At
the
minute
when
he
wondered
whether
or
not
he
had
time
for
a
drink
at
the
buffet
,
and
began
clutching
at
the
soggy
wad
of
thousand
-
franc
notes
in
his
pocket
,
one
end
of
his
pendulous
glance
came
to
rest
upon
the
apparition
of
Nicole
at
the
stairhead
.
He
watched
her
—
she
was
self
-
revelatory
in
her
little
expressions
as
people
seem
to
some
one
waiting
for
them
,
who
as
yet
is
himself
unobserved
.
She
was
frowning
,
thinking
of
her
children
,
less
gloating
over
them
than
merely
animally
counting
them
—
a
cat
checking
her
cubs
with
a
paw
.
782
When
she
saw
Abe
,
the
mood
passed
out
of
her
face
;
the
glow
of
the
morning
skylight
was
sad
,
and
Abe
made
a
gloomy
figure
with
dark
circles
that
showed
through
the
crimson
tan
under
his
eyes
.
They
sat
down
on
a
bench
.
783
"
I
came
because
you
asked
me
,
"
said
Nicole
defensively
.
Abe
seemed
to
have
forgotten
why
he
asked
her
and
Nicole
was
quite
content
to
look
at
the
travellers
passing
by
.

"
That
’
s
going
to
be
the
belle
of
your
boat
—
that
one
with
all
the
men
to
say
good
-
by
—
you
see
why
she
bought
that
dress
?
"
Nicole
talked
faster
and
faster
.
"
You
see
why
nobody
else
would
buy
it
except
the
belle
of
the
world
cruise
?
See
?
No
?
Wake
up
!
That
’
s
a
story
dress
—
that
extra
material
tells
a
story
and
somebody
on
world
cruise
would
be
lonesome
enough
to
want
to
hear
it
.
"

She
bit
close
her
last
words
;
she
had
talked
too
much
for
her
;
and
Abe
found
it
difficult
to
gather
from
her
serious
set
face
that
she
had
spoken
at
all
.
With
an
effort
he
drew
himself
up
to
a
posture
that
looked
as
if
he
were
standing
up
while
he
was
sitting
down
.

"
The
afternoon
you
took
me
to
that
funny
ball
—
you
know
,
St
.
Genevieve
’
s
—
"
he
began
.
787
"
I
remember
.
It
was
fun
,
wasn
’
t
it
?

"
No
fun
for
me
.
I
haven
’
t
had
fun
seeing
you
this
time
.
I
’
m
tired
of
you
both
,
but
it
doesn
’
t
show
because
you
’
re
even
more
tired
of
me
—
you
know
what
I
mean
.
If
I
had
any
enthusiasm
,
I
’
d
go
on
to
new
people
.

There
was
a
rough
nap
on
Nicole
’
s
velvet
gloves
as
she
slapped
him
back
:

"
Seems
rather
foolish
to
be
unpleasant
,
Abe
.
Anyhow
you
don
’
t
mean
that
.
I
can
’
t
see
why
you
’
ve
given
up
about
everything
.
