They stared at each other, eyes clinging desperately, knees touching. Suddenly the last hour seemed ludicrous, unreal. The room she had just left The girl whose name was Olivia and who made it wron, that Scott should kiss her in a cab . . . when for so long it had not been wrong for him to kiss her anywhere. Or any time. When it had always been so right. She said: “I don’t know. I’ve got to think things out. I can’t think when I’m with you .. .” Then she said: "Olivia is very lovely, Scott And she is terribly in love with you.” Scott stared at her. "I know she is. She is a sweet kid, Whit. She deserved to have a happy life.” “Which is why,” said Whitney, “you mustn’t kiss me in taxicabs, Scott ... or elsewhere.” “I know. But I’ve been wanting to take you in my arms all the afternoon. You must have known that" “No,” said Whitney, "I didn’t. But I’ve wanted you to. I’ve ached to have you. But that doesn’t change anything, does it?” Suddenly she turned to him, her eyes wide arai tormented. “What are we going to do, Scott?” He said simply: "I don’t know." After a while, during which neither of them spoke, Whitney said: “Why did you marry her?” “I’m not quite sure, Whit. Because at the moment I was in love with her. Because you weren’t around to stop me. Because she wanted me to. None of which,” he finished grimly, “are very adequate reasons for having messed up one’s entire life.” “You mean,” said Whitney slowly. “two entire lives.”

"Don’t say that, Whit. I can’t bear It. There must be some way..." , “Go back to the beginning and tell me straight through." “It began casually enough. 1 was on the loose and she was an extra girl. Kay asked me to be nice to her. That wasn’t bard. I began to make love to her because she expected me to and one thing led to another ~.” "I can understand that. But marriage, Scott . . "I must have gone crazy. But at the time it seemed . . . well, it was what I wanted, Whit.” “But didn’t you . . .” she forced the words slowly over stiff lips, “didn’t you think of me at all ? Not even once?” “Not until later. I tell you I must have been crazy. I didn't think of you at all. I couldn't think of anyone but Olivia. And how much I wanted her. I was more in love with her, Whit, for three weeks this fall than I had ever been with anyone in my life. I had to have her." "And you say you didn't think of me at all?” "No. Not then. Later, of course, I did ..His voice was grim. “When?” “Must we, Whit? After all, it’s only tearing us both to pieces." “I’m sorry. But I’m afraid we must. You see, I have to know.” "Very well. I thought of you again as soon as I was married to Olivia. It was pretty terrible. I wanted to leave her, Whit. I wanted to get up and walk out of that hotel and never go back. It was ghastly. The most ghastly thing that has ever happened to anyone. I felt like a I rotten, contemptible cur. And I'm not, Whit I’m not as bad as all that, i I’ve always thought I was a fairly decent guy . . , but that night I didn’t feel decent I felt.. Whitney said: “Don’t say it again.” Then she said: "But you didn’t You didn’t walk out on her. You stayed.” "Os course. What else could I do ? I stayed a n<j tried not to let her see. I I think I succeeded pretty well. Then she began talking about you. I thought I would go crazy. Finally I must have said something pretty brittle because she stopped. After that things were better. I’ve tried, Whit... I honestly have... to make her happy. It’s the least I can do, isn’t it?” "Yes.” “Well, I think I can. Bit what about us? What about you and me?” “I don’t quite know yet. I tell you I haven't had time to think . . “Well, I have. My God, what a mess I’ve made of things, darling . . . and they were so beautiful the way they were. You and me” “Yes. But let’s not think about that. That’s finished.” "But I can’t help thinking about it I think about it all the time. , When I walked into that elevator and saw you, 1,. “You didn’t seem upset. I thought you were pretty casual." “So were you. Almost as if nothing had happened. And all the time we sat there talking about those damn books and shows and Harvard’s chance of beating Dartmouth tomorrow . . "Years of that,” said Whitney slowly, “that’s what is ahead of us, Scott. We may as well get used to it. Eventually we won’t mind, probably. We’D stop caring. You’ll fall in love with Olivia again and I’ll marry someone else . . “You don’t really believe that.” “Oh, yes, I do. I believe every word of it.” Suddenly het voice beat against him fiercely. "Don't you see I have to believe it?” (To be continued) Copyright, 19X7. by King VteStareg Srr,<Dcat«. Ine.
