Born of the Storm
By SIDNEY B. CARTER
(Chanter 22)
Dennis helped her out of the
ear and lea ner inaoore j
living room. Prlscllla was so In
terested In the lire, which was
exactly as she had known It would
be, ana in me cohuuubo
ings that she scarcely knew that
Dennis had helped her oil with
her coat and handed It to a man
ervant to take away.
'Tom, this is Mrs. Kent," Dennis
was saying, prisciua lurnea
getically and smiled at Tom. He
was a thin, capable-looking man
who smiled back at her and disap
peared. A moment later he reap
peared noiselessly with a couple of
lone ones.
prL-ill took her drink from
the tray and sat down with a feel
ing of relaxation she had not known
for a long time.
"This is wonderful," she said
with a sigh. She had really meant
"You are wonderful," but one could
not be that frank until the other
person . . .
rwmnis was seated on an otto
man at her feet, looking at her
with his soft brown eyes. "You
are wonderful," he said. Prlscllla
felt a rush of emotion. It was
nimnlv too much, the contrast be'
tween this lovely place and the
Kent home, Dennis' kindness as
against Kenneth's brutality. Her
eyes filled with tears and Dennis,
seeing them, turned away and
eazed Into the fire.
Priscilla leaned over to put her
drink on the coffee table and
somehow she and Dennis were In
each other's arms. He pulled her
over to him and they sat on the
ottoman together, her arms around
his neck. He raised her head and
his lips rested ever so lightly upon
hers. Gradually he pressed her to
him and their lips clung closer. Re
luctantly he released her. He held
her head between his hands,
"Oh, my darling!" he breathed
Priscilla gazed at him, her
senses enthralled unable to speak
She drew his face down to hers anr.
kissed him again.
"I knew it would be like this,'
she said. For answer he drew hei
to him again.
Priscilla was flushed and excited
as they ate their meal and Dennis
too, seemed to feel very gay. He
teased Tom about his cooking every
time the man came into the room
and, although Tom didn't seem to
mind the teasing, Prlscllla kept tell
ing him how good the food was
lor iear nis leeungs wouia oe nun
Kenneth seemed very far away.
After dinner they settled them
selves cosily on the couch, Dennis
arm placed protectingly about
Priscilla's shoulders.
"Why did you come back, Den
nis?" she asked after a few min
utes of silence. "Did It have any
thing to do with me?"
"Yes, it had a great deal to do
with you," Dennis answered. "Ger
trude wrote to me and your brother-in-law."
"Why, what did they . , ." Pris
cilla began. She was really sur
prised. It was surprising enough
to know that Gertrude had writ
ten to Dennis about her, but James
. , . that was the most surprising
of all.
Dennis cleared his throat as II
In embarrassment. "Well, they
said," he told her, "they wanted
to let me know how you were
getting along. They told me that
your marriage wasn't working out
so well and that . . . that you
were expecting a baby."
"Yes," said Prlscllla, "I was ex
pecting a baby, but . . ." Her mouth
twisted bitterly, as did her thoughts.
She could not say any more about
that.
"So I came back when I heard
the tilings that were happening
to you." He put his lips against
her hair. "When I left you that
night two years ago, I never thought
you wouldn't be safe," he said pas
sionately. "I never dreamed that
anything bad would happen to you.
I guess I was thinking only of my
selfmy own problems and then
when I heard what was happening,
I knew that I had been a fool to
go away. I couldn't bear the thought
that you were being hurt."
Priscilla put her head on his
shoulder. Then he had come back
because of her. It was a wonder
ful thing to know, even If nothing
came of it.
"When I came back to town, ' I
didn't hope for anything like this,
like our sitting nere together so
close again," he continued, "pns
cilia, I can get you a divorce. And
then . . . then will you marry me?'
Priscilla did not answer him at
once. He wanted to take care of
her forever and that would be
heaven. She wanted that, but her
mind kent running around in cir
cles, thinking of Dennis and how
he had already helped her. Two
nines maoe connection in ner mem
ory. The hospital bill.
"Dennis!'- sne exclaimed. "You
paid my hospital bill, didn't you?
And I thought it was Viola all the
time."
Dennis seemed embarrassed as
she looked up into his face.
"on. well. I may as well tell you."
he muttered. "Yes, I did. But we
Viola and I have got to be quite
good friends we thought it would
oe better li you thought sne did It.
I didn't want you to pay me back.
so I told her to put the money In
me Dank lor you wnen you started
paying It back."
Priscilla's eyes were like grate
ful stars. It was simply amazing
the way she was being taken care
of without ever knowing It.
You know," she said, "I don't
believe I ever really aDoreciated
you before. Is It that I had to
have these things, these bad things,
happen to me before I could ap
preciate goodness to the full?"
"Possibly," said Dennis. "I might
say the same of myself. If I had
appreciated you before, perhaps, I
wouldn't have gone away."
"We ought to start back," said
Priscilla.
"Why," said Dennis, "vou could
stay here. Tom would chaperone
us." He said it rather stiffly as if
afraid his meaning would be mis
understood, but Priscilla turned to
him eagerly. "Oh. could I?" she
asked. "I'd like to stay here tonight.
i naie going oack to Mrs. Wilson's
ifter this. I mean . . . it's so
dreary In my room . . . and this
. . . oh, Dennis, I love you."
ror a moment sne saw pain In
his eyes, then he was kissinz her
passionately ... her hair ... her
eyes . . . her lips.
The Jangling of the telenhnn
broke rudely Into their longdreamed
oi togemerness.
