CHAPTER IX
“I’m in tr-tronble and I’ve
been crying, and I wondered if
you’d come—come—come and
take me for a drive!” stam­
mered Cherry.
"I—I've had—bad new»—and I’m
—all—all alone!”
“Trouble, Marchioness?” Kelly
said. Instantly concerned. “Hold ev­
erything. and I’ll be there in twenty
minutes, and you come on over here
and have supper with me. Hey?
Good girl! I was just feeling very
low and blue and we’ll fix each oth­
er up. I’m on my way!”
Kelly would not let her begin on
the story of her troubles until she
had eaten. Then he piled things on
a tray, carried them away, came
back to sit in the chair opposite
her. stuffing bis pipe and looking
expectantly toward her.
“Now, who's been mean to you?”
She gave him a flicker of a smile,
but immediately her face was se­
rious again.
“I feel so ashamed of having both­
ered you with it! But I—I felt that
I was going mad, and you were the
only friend I could think ot I just
thought that if you were coming to
town you might take me for a drive.
I didn't mean all this!”
“I tell you my troubles.” he re­
minded her, drawing on his pipe.
“You see. we girls at Saint Doro­
thea's never know much about our
families. It isn’t a regular school
you know. There aren't any vaca­
tions, and no relatives coming to
see you.”
“That's the school you came
from?”
“Yes. I was there thirteen years,
from the time I was seven. But I
remembered my mother before that,
and that I had a nurse named
Emma.”
“Fran told me something about
it”
"At least I thought she was my
nurse, and I used to imagine that
my mother had been—well, rich, I
suppose, because someone had left
money to take care of me—and that
Judge Marshbanks was my guard­
ian.”
"I see. Go on. Marchioness."
“Well then when I came down
and they'd found me a position with
Mrs. Porter. Emma told me one
day that she was my mother's sis­
ter. She wasn't a nurse at all. she
was—she is my aunt!”
“A jolt, huh?”
"I don't think it was a jolt be­
cause she was a housekeeper and
because I’d always thought of her
as a nurse,” Cherry said.
Close to tears again she looked
blindly into the darting daggers and
stars of the fire, and tried to steady
her trembling lips.
“My dear girl” Kelly Coates said,
taking his pipe from his mouth,
“loads of people are going to love
you, don’t you worry!”
Cherry laughed brokenly, stealth­
ily wiped her eyes, and went on,
“but, jou see, Mrs. Porter left me
some money—’’
“Well, bully for her!” Kelly com­
mented. “Have a good cry over
that!"
“They read the will today. The
house is going to be a museum, and
lots of the furniture will be left
there, and Amy gets a lol and we
all get money.”
Cherry paused as if undecided how
to proceed, then rushed on, "But
then—but then, after they’d read
the will, Amy and the judge and I
were having tea in the library, and
we were talking about what Amy'd
do and what I’d do and all that,
and I happened to call Emma 'Aunt
Emma.’ ’’
“Bui he's your guardian. He’d
know that she was your aunt.”
“Oh, yes, that wasn't it. And
when Amy seemed surprised I just
said that I called her that some­
times, and Amy didn’t pay any at­
tention. But afterward Amy went
out and then the judge asked me if
Emma had told me about it, and I
said yes, because I thought that was
all he meant."
“What was all he meant?”
“That Aunt Emma was mother's
sister.”
“And what more did he mean?”

"I'm la tr-trouble and I've been crying, and 1 wondered if you’d come—
come—come and take me for a drive!” stammered Cherry.
“Well that—that—he went on talk­
ing about it and that Aunt Emma
was so fine even if she was rather
cold, and then he said that his broth­
er Fred was really a good person
but impulsive and always getting
into trouble ...”
“His brother Fred!” Kelly had
kneeled to straighten a slipped log
in the fire.
He shot her a look
over his shoulder. “Fred was Amy's
father?”
“Yes. Amy's name is Amy Marsh­
banks.”
“That’s right too. There was an­
other brother?”
"No. Only Amy’s father.”
Kelly stopped his pipe halfway to
his mouth and stared at her.
"Huh.” he commented, in a brief
sound like a grunt.
“And it — it killed me,” Cherry
said, not crying now, but pale and
beginning to be agitated again. “It
killed me! She's always had every­
thing—she’ll have more now—but
it's not that! It's that they all loved
her and wanted her and they’ve
made so much of her and she's al­
ways had—I mean. I don't want
anything she has—but they love
her .
She steadied suddenly at the sight
of his attentive but not too sympa­
thetic face and for a moment looked
at him in silence.
"I mean.” she went on presently,
gaining self-control with every word,
"I mean that it—it sickened me to
think that Amy and I are half sis­
ters, and that he, my father, could
treat my mother so terribly—my
mother was so gentle, and she was
ill so long! And she got nothing,
and I spent all those years at Saint
Dorothea’s while Amy was travel­
ing
. ."
Her voice trailed off into an
ashamed silence; the look she
turned to Kelly became aggrieved
and then apologetic. For a full min­
ute neither spoke, and then Cherry
said something timidly, "Don't you
think that's terrible?”
"You rather knew, 1 suppose.”
Kelly began, "that things in your
background had been somewhat ir­
regular?”
“Oh, yes, I did. Indeed. I did!
They don’t tell you anything at Saint
Dorothea's, you know, but of course
the girls talk. And we read books.”
"Well, then, looky. Cherry. Why
is it so much worse to know that
your father came of a good family,
and that he really tried to do what
he could for you? I suppose it was
he who supported your mother. Em­
ma’s sister, and left money to take
care of you?”
“Yes; the judge said so today."
“You're better off than I am,"
said Kelly. "You’re twenty and I’m
thirty-one. You’ve got all the world
before you, and I’m so damned in
love with a married woman that I
don’t know what to do with my­
self."
He glanced at his watch. "It’s
ten-ten. I’m going to run you home."
They went out into the darkness to
the car.
He stopped at the gloomy Porter
mansion and got out and went up
to the door with her.
“You’ll never know what you’ve
done for me tonight,” Cherry said in
the dark columns of the entrance.
"You did something for me too.
I’ve been seeing blue devils all day.
Listen." he went on in a brighter
tone, "here's a bargain. If you get
too down, you telephone me, and if
I’m going crazy any time I’D tele­
phone you, and we'll walk ft off
together. There are swell walks up
over the hills over my way. How
about it?”
“I would think it the nicest thing
that ever happened to me," she said
in a low tone.
“It’s a go, then.”
"There's only one thing. If we
do that then I mightn’t ever have
any troubles," Cherry explained, her
hand in his.
"You know what you ought to get
for that,” His arm held her lightly,
his lips brushed her forehead and
he was gone.
Emma had gone with her kitten to
the country now, and Cherry was to
leave for Palo Alto in a few days,
to take possession of a room in the
house of one Mrs. Pringle, and to
begin summer-school work and to do
a certain amount of coaching so as
to be able to enter college as a regu­
lar student in the fall. On this par­
