But how difficult it had beenl Travelling to town, Cherry went buck uvcr the last three years, re- nlembering the first time silo had scan sinlon. It had been a warm sunny Spring day a Sunday, u/nd sllc had been walking across Hamp- stead Heath. she had tripped and fallen and he had picked her up. She found when she tried to walk that she'd hurt her ankle and he'd taken her home a taxi when he said good-bye to hor, after first seeing her comfort- ably settled on the sofa in the sit- ting room, he said, “Couldn't we meet again sometime?"

For Cherry that. had been the bcelvning. There hed been some- thing about him. the way he look- ed. [be way he spoke, that she had llokbeen sblcto put it into words even to herself» But her heart had. turned over and her pulses quickeincd whenever he eras near her, and she had known -alm0st with a sense of forebod- ing. which she was to learn later had certainly been Justified-that ahere could never be any other mun for her.

At the time she and Denise had been sharing rm apartment to- gether. Denise had been s. much sought after photographers model. You ss-w her lovely face smiling at your from the billboards. You saw Denise in magazine advertise- ments and in newspapers, too.

De; e had been away when Ch _ had met Simon. When sh. returned Cherry said, “I've mc‘. rather‘ a nlcc man while you've bccn out of town. Ho's coming rround this evening. His name's Simon Lindon."

"Shall I liko him?" Denise had WTi-lllCd to know.

"I'm sure you will. No could _holp if."

Denise had liked him so much ‘that within six weeks she had married llim- From the very first moment they met, Cherry had known it was going to happen. She liiijlrft blam§d_Denise-.___It wasn't

her fault that she was so beauti- ful that every man she met fell in love with her. It wasn't as if she, Cherry, had even given her l. hint as to how she herself felt about him. If she'd said, perhaps, before they met, "Please ---- - even if you do like him. leave ill for me. After ell I found m first. You have so many other men. And. you see, I've (e110! in love With him."

If she~ had only said smell-ling like this, then everythin W011i have been different. An yet _. no. she didn't really think so. be- cause Denise would still no doubt have wanted Simon, and in that case nothing would have stopped her from getting him. Iibr always. ever since Cherry had know her. Denise somehow managed to get whatever she wanted. so she had said nothing. Instead she'd taken herself in hand and shut her heart against hlm- There had seemed to her nothing else she could do. And she had never let Denise know how much ab‘ lov- ed Simon. Her only prayer bed been that the other girl would make him happy. She tried to tell herself that. if she did this. nothing 915a mattered.

Whether that prayer had been answered or not was something that Cherry could never quite de- cide. From Simon, of course, she learned nothing. and according lo Denise everything at first was wonderful. She assured Cherry she was wildly happy. Then gradually Denise became a little less enthusiastic about married life. She would complain that Simon. who held a very responsible position in a Government depart- ment in Whitehall, was far wrapped up in his job. He had little time to ink‘. her out. "It's all very well, Cherry, but Simon might remember that a young wife likes to R0 places occasionally." Cherry knew that, if she had only been the young wife, in question. she would never have wanted £30
