Page 121 CHAPTER IXasked Freeman for the names and Freeman did not
know, unless someone had told him. It was all horribly confusing,
and through all was the shame of being treated like a silly lower
boy by Robin. He remembered now what Robin had said. " You're
bloody little fools. Now get to bed and don't let the night hag
catch you." It had been such a grand evening at Devil's Island.
He wished his mother could have seen him dancing with Lady Bridget.
She would have been proud. And the cigarettes and the cider cup
and the car. And then to be ticked off by Robin as if they had
done something small and contemptible. Denis determined he would
never mention the evening before Robin. He would be simple and
natural with Robin, as he had tried to be before. He would certainly
never ask him who told Wren. It was lovely to relax every limb
and lie there in the darkness. |
