Levin Art by Denise Glrsud Wh 'hen rachel first arrived at the cot tage, she looked around hap pily at all the wonderful hiding places and paths that needed explor ing. The house was perched on a hill with a fine view of the ocean. Holiday Storm fill H1p3& ?iV- fcwJ The idea of living on an island ex cited her. The ferry ride, the drive through the strange countryside to the edge of the island by the lighthouse, and finally the discovery of her "own house" had been almost more excite ment than a five-year-old girl could stand in one day. It was a "tingly day," she told her father, but the best was yet to come. Supper was served before a picture window overlooking the ocean, and dessert and the sunset came at the same time! Rachel let out a chocolate covered squeal of delight as the orange ball of sun started to sink into the water directly opposite ler chair! Even big brother David was Impressed, though he remarked later that it was the only time he ever had a chance it a second helping of chocolate pudding because his sister was too busy watch ing the sun disappear, The next day it was hard to re member all the things she had liked so well. Rain clouds appeared early in the morning, and now al nap time her room was so dark and the thunder so loud that Rachel found herself wishing for her own little bed in the city. Even the noise of her six-year-old sister's breathing in He next bed failed to comfort her, Betsy olitayi managed to get to sleep so quickly, Sometimes at night, when Rachel was ready to play the endless make-believe games they whispered across the room, it was always during Betsy seemed to I Today Betsy went to sleep even be fore the thunderstorm started, and Rachel didn't want to wake her as this, too, seemed scary, Nap lime stretched out endlessly, and perspiration started dribbling down the back of her neck, It was hard to lie with her hands covering her ears, but the noise was so loud. Once Rachel ventured to turn over in search of a cool place In bed, but a clap of thunder sent her scram bling back to the "safe" position of lying on her back with her hands over her ears and her eyes shut light, Rachel could hear the noise of her mother cleaning up the lunch dishes downstairs. This was comforting, but the distance was too great for her to call without waking Betsy, David was away at a friend's house for lunch. Rachel wondered about that. Would David get wet! How would he get home in ill the rain! Daddy had left after lunch to get him, and Daddy always knew what to do, but wouldn't even Daddy have trou ble in this storm? Back at home Rachel had a room of her own. It was not as much fun as sleeping with Betsy, but it jw her a place to hide her treasures, and a door to shut when she wanted to be alone to cry. But here- It was hard not to cry, but she didn't want to be a "baby," as Belsy always called her when she cried, In spite of herself, Rachel gave one small sniffle, then another. Holding back the tears was such a job that she didn't hear Betsy's feet as they padded across the room to her bed, "I can't sleep either," Betsy whis pered. "I've been c wishing it would go away!" A warm glow filled Rachel as she gratefully moved over to make room in her bed for her sisler, It was re assuring to know that she was not the only one afraid, With a happy sigh, "she took her hands from her ears and turned to face the cool wall, 26 Family Weekly.
