I saw the way she looked at men, flirted with her eyes and her laugh,
even turning her coquettish devices on John Amos. It was already
important to her that when she walked into a room, all eyes be on
her.

With midsummer beauty now in and out and around our house, I felt a
sense of optimism and hope. Because of our new faith in God, Malcolm
and I had settled into a more comfortable and cordial relationship. Our
strengthened faith and commitment was our common ground.

And so when the letter from Alicia arrived, I felt it was part of God's
great new design for us. I recognized the handwriting immediately.


I held the letter in my hand for a long mon considering what Malcolm's
reaction would be wh( discovered I had opened and read it. But th
thought, after what had happened and after what ] done; anything
pertaining to Alida now was my i as well as his. He had no right to
privacy when it < to her. I opened the envelope and took out the see
pink stationery.

and obvious excitement disturbed me. I made him wait. I walked to the
chair across from him, contemplated sitting in it, and then turned back
to him. He was practically on the edge of the settee.

"Did she write to you?" he asked, his voice rising with
anticipation.

"No. The letter was addressed to you. But as soon as I saw from whom
it had come, I opened it. I have a right," I added quickly.

"What does she want?" he demanded.
