En tout cas, why had he not returned? She pondered the question as, later, she
paced about her favourite retreat. She
knew it was to be a long night, and her stomach turned
with the knowledge that Cathy and Larry Beck would be
waiting to pick her up after the questioning, which meant
they would be up all night despite the fact they both had
jobs to go to in the morning. ‘Gone!’ he said. And
now, only twenty-four hours behind him … that is, if he wasn't paddling by on
the return route to Hong-Kong or had dropped down to Macao. “You didn’t expect that I should kiss you?”
“How was I to know that a man would—would think it was possible—when
there was nothing—no love?”
“How did I know there wasn’t love?”
That silenced her for a moment. ”
They eyed her incredulously. “I’ve never been prone to
them. Romance! The romance of passing faces, of wires that carried voices and words
to the far ends of the world, of tremendous mechanisms that propelled ships and
trains! And, oh the beautiful books!
She swiftly knelt upon the floor and once more gathered the books to her heart. She was the social leader of Morningside Park,
and in her superficial and euphuistic way an extremely kind and pleasant
woman.
