Mary Marie

CHAPTER III
5/28

She's done it lots of times since.
As I said, she wouldn't tell me, so I had to ask some one else.

I wasn't going to let it go by and not find out--not when Nurse Sarah looked so scared, and when it was something my father and mother were going to have some day.
I didn't like to ask Mother.

Some way, I had a feeling, from the way Nurse Sarah looked, that it was something Mother wasn't going to like.
And I thought if maybe she didn't know yet she was going to have it, that certainly _I_ didn't want to be the one to tell her.

So I didn't ask Mother what a divorce was.
I didn't even think of asking Father, of course.

I never ask Father questions.
