She had I seen her dancing down at the pa- i vilion till almost dawn, yet the h criolle woman would see that none i of the household missed their i small comforts, |i Terry yawned and stretched tn the luxurious depths of her bed. i The asada had been a complete success from the perms' viewpoint. She smiled as she remembered their I grave absorption la the dancing that went on hour after hour. Sure sign they were enthralled. A strange people these criolles of the pampas, so eager, so warm hearted in their daily contacts, yet so sober in their pleasures. She slipped Into her robe, raised the Minds and went to her desk to make notes of the asada. As she worked, she thought of her hour of torture the night before, when the sight of Brooks and Corinne had subbed her and she had rushed off in a frenzy of Jealous despair. She I wandered if Jime had sees her go. i Probably she had. And this morning she would be wondering if she had decided to leave the estanda. I Well—had she? Her busy pen paused. She made doodling marks' on the margin of her notebook. She had fogs through such a tumuit of ( emotion in the last two days, first with the discovery of her love for Brooks, then her raging helplessness last night. But this morning i was a now day. She could feel no despair in the warm eunshiaa. She felt relaxed and refreshed, swept clean at all problems. “It must be that music," she thought with a sardonic chuckle, "or the brand of champagne we had." Angela came tn then with the breakfast tray. It was dear she had only gotten up hersoli, and that she ws* in the same drowsy, happy mood that Terry was. Terry laughed. "I wonder if everyone feels this good’" i Apparently they did. As she went downstairs later, she found servants and guests in a tranquil after-party mood, which was more than soothing.
