She had been watch ing him as he talked. She liked his even teeth and his broad mouth with the quirk in the corners. His hair was almost the color of hers, with a clean shine in it. And such a pleasant manner— "Oh-ho,” said someone behind her, “we’ll have to put a stop to this.” They looked away from each other for the first time to find everyone looking at them and Al holding a watch. “Ten minutes in one corner is long enough for people who have just been introduced. Come on—cir culate!” He couldn’t say more than a few words to her until the party broke up. As he held her coat. “It’s over much too soon.” She nodded. “But you’ll let me take you home, won't you?

I was sorry at first, but he was 30 nasty—talked about woman drivers and said I should have my eyes looked after—that I told him I was sorry I hadn't put on full speed and knocked the 3tuff- in^out of him." Roberts felt a cold chill come over him. He drew himself up. “The light, my dear madam, was green on my side for a full ten seconds before I entered the intersection.” Myrtle looked at him, startled. She had heard that sentence and that tone of voice once before. The same cold chill fell upon her: “It was you!” They stood and glared at each other. Then she turned and marched straight out, and he gathered up his coat and hat and left with a look so furious that everyone moved out of his way. Then one day he saw her again. She was driving that roadster just ahead of him. His heart jumped, then settled down to pounding. He followed her without thinking—with out knowing why. As they drove, he could see her face reflected in the rear-view mirror of her car—glory of perfect skin, pert nose, sweet lips, wisps of that chestnut hair. Her eyes were looking at him— Looking at the reflection of his own face in the mirror as it came to her from behind! And so their eyes met and held each other, separated by fifteen feet and each looking into the same tiny glass that held for the moment all the world. The two cars moved down the street. There was a traffic light on a pole in the middle of the street. The light showed red. A policeman shouted. Her car went right on and knocked the pole with a great crash. He couldn’t stop. He rammed into the back of her car. Then he could only crawl out and go to her where she stood shakily by her ruined road ster. "I’m sorry — terribly sorry. It was all my fault.” "No, no. I should have seen the light. I was ahead...” They both stopped and smiled at each other. "You were staring.” “Yes, so were you.” He held her hand, and they faced the purple policeman so calmly and so much together that he could only gape at them.
