She knew now how unfair she had been. Somehow, she had to make it up to Dave. That she could love him in return was something this rig id ! thing in her heart would not perm it | her to consider. She had frozen | herself into a mold so long ago. She could not alter the form of what she must be to herself, but with that sureness came an overwhelm ing loneliness. She had dedicated herself to a memory, to a ghost, and it was like being chained to an unanswering tomb. The dreadful part was that there was always that secret feeling of menace about that tomb. " I'm a fo o l!” she said aloud, sharply, snatching her hands down and jerking her body erect. She doused her face with cold wa ter, gave her hair a few disciplining strokes with a brush.
