Theodore and Annabelle

Olive was getting used to the breast being stuck out in the open now. She felt sorry for Ann, who seemed to her diminished in her grief. Olive sat with Christopher, and Ann, and the baby, while little Henry, such a good boy, was asleep upstairs. Finally, they went off to bed in a study; she told him: "I'm getting married" He looked at her with such genuine astonishment that she felt she would take it back immediately if she could.
