—w * v CHAPTER NINE “Lily Lou,” he said in a serious, llmost stern voice. “Do you love me, or don’t you? I’ve got to know, l can’t bear it to go on this way. No, don’t look away. It isn’t fair to me. You’ve got to tell me. . . . Say no if you roust, but say something—” “And if I say no?” Her voice was still thick with tears, he could hardly understand her, but he realtzed what she meant. He drew back a little stiffly, said, still in that curiously stern voice, ‘Well, if you say no it’s all right, Lily Lou. I’ll just go on—same as I'd planned to. I won t make nuisance of myself. Only I ve got ;o know.” She couldn’t say yes, and she :ouldn’t say no. . . . She couldn’t year to lose him . . . “Oh, don’t go,” she pleaded, “Ken —don’t go—” She saw his face, once more trigmphant, laughing in the starlight. ‘Then you do love me—oh, Lily Lou!” He forgot all about her ankle, her tool aloofness. He pulled her to him, his lips moved over her face, her throat, her neck. Lily Lou lay limp and nerveless in his arms. She too had forgotten the ankle, she had almost but not quite forgotten the stage. . . . The stage where she, in acarlet velvet, would be Tosca. in white satin. Marguerite. . . . “This is love,” she thought. “It’s happened to me. ... I love him, and he loves me, and nothing else matters. . . .” The little light of memory in her mind that illuminated the Tosca, the Marguerite she was to be, went out. The stage was in dinkness. She was alone in the dim starlight with Ken, with Ken whom jhe loved. “Kiss me—again!” she breathed. And when he did, she whispered, “Ph Ken, 1 do love you. I've tried not to, but I can’t help it any more -I do! I do!" She never knew how long they sat there on the porch, their arms »ntwined, and afterwards ‘lie was glad she didn’t. But it didn’t matter. Nothing mattered. She loved Keii, and Ken loved l.er. They bad fifty hushed, tremulous goodbyes. It must have been near da\ light when he got into the cur, and she waved from the screen ^And suddenly her ankle hurt. Oh, dreadfully. It hurt so much she ’ouldn’t stand on it. Leaning on a -hair she crawled through the dark, dleiit little parlor, into the front bedroom, sliptied off her elothes, "climbed into the big, soft feather bt-d From the open window came the smell of the dusty roses, the twitterings of some waking birds. The eestasy in her heart, the oain in her ankle became one. One anbeaimgly painful, joyous ache. “ToU i3 I he wa J’ > ou ‘ c * il when

. j oil re in love,” she thought < and

I cried a little.

When the morning noised in the

house didn't wake her, uiml she didn’t come in to breaktlist, her

mother went to her room. "Lily Lou, sleepy head. . . . YVm

must have stayed out real late. We cold, wet fog didn’t hear you come in—” [the bay.

Lily Lou opened heavyfeyes. “Oh, She went into the front room and —kind of late. . . . Oh,(mother, I. unpacked her things. Telephoned

meet her. May and Raymond wet working. So was Ken, and Kei. didn’t even know she was . oming. Lily Lou took a taxi, and diova

home.

The house was chill and gloomy, after the riotous sun of the lake. A

had drifted in from

hurt my ankle.” It was as big as

pumpkin.

May’s office to say that she would do the ordering and get dinner, so

“Hurt it? Lucky if you haven’t, (bat May needn’t shop on the way

broken it. Oh, Lily Lou, why didn't you call me? I could have got a hot footbath, or arnica—” She bustled for the remedies now. Lily Lou lay back on the pillows. She was tired, and listless. She didn't want to move. She wanted to capture again the dreams of last night. But they weren’t dreams. It was ail true. . . . Ken loved.her, and she loved him. . . . She lifted starry eyes to her mother. . , . No, don’t tell hcrDNot yet. Keep it a precious secret.. , . tell nobody yet. . . . The ankle didn’t respond tothome remedies. The doctor came from Lukeport, and said it was a sprain. She'd have to keep off of it for at least another week. The office was telegraphed. “Maybe I’ll lose my job,” Lily Lou thought, but it didn’t uuem important. Oh, well ... a job. . . . The office telegraphed back, “Sorry to hear of accident. Take time about returning. Kolief operator willing remain long as neces-

sary.”

Her father liked it because she sat with him on the porch now. She was quiet, responsive, dreamyeyed. He told her old, old stories he hail told her dozens iff times before. She listened with rapt, wide-eyed attention, not really hearing a

word.

Ken wrote to her from the city. Sent her boxes of flowers that arrived slightly wilted, dearer to her because they hud to be coaxed back to freshness. “Mr. Sargent feels tern'Me because the accident happened when Lily Lou was with him,” her mother explained. Now that Ken was gone, and she hadn’t told them about it, Lily I.ou thought she had better not mention it for the present. After all, Ken hadn't said anything about being engaged . . . Did he mean that when be said he loved her? She didn't know. . . . Began to fret, to want to get hack to town. The doctor didn’t want her to go, but he consented to tape the ankle, and let her. The family was sad to lose her again. “I’m always losing my children,” her mother said. Dad didn’t say anything. Dis big hand trembled, and he swallowed hard. Lily Lou’s heart ached foe him. For I".til of them. She .'anted tn do something to prove her love, but she didn’t know what. She kissed • in both. "1 • • otro y« a, she said, but that wasn’t strictly true, since leaving them meant meeting Ken again. Her mother loaded her down with things to take to May. Two cakes, a big pun of fried chicken all done up in wax paper, and a dozen fresh

eggs.

The suitcase weighed so much ... Lily Lou picked it up awkwardly. "Never mind, you’ll I* proud of me, some day!” sh" said, childishly. After she got on the train she

wondered.

Would they he proud of her, if she married Ken? She didn’t know. It got hotter and hotter in the train. She wiped her moist forehead, took off her hat. "Anyone who says that being in love is a pleasure is crazy,” she

thought.

Of courge there was no one to

home.

That done, she wondered if she dared cull Ken’s office. A girl with a clear, sharp voice told her that Mr. Sargent, Junior, was out of town. Back Monday. Any mes-

sage ?

“No,” Lily I.ou said. She wandered around the house. Dusted the piano, rearranged her music. Moved furniture a little, picked some nasturtiums, and tried to give the house a lived in air. It looked just what it was, a place where people had little time for beauty, even for comfort. It was just a place to sleep, to rest, after a hard day’s work. "Bess is right. May ought to stay home,” she thought. But if May stayed home there wouldn’t be the few decent bits of furniture there were . . . the two overstuffed armchairs, the davenport, the rugs, Hie drapes. . . , May had bought them all with money she earned. And if May had children, her house would be like Bess’—toys, clothes drying, and special food and milk being prepared in the kitchen. Well, you ought to have money . . . lots of money . . . like the Sargents. Lily Lou thought about the Sargents. Wondered what sort of times they had, and if there’d be a row when they found out that she and Ken were engaged. . . . Yes. hut were they engaged? He said he loved her, but did that mean, . , . You'd think it did, and still. , . . And if they were, what would May say? And Bess? But perhaps she could go on with her music, even after she and Ken were married. . No, she couldn't do that, not really. Going on as she had intended would mean study in New York, study in Europe, then travel, travel, and Ken somewhere else.... It would Ire wicked to give up and make her voice into a parlor voice, a sort of social asset, to make up for her being a nobody. . . . Vividly she thought again of the tall woman with the big hats and the insolent laugh. . . Mrs. Sargent, who would he her mother-in-law. And arrogant, portly Mr. Sar gent. And she thought, "Oh, I'd b > miserable with them. I wouldn’t ever fit in. I don’t like them.
