IBELONCTOYOU'ISM

CHAPTER TWENTY-FIVE Pat said, “I know my brother so well. March !'m seven years older than he. I've felt, since our mother died, responsible for him in away. Perhaps that seems odd to you. when he’s a grown man and capable of looking after himself. But in some ways—he isn't He's so vulnerable He wants things so dreadfully, sis c after thc-m so hard And when he lotas, as he so .ften seems to loM. • it does someth.ng horrible to him . Something corrosive It eats away a little more of his self-confidence.” “He always seems very sure of himself " March's voice was level, 1 alm-st without inflection. "H.- ai-ems so,” Pat agreed, “but he isn’t I know He's always had — too much of the wrong things, I money, complete freedom from responsibility. leisure No one's ever expected anything from him in the , way ot steadiness, or sustained effort. 1 was reared in the same way, I but it's different with a woman. I jfe , •.a b.c us to face things. It’s always been too easy for Griff to write a check, or run away — until now, March. He has run away, but it' isn't helping. And so he's coming back.” March repeated blankly, "Run away?” Coming back? I don’t un-i derstand." The lovely diseiplined mouth of the Countess Cassano trembled. She said, ”i haven’t seen my brother vinca you have. He didn t come back . ths lake at all He's been in Eng-1 tnd and France and Italy and ■ hitUL I've had letters occasionally, uch unhappy letters. He'a learned »hat everyone has to learn some .me or other, that you can't run i ■ way from love, because it goes nerever y-u go--a sort of emo.lunal stowaway—" Mareh echoed faintly, "Love? But—" "Hurely you knew he loved you." "at’s eyes were kind. "1 can't irnage Griff experiencing anything like his thing that’s tearing him V> 1 leces, and not telling you about it.” . "He told me,” March admitted. But I didn't dream—l had no idea—” "How real it was, how lasting?” Pat finished for her. "You see, he ■nly loved once before. That nearly wrecked him. She was—” Pat 1 rugged, delicately, expressively, 'the sort of girl who had her family ■vaiting outside the courthouse fter the ceremony to drag her off nd demand an annulment. With noney. A great deal of money. And Griff was very young.” March hadn't known about that. Iriff had never told her the details f that early marriage. Pity stirred n her. She brought her attention ack with an effort to what Pat was j saying. "I don't know what happened between you and your husband, eaept that you left him. People talk, ’ you know, and Kenoqua's like any other small town. I only hope that Griff wasn’t too greatly to blame, or that if he was, you can find it in .our heart to forgive him. He's uffcred, March, more than you can -sibly know. Hell come to you as •■■on as he gets home, as soon as he

hams you're living apart from your husband. Is there-is there any hope?” Her voice faltered, died, but her steady eyes held a burning question. March said slowly, “But—l'm not divorced. Pat. Perhaps I never shall be, unless Brent want* it that way You see. I still love him. I'm— sorry st-'-ut Griff. Phase believe that But there isn't anything I can . do .. 1 "But you'll be kind to him. March.” Pat’s voice and eyes be- ■ seeched her. “You'll try to umier- , stand." She went on after a moment in a different tone. "There's a 1 kind of recklessness about Griff, that's always frightened me. I can’t' I be sure what he’d do if he's driven j too far or hurt too deeply. There, are ro few things, so few people, he ' really cares about. You’re one of , i them. March And I'm one It gives . us—a certain responsibility " Impulsively March laid her hand' over Pat's. She said, her voice 1 i husky, “I will be kind, Pat. And 1 i I understand — better than you ' | know . . All ihat afternc-on at the stadio: : bits of that conversation kept re- < curring to March. And her thoughts were troubled while her fingers ; moved automatically, while she ' sketched and spaced and measured. Life was a tangle, patternless, almoat purpoaakas. Griff loving her and her love all for Brent. And Brent ? He was the unknown quan- ' tity in this equation. She had i thc ught he loved her, she had been. i so confidently sure. But there had been no word from him, no sign. I during the months of their separa- ’ lion. Was that love, choked by jealousy and suspicion, froxen «tiff amt hard on a coating of pride?' Was he missing her as she missed , him. wanting her with every breath, waiting, as she was waiting, for. some word, some indication of re- 1 gret? March thought, with a kind of wonder. If he is waiting and hop- | ing, I wouldn't know. Any more ! than he knows how I feel. I Pride was so pitifully unirnpor- , taut, compared to their love. They had parted in bitter anger. Each of them had said, perhaps, more than he intended, more than he meant. If she wrote to Brent... But it was never to be written, that letter whose lines had haunted her mind during the long afternoon. The words that rang in her thoughts were never to be put on paper although they lived on in her heart, to beat sometimes against her 1 eardrums with a sound like weep mg. There was a letter for her in the i mailbox when she reached home that night, addressed in an unfamiliar hand. No sense of foreboding troubled March, climbing the , carpeted stain, letting tu-nelf into her apartment She switched on : the light, tore open the square white ’ envelope. It was a brief letter, i March glanced first at the signai turn. Her eyes widened at sight of i Sara Gregory's name. But not until i she had actually begun to read the > words written oo unequivocally in

