The Brussels Post, 1941-6-25, Page 2Lovel rom The Sea By Amy Miller Between them they got some loge ablaze, and Poppy mixed Teddy's drink, and brought it to him and sat down orposite to him, with the glow of the fire on her dainty frock, She held out her feet to the warmth, Teddy had sat down in Jane chair and it hurt to see him where Jan ought to have been and yet it was comforting to have someone to come home with her. "Don't you feel lonesome here, Poppy, with nobody to talk to?" "It's awful sometimes," she con- fessed. "And yet when there's two people it's different," "It's lovely then."

TI•IE BRUSSELS POST Por,the moment, a man'a Ups- on Iter own again, she made no resist. Duce, but this was not Jan: Iter one lover -411s was Teddy, whose kiss was a wrong to the beloved. She felt his clasp relax auddenly, and freed herself just es a heavy tread sounded on the floor. Towering above them both, with a look on his face that transformed. 111w. she saw her husband—Nil Ca/0M1. VL "Oh, floppy, I've been a fool!" For Life—For Death. "Teddy, what's the matter-" she cried, He had suddenly dropped his head in hi, hands. "Tell me What's the matter," she said. and went over to liim, "It's coming home with you -sae. ing you here—thinking what might have been, if I'd understood! I knew I was fond of you, Poppy, I didn't know how much I cared till I knew Pd last you!" 'Teddy, you mustn't feel like that' she cried in dismay. "I can't help it. I just love you, Poppy. There are other girls, I know,. but there's nobody like you! And I didn't find it out till it was too late. 1 shall never love anybody else as I love you ----I shall never forget you!" "Teddy. if led known you felt like that I wouldn't have met you again,' she cried, diets essfully, "I'm so sorry. 1 thought we could be friends still. though I'm married. "You don't rare," he cried, "It's noth°ng to you that I've come to feel that I don't mind what becomes of me now I've lost you." "Oh. Teddy, It isn't fair that! 1 never blew you felt like that about me," she protested. "You Just went away without a word" "You told me you didn't want to see me again, Didn't you mean it?" "Not hen," she admitted: "But, Teddy, you know it's Jan I lave now. I'm his wife, so what's the use of talking of what's over and done with? Don't take it like this. I ought not to have been. seeing you— I wouldn't if Pd known." He turned, clinging to her as ;he stood beside him. "Teddy. it's time you went. You'll lose the bus. Let's say good-bye:" "Oh. Poppy, 1'11 never forget!" "Yes --yes, you will!" She tried to console, "You'll meet someone else, as I met Jan, and you'll think more of ber than ever you did of r,e. Teddy dear, you must go! I'm se sorry." 'Kiss me, Poppy just once! Give me something to remember," t, He looked up at her with wet eye,, and overwhelmed with compassion for him, she yielded to him as ho drew her towards him. Before she could realise what was happening he had pulled her on his knee, and holding her fast he kisesd her as she had never meant ho should. This was a Jan she had never seen—a savage creature, with blez- bug eyes! He snatched bee from the other ntan's side, flung her into the chair from which site had lately risen, and next moment was struggling with Teddy, dragging him to the dor, using language Poppy Mad never heard: "Jan! Jon!'' she cried, in piteous appeal. He did' not heed, Teddy was hell), less in his fierce clutches. They were out in the narrow .hall, She heard a heavy thud as the ranger loan was literally thrown out of the house. Then the slam of the door, Jan strode beck, wild-eyed dis- hevelled. She was terrified of him, as she crouched, sobbing. She was like a child who has been playing with some savage dog, subdued to gentleness, then suddenly roused to fury. , He stood looking down at her. "How long has this been going on? How long have you been fooling me—you and your lover?" "He's not he's not!" she manage ed to utter. Jan laughed. "I've finished with your lies!" he said, "You and that—" He: He called Teddy names she did•not know the meaning of. No language was too vile for lits supposed rival. "Lying in his arms—there in my place!" he raved, "I saw you through the window—you, that 1 thought too innocent for me! You're the same as the rest! And me thinir. Ing of you, a little white angel! Why- you're hyyou're nothing hut--" "Jam, listen to me!" She made a desperate effort, stag- gered to her feet, and tried to take hold of him, but he turned away, "Jan!" she •entreated, following him. "Let me go!" he said, hoarsely. 'Let me go before I kill you! I'd sooner see you dead than like you were to -night" His hand was on the door. Next moment 71e WAS out in the darkness and the driving sleet, striding to the gate down the lane. She ran after him, but sere could not overtake him. The ground was slippery and she fell, and lay, toe weak to struggle to her feet for ,t few moments, yet, shivering, but more with terrible agitation than Canadian Pacific Builds First Canadian a ; It was a proud day for the Can- adian Pacific Railway's Angus Shops at Montreal when D.

There were his hat and glee - es and overcoat, where he had put them down, Teddy, Who didn't Matter, had made Jan talk of killing her and call her vile names, It couldn't be Jan, though, that swage creature who filled hell with terror—who might come back, leer-) hams,to murder her.

She and Teddy had left II I on the latch, and so enabled Jan to± eater, She coul not understand his sud- den appearance, for she had not ex- pected him for another week. She he feared it might be longer. And now she was afraid of him, dreading lest she should hear the footstep for which she had longed. Once she thought of her neigh- boars but she would not seek p"a- tect!on, If Jan came back to kilt her, she must face him alone. It could not be true—her Jan, the kindest, gentlest of men! She thought of his great hands that used to tomtit her so tenderly, so reverently. She would be as helpless as a small bird in those same hands if he came near her w!•tth murder in his heart. And -what had she done to pro- voke '.hie fury? She had had no thought of falsehood. She didn't love Teddy—had not meant frim to kiss her like that. He Iliad not attempted to make love to her be- fore. TO 138 CONTINTIDD.
