He saw her finally, as she really was, nothing more than a child in rose-scent He watched the way she applied the paint, carefully out-lining her soft lips in pink accent. She was unlined, small boned, hardly formed and yet ... Like this she was a clever hook - - irresistable. Watching her now though, his concience found her indigestible. She had wrapped her hurt in nylon, lace and leather, instead of in the arms of a loving mother. He watched her erase the child with khol, and tiptoed from the hotel room ... home. |
