Chapter 21 GEORGIE'8 CHOICE AT FIRST Georgia thought that Eddie was looking (or her but be hurried straight down down and down, stumbling and eliding and the next moment she beard Gill's slow voice. "Hello, sir?" "Oh. hullo. GUI!" Eddie's voice was slow, too, In spite of the frantic hurrying of his feet. "I got a hit tired of my own company. Say, It'll be a long time before Miss Jenny Is back won't It?" "Only Just gone," remarked GUI, after long thought, "S'pose so." Eddie sighed and shuffled. "I got lonesome. Want a match, too. Couldn't find ' any matches." Georgle leaned over the bannis ters and peered down. At the bot tom of the well, In the ball of the building, Eddie was lighting a cigar ette while Gill stood silently by. As though the first few whiffs steadied Mirror. She could not see wnethei In the ml;ror be was watching her or himself and she went on chatter ing to bide her doubts. "It was better that I shouldn't see you Just for those few minutes that I had before I went away. I It would have upset us both and you aren't feeling any too lively, any way, and of course I have to keep my head clear for my Job. Besides, I knew it was only for a day or two. Vou you don't mind?" He was staring down at bis hands. dangling between his knees. Georgle bit her lift perplexed and embar rassed. She had been apologizing to blm and she bad no more meant to do that than she had meant to pick a quarrel with Jenny or sit moping on the stairs! What in tbe world was happenlnc to her? "I'm tired out," she muttered and at that he Jumped to his feet 'No wonder! Only old Matching would work a woman as though aht were a machine! You seed a boll' day Just as badly as I do. Girl- sweetheart let's come away now, at once, and have tbe rest of thi summer somewhere together." She shook her head, sighing and smiling, not as yet taking him seriously. 'If only I could! If only I hadn't bad my fortnight's holiday! Bu' iVe BEEN FLYINS FIFTEC YEARS, CHIEF I AND THIS ONE FOB "THE BOOK I Georgia leaned ever the bannlaters and peered down at Eddie. blm, he presently turned and ascend ed the stairs again. "There's a chair for yon In the office," Gill called after him, In a . burst of garrulity; but Eddie plod ded on and up. Exactly, thought , Georgle, as she herself had plodded, very step an effort! "We're both frightened, frightened of everything , and, oh, It's such a heartbreaking pity when we were going to be so happy!" she said aloud. But she had no mora time tor sorrow, she went firmly back to the apartment. She sang persistently and cheer fully as she burst Into her bedroom and threw her bat on the bed. She .. had left all doors open behind her and she could hear Eddie's hesltat : lng return. "That yon, dear boy? Come and welcome me home!" , "Girl!" He came crashing across tbe room, a big, eager man, and swept ber up and Into his arms. She shut her eyes as they kissed and all was . forgotten save the ecstasy of this homecoming. ' "Oh, girl, my girl! Jenny said you wouldn't be here till the end of the week!" She freed herself, breathless, ra diant. "I didn't think I should be, but at the last moment the Old Man called the doal off and we came back. He has kept me slaving all day or I'd have been here before. Ed, what do yon think of all this?" "All what?" "Well, the apartment darling, and all the new furniture." The light In Eddie's eyes dimmed. "Isn't It perfect!" she urged. "I wanted It to be perfect for us to come back to and It was such a ' shame that you had to see it when I wasn't even there to load you home and that wa couldn't have the triumphal arches and all the Illum inated addresses as I'd planned! Everything went wrong, didn't It? but It's all right now. It It perfect and we are In It together." He nodded and sat down on the eatln-covercd stool before the long there's no earthly hope of my wheedling another out of tbe Old Man bis temper these last days bas really been worth preserving as a museum-piece, too utterly aw ful for words. As things are, I've got to go gingerly with him." "As things are? What does that mean, 'as things are'?" "Well, dear boy " Sbe broke off, her perplexity growing. Then, as she saw that he was scowling, her uncertain mood changedalso. "Well, dear boy, someone baa got to keep the pot boiling and I seem to recol lect that we agreed It should be me?" "Then we can change our minds," snapped Eddie. "My wife doesn't pay for a lot of new furniture at the expense of her health and don't you reckon otherwise! You'll choose be tween me and your Job, my girl, and you'll choose now." Georgle was too tittorly dismayed to do anything but swire. This, sha considered, was the last straw to have to fight for her freedom to work, against the prejudices of a man who would, quite likely, bs able to work no more! For the vitality and the youth had faded from Ed die's face and he was very clearly a man with frightened eyes and Jerky hands a man no longer fit for his Job. "Go Into the living room, old dear," aha suggested, "and as soon aa I'm clean and rested, wa can talk." "I don't see that there's anything to talk about It's the Job or me." "I must rest and change," sha In sisted and after a momoment's Inde cision he nodded and went Into tha adjoining room. Sha dropped o.. to tbe dressing table bench and passed a hand over her face. Oh. but she waa tired. body and spirit, and before she could get bark her nervous energy she would have to argue and cajolo and plead!
