It was Sunday that this outing took place. I didn't see Mona until near dawn Tuesday. Not that I remained with Maude-no, I went straight to the office on Monday morning. Towards noon I telephoned Mona and was told that she was asleep. It was Rebecca who answered the telephone. She said Mona hadn't been home all night, that she had been rehearsing. And where were you all night? she demanded, almost with proprietary solicitude. I explained that the child had been taken ill and that I had been obliged to stay with her all night.
You'd better think up something better than that, she laughed, before you talk to Mona. She's been telephoning all night. She was frantic about you.
