Being good had brought Ant to the place where she wore a cheap brown cost and a funny little hat she had probably picked up in a basement, to the point where she slopped about in the cold rain wearing ugly galoshes when she could be riding around in

This type of reasoning was making Allan feel better. He was beginning to forget how Ann's eyes had looked, In the living room, Ann was trying to be calm, to think clearly, "I'm trapped," she was telling herself. "He planned this. I must not an- tagonize him.""

She would go into the front of the house, turn on the radio and then un- luck the door, putting the key in the lock on the outside.
