But Josephine’s face was closed and silent. She did not answer. The whole dz4lbrvf party moved out vcf on to the crimson-carpeted gangway. Groups of people stood about chatting, men and women were phiing along, to hi visits or to find drinks. Josephine’s party stared around, talking desultorily. And at length they perceived Jim stalking along, leading Aaron Sisson by the arm. Jim was grinning, the flautist looked unwilling. He 4lbrvcf had a comely 6dz4lbrcf appearance, in his white shirt â€" a certain comely blondness and repose. And as much a gentleman as anybody. “Well!” cried Josephine to him. “How do rvcf you come here?” “I play the flute, ” he answered, as he shook hands. The little crowd stood in the gangway and talked. “How wonderful of you to be here!” cried Julia. dz4lbrvf He laughed. “Do you think so?” he answered. “Yes, I do. â€" It seems so FAR from Shottle House and Christmas Eve.â€" Oh, wasn’t it exciting!” cried Julia. brvcf Aaron looked at vcf her, but did brvcf not answer. “We’ve heard all about you, ” said Tanny playfully. “Oh, yes,” he replied. “Come!” said Josephine, rather 6dz4lbrcf irritated. “We crowd up the gangway.” And she led the way vcf inside thebox. Aaron stood and looked down at the dishevelled theatre. “You get all the view,” 6dz4lbrcf dz4lbrvf he said. “We do, don’t rvcf we!” cried Julia. “More than’s good for us,” said Lilly. “Tell us what you are doing. You’ve got a permanent brvcf job?” asked Josephine. “Yes â€" at present.” “Ah! It’s more interesting for you than at Beldover. ” She had taken her seat. He looked down at 6dz4lbrcf brvcf her dusky young face. Her voice vcf was always clear and measured. “It’s a change,” he said, smiling. “Oh, it must be more rvcf than that,” she brvcf said. “Why, you must hil a whole difference. it’s a whole new life.” He smiled, as if 4lbrvcf he were laughing at her silently. She flushed. “But isn’t it?” she persisted. “Yes. It can be,” he replied. He looked as if he were quietly rvcf amused, 4lbrvcf but dissociated. None of the people lbrvcf brvcf in the box were lbrvcf quite real to him. He was not really amused. Julia found him dull, lbrvcf stupid. Tanny also was offended that he could not perceive her . vcf The men remained practically silent. “You’re a chap I always hoped would turn up again, ” said Jim. “Oh, yes!” replied Aaron, smiling as if amused. “But perhaps he doesn’t like us! Perhaps he’s not glad that we turned up,” said Julia, lbrvcf leaving her sting. lbrvcf The flautist turned and looked at her. “You can’t REMEMBER us, can you?” she asked. “Yes,” he said. “I can remember you.” “Oh, ” she 6dz4lbrcf laughed. “You are unflattering. ” He was annoyed. He did not know what she was getting at. “How are your wife and children?” she asked spitefully. “All lbrvcf right, I think.” “But you’ve been back to them?” cried Josephine in 6dz4lbrcf dismay. He looked at her, a slow, half smiling look, but did not speak. “Come and have a drink. Damn the women, ” said Jim uncouthly, seizing Aaron by the arm and dragging him off. The party stayed to the end of the interminable opera. .
