Forget your troubles, returned Lucy tenderly. Clara had beenan unconscionable flirt; to-day no trace of pert provocativeness wasmanifest. Games and books, work and play, had already made incalculable differences.
Least of all did he question Lucy about the pretty sister, but hedrank in all that was said. Perhaps Edd Denmeade wouldsee through tact and cleverness. Something of pride, somethingelevating, attended her changing attitude toward him. By going into the hotel entrance Lucy avoided the boys slowly gravitatingtoward her. I was askin my husband that very question.
She recognised the handsome face and figure of one ofthem. Suppose the stage beats us to Cedar Ridge! Perhaps Edd Denmeade wouldsee through tact and cleverness. You keep an eye openfor the stage while I run in to see Mrs. Jenks helped Lucy to mountthe high seat beside Joe, and bade them a merry good-bye. Likewise she excited andstimulated an interest in reading.
Lynn greeted her most cordially, and was equally curiousand informative.
Indeed, I hope she takes a shine to Baldy and everything here, declaredLucy earnestly.
Oh, I want Clara to have the pleasure of riding him. Yes; I have an old riding suit that I hate, said her sister. Ill never leave these beautiful, comfortingwoods.
The other was a taller, lither man, with flashing redface and flaming hair of gold.
Its settled, then, shes corning, mused Lucy dreamily. Edd, you must come back to your old self.
Isnt it very strange for Edd to scold anyone,much less Mertie?
Whereupon Joe exhibitedsurprising qualifications for the trust she had imposed upon him.
Lucy, relieved as well as amused at the quick start, turned to find Clararemoving the veil. An if thats all the baggage we can be movin along.
Im shockedat what you say, but yet I feel absolutely sure Mertie is still good. By going into the hotel entrance Lucy avoided the boys slowly gravitatingtoward her. Here he ceased to lookback down the road, as if no longer expecting the boys to catch up withhim. Perhaps the old lofty superiority hadunwittingly cropped out again.
Now tell me what you think is wrong with Mertie.
