It was narrow, and winding, and so required 10 minutes at the best possible speed. He was sobbing in a sort of restrained hysteria. Neither he nor the man with him could speak. Bob had black visions of his village completely buried or at least laid In death and ruin. Specifically, he suffered in seeing Carolyn Tyler dead a thousand ways. He swerved around the last carve, then, and Instantly identi fied Carolyn herself. He yelled at her. "CAROLYN! . CAROLYN! It was a wild, frenzied cry which slipped Into infinite gladness when ha saw that she was actually running. I aaa rpHE village seemed intact, and other folk were stirring now, but he recognized Carolyn from afar partly because he so desper ately wanted to and partly because he couldnt mistake the bright red shirt she stall wore, the same one she had worn during the ride. That shirt had Intrigued him for two hours this afternoon. It had been a gay challenge to Leana Sormi's severe black-and-white riding habit. It had been precisely i the right complement for Caro lyn's flaxen curls. It had topped I Just right her dark blue, form-J fitting jodhpurs, to emphasize her! as the slender, lovely girl she was. 1 He stopped his car when he had to, Jumped out and started run-! ning. There was no outpouring of words between them. All at once he was holding her. Just clasping her tight, feeling her cry and trembling powerfully with tier in sheer intensity of emotions. It was she who murmured first. "Bob! . . , Bob!" Little girl! He kissed the top (of her forehead, still squeezing her, close. He shut his eyes tightly. here was a strange, sad, and yet I testacy between them. was no chance to relax for almost 24 hours. But late that second day, amid the stor ing and the milling and the ex tern ent of peoples arriving and loing through all the inevitable, if idly hullabaloo, Bob said that the ftime had come to take Carolyn hway lest she drop In her tracks, pier mother had already been sent (to Blair, along with most of the Remaining personnel here in the Imountain village. Ofilcials from the Arizona county seat, 100 miles .away, had come to take charge. First thing Bob did was to make Carolyn eat She had lived only on la sandwich and a few cups of cof tfee forced on her since yesterday. , "You must eat also," she re minded him, there in the tiny Blair Jinn. "Gee, Bob, we do get into the atwfullest things!" The meal was a life saver. In 'both It restored strength, energy, hope. i "Mind if we don't go back to night?" he asked wanly, after the twilight meal. "Let s just ride out alone, where we can think." They didn't have to go far. Only mile or so to escape the flood fit newspaper men, photographers, officers, curious folk who had poured in. They left Bob's car and at on a flat red boulder near the road. Stars had begun their timeless winking. Later there would even be a moon, but already the world was beautiful with the soft, eva nescent something that is early night ' Presently they found themselves talking. Quietly, intimately, dis passionately going over the whole thing, recounting all the weeks since she had first come to work lor him, re-living the horror of the explosion itself but in a new feel ing of deep gratitude for escape. , "I waited for you. Bob, at the guard shack, when the guards told me you had not come by," she repeated for perhaps the tenth time. "I just did! But when it happened, I was afraid you had gone in! The granite cliff saved us even there, but I couldn't know .about you." , He held her very close. "You waited. For me! It seems to me that I have waited for you since time began, Carolyn! Waited and hungered for you. I was so madly 'in love with you when you dropped from the airplane that if it lhadn't been for your Ken Palmer, J should have Carolyn, I warn you I don't Intend to be a gentle man ever again! You had told me iin the beginning that Ken loved tyou. I felt it only fair to f ' "But I didn't tar I ti.-mi She laughed again. "And all this, while I thought you indifferent!" He shook his head a llltla hit- terly. "I tried dutifully t (myself on Leana. Thinking, and tfeartagah and I might might- POWER Remember, I even appealed to you!" "I remember," Carolyn whis pered. "It Is tragic, even so, to know her guilty of this. I had no idea she felt so deeply in a personal way! But Carolyn, may we not promise never to mention that as pect of it again? Anything that would cause unhappiness to linger in you !" "Of course. Bob. Oh Bob. please hold ma very close, and kiss me again!" aaa THEY talked for more than an A hour, quietly, tenderly. It was the best solace they could have arranged. He grew, if possible, more dear to her than ever, more grand. It was he who suggested giving Ken Palmer a far better Job in the Schoenfeld Laboratory back home. It was he who swore then to tell the secret of deriving X-999 to a dozen other picked American sci entists, who could form a corpora tion for developing it in the safe est sanest way. It was he who. finally, said, "I think I have earned a rest Caro lyn, and I'd like it to be a year, with you. Summer is near, and the Pacific Northwest is beautiful. Then a lazy sea trip down the coast and across to Mexico City They say it's romance land, sweet heart! Romance land!" He had slipped into a boyish sort of enthusiasm. Here was a Bob Hale she had never known (before! She could not answer, in words; there was a tautness in her throat But she could press her head a little closer into the crook THIS CURIOUS WORLD I U.