i Sara's round, clear hand, did appr»- ■ hension close upon her heart, crushing iL so that her breath came slowly and with difficulty, as though she had been running Brent wanted a divorce He and Sara loved each other. They meant to marry. But Brent hesitated to write to March, feeling that any action should be left to her. So Sara had undertaken to attend to it tor him. She couldn't, she said, go on like this indefinitely, without any hope of happiness. She hoped March would understand. There was nothing vindictive about the letter. There was suck frankness and honesty that the thought of Sara’s having written it ' without Brent's knowledge did not enter March's head. There was even a sort of grudging admiration ‘ in her heart for the other girl's courage. She had always known that Sara loved Brent and he had admitted once, in response to a casual question of March's, that there . had been a bcy-and-girl affair beI tween them. Well, they hadn't waited any time It had taken only h«r absence to bring that youthful I romance to full, if belated, flower. A sob eaught in March's throat and the letter, crumpled by the sudden tense grip of her fingers.drifted to the floor. Thia was the end. She couldn't tight Sara, she couldn't cling to Brent, knowing he waited his freedom. Iler hands were tied, her every impulse in that direction atrophied by the memory of Evelyn, her msther, struggling to hold the man she loved against his wish, I growing warjied and blind and bitter in her determination not to give him up ... Evelyn's daughter stood alone, dry-eyed, beyond the relief of tears, and faced the futility of trying to tear the living tendrils of her love from the soil that had nurtured them. It was no use. Whatever hapI pened, whatever was to come, she ' must always love Brent. There waa nothing she eould do about it. It ’, was bigger than she. And, so long as she did not permit her love to re- . strain her from the course of action Sara's letter imposed upon her, there was no shame, but a kind of bitter glory in her awareness of iL She thought that she would write , to Brent, assuring him that she , would do as he wished. She thought that she would write at once. But there are limits to what the spirit ’ can force the flesh to do. After eev--1 eral false starts, she gave up wear- ; ily. And sat there at her desk, her lovely bead bent, hc-r eyes fixed on 1 the paper before her. “Dear Brent—" How very dear, how irrevocably loet to her, only her heart knew. And she could do nothing about it, ' nothing. Except give Brent the i freedom he wanted, that be had lacked the courage to ask for. Weil, she lacked courage, too. She could i not write him. Nut yet, perhaps not > even later. It might be better, after i all, to have a lawyer attend to every- : thing. Let it all be very legal, very . impersonal, c01d..., Slowly March'* head sunk forf ward onto her tight-clasped hand*. (To be continued) r vmsM M BmsmM M laseui 1 iM.oiwus x ui r— <u-< t»s
