Chapter SI
David's Surprise Dinner
TJUTTON was tugging at a corner
u of the bed-clothes. '
It wakened David.
"Hey, stop it, you dope! Don't
you know that's organdy, boy?"
"Organdy! It's crepe de Chine,
stupid ..."
Nina had been awake for soma
moments, but she had lain there
' watching David. He looked quite
adorable, asleep ... his brilliant
hair, all tousled: and his expres
sion was so completely innocent,
that you just knew he could be a
very bad boy, upon occasions. The
really pure in heart never achieve
such a look of sanctity. Nina was
sure.
And she liked to watch him
wake up, too. Whether it was But
ton tugging at the covers, or Nina
shaking him, or whether he lust
woke up of his own accord, he al
ways looked so terribly surprised:
as though it was the most tre
mendous shock to And himself
where he was. At first Nina had
' laughed at him, and thought it was
because he wasn't used to waking
up in bed with a lady . . . but he
did it every morning of his life.
"What dsy is it, angel?" he
asked.
"Saturday."
"None. That's not riBht."
"Why, David, it is so Saturday!"
"Why. hell's bells, it may be
Saturday, but that s a minor point.
It's an anniversary, by God . . .
We've been married . . . one, two.
tnree, lour . , . lour months, to
day!" Darling! Happy anniversary,
Dnvid."
"Happy anniversary, Nina."
And later, when he was shav
ing, he stuck his lathered face
round the kitchen door.
"By the way, housewife," he
said, oh, so casually, "don't bother
about marketing . . . little David's
taking charge, for the day."
"Taking charge?"
"Um-hum . . . he's going to come
home early, and cook and wash
the dishes, and even get caught up
with the darning. Isn't that lust
too cute of him?"
"Well, to be frank, It's so damn
cute that I don't believe him!"
But he meant it; and, what's
more, he had planned for it ahead
of time, because Cordelia ap
peared at one o'clock, out of a clear
sky. with two tickets for a mati
nee, but she was anxious to get
home, and see what kind of a meal
David had been able to prepare by
himself,
David, Tou're A Madman r
IV'HEN she returned, at 5:30, she
' ' found that the keys had been
removed from her bag, so that she
had to ring, and David greeted her
In a nifty little house apron, with
rosebuds on it , . . and there was
pink hair ribbon tied In a strand
of his copper hair.
He hustled her into the bedroom,
and sat her down with a book;
bade her not to come out on pain
of death. Then he shut the door on
her.
At a little befori 7, when he sum
moned her, she found the table
perfectly laid, in the living-room.
There were sweet peas in the cen
ter of it, and right away, she
noticed glasses for wine.
"I can see that you have gone
completely haywire, David my
love ... we won't be able to afford
to eat for a month now, after this,
but it'll have been worth itl"
"Don't be previoav Walt till
you see how you li"e my little
snack."
"Well, snyway. It'll be worth It,
having seen you in your hair rib
bon!" He pulled out her chair, and dis
appeared into the kitchen.
The first thing he staggered in
with, was a cake of ice that must
have weighed at least 20 pounds.
The corners had been rounded
smoothly and there were little
flowers made out of vegetables,
nestling in parsley, around its base.
In the hollow at the top reposed a
mound of caviar.
"Fresh, no less." David boasted,
"not a thine out of a tin. the whole
meal!"
"Dnvid. you're mad. but you're
Ihe cleverest madman I ever came
across!"
She was almost too astonished to
tat . . , why she doubted if she
rould have made those beet rosea,
herself ; . .
The next thing was a clear

soup, rt was so superlative that
Nina knew he must have bought it
somewhere ... not in a tin, be
cause he had said not. and it didn't
taste canned ... but in a glass jar
After the soup there was some
thing of a pause, before he bore
in proudly a pheasant, the wingf
and tail feathers stuck in pieces of
potato, to give a realistic effect.
"I think I'm going to faint,
David!" and surely a man never
grinned more broadly, at the pros
pect of his wife swooning.
"Vend6me . . . 'de chez Venddtne'
Madam," he announced, grandly.
"I chose this fellow yesterday, and
they fixed him for me."
Bread sauce . . . lelly . . . little
browned Dotato balls . . . and
bright green peas. A bottle of white
wine, wrapped expertly in a nap
kin . . . chilled lust enough, but
not too much.
AH gator pear salad, and two
kinds of cheese with their demi-
tasse ...
"David, am I dreaming?" She
really thought she must be.
"Now Bet this. baby, lust Be
cause I showed you my stuff, this
evening, don't expect me to be the
cook from now on!"
"Ill never o near the stove
again, my friend. You made a big
mistake being so good. You're
elected!"
She raved and raved, in what
must have been a very heart
warming manner, to David. She
did want him to know how much
she appreciated his efforts, but in
truth she was so astounded by
the whole affair, that she could nol
help herself.
Where had he learnt to do all
this? How did he know that bread
sauce went with pheasant . . . Well.
they d told him probably, at Ven
d6me . . . but how did he know
about Vendflme , . .

Nina, sweet, let me explain that 1
had a slight windfall of 25 bucks.
and I decided to blow it all in on
your matinee, and this annivers
ary dinner."
"And you needing shoes, like the
very devil! You're the dearest,
sweetest, most . . ."
"Show me!" he Interrupted;
and Nina did.
That was what he wanted most
of all. it seemed . . . Darling David.
Clifford's Expose
HE refused to let her clear up;
refused to Jet her go near the
kltchan. Nina suspected that it was
in a rare mess.
But once, when David was
answering the telephone in the
bedroom, she heard the sound of
the back door slamming.
She crossed the living-room, and
the hall, and peeked through the
swinging door.
Something moved, suspiciously,
in the brush and broom closet; and
Nina was certain someone had
come In the back way, and was
crouching there.
She was frightened, but she
walked over to it.
"Who's in there?" she demanded.
"Come out, right awny!"
Absolute silence in the brush
and broom closet.
"David!" she called loudly,
"come here, hurry."
And then she saw the door open,
slowly, before her eves.
"Sh-h-h. Missv!" said a h!h.
squeaky voice. "We hiding."
A little yellow race Deered out
of the darkness with one tiny claw
of a finger pressed warningly
against the lips.
Mister, he be velly. velly mad-
like-hell."
Nina was rocking back and forth
with laughter, when David dashed
in.
"David you lying rascal . . . vou
fake, you!"
So-o-o. he shook his flst at the
cringing Chinaman, still in the
crowded closet. "So-o-o, you made
a noise, eh7 . . . Lome out of there,
Clifford."
He came out all the scared four
feet ten of him; and he looked so
abiect that David smiled.
"That's all right, ole fella. Mrs.
Day would have heard you wash
ing the dishes anvway. But we
fooled her for a while, didn't we,
pal?"
"You're a slmplv marvelous
cook, er ... is it really 'Clifford'7"
"Yeah." David answered for him.
"He's got a name that sounds like
Hl-Le. H1-I..0 with a endenza on
the end of It, so he prefers to be
called 'Clifford' for short."
"Well, you're a swell chef, Clif
ford." He beamed.
"All time cooking, me llkee
housel ... Me llkee Joke, too!" and
he laughed very loudly, to show
them.
When he had pocketed his $3 and
departed, and David and Nina
were closing up for the night, she
started in all over again.-
"I never had such a good time,
sweetheart. You're the dearest,
most thoughtful, dnrlingest . . ."
And he said again: "Just show
me . . ."
So Nina did.
