CHAPTER 3
Moly Smith (FL)
Is there no way of finding out about this island ? ....
James Smith (FL Dad)
Moly Darling , forget him , You'll marry a nice - ....
Moly Smith (FL)
Father .... ( break in her voice )
Moly Smith (FL)
I'll never marry ....
James Smith (FL Dad)
This isn't a good decision Moly , you - ....
But her father's words were cut when the door opened and Lucinda walked in ....
Lucinda Smith (FL Sister)
That car whose is it ? ....
Lucinda Smith (FL Sister)
( Noticed Moly )
Lucinda Smith (FL Sister)
Oh , Moly , how good to see you And how brown you became from the sun , it makes you look quite attractive ...
Lots of questions , heartwarming smiles and much hand waving and yet Lucinda had never taken the trouble to call her one time in those two years .....
Lucinda Smith (FL Sister)
( suddenly stopped speaking )
Lucinda and her father glanced at one another and Moly sensed a tensed atmosphere ....
But no more was said about Paul until the two girls were in their bedroom .....
Lucinda getting ready for her date with Gerald , and Moly changing in preparation for a visit to one of Paul's friends ......
She had rung joe earlier and made the date to meet him ....
Her parents had previously arranged to attend a concert , and her brother was going with them ....
It suited her to have the evening free , for she had an irrepressible desire to find out where Paul was living ....
Lucinda Smith (FL Sister)
( put on her dress )( busy with her hair )
Lucinda Smith (FL Sister)
I expect they told you all about it ....
Lucinda Smith (FL Sister)
They kept it from you because you said you didn't want to hear anything about Paul and me ....
Moly Smith (FL)
" Yes , as It would hurt me too much .... "
Moly Smith (FL)
( watched her sister combing her hair )
Moly Smith (FL)
The accident Father didn't seem to know what had happened ....
Lucinda Smith (FL Sister)
Because I couldn't tell them very much . I was unconscious .....
Lucinda Smith (FL Sister)
Paul is blind , Father told you that i think ....
Moly flinched at the casual manner in which Lucinda spoke of Paul's tragic misfortune ....
Moly Smith (FL)
How could you abandon him like that .....
Lucinda Smith (FL Sister)
For heaven's sake don't continue ! I had enough of that from Mum and Dad ....
Lucinda Smith (FL Sister)
You'd all have had me marry him , but I'd have been the one to suffer ....
Lucinda Smith (FL Sister)
Just imagine spending your life with a man who can't see you ....
Lucinda Smith (FL Sister)
( look at herself in the mirror )
Lucinda Smith (FL Sister)
What's the use of looking like this if you can't be seen ? ....
Moly Smith (FL)
" Yes , so very beautiful ... "
Moly Smith (FL)
" No wonder Paul had never spared a glance for me from the moment i had introduced him to my sister ..... "
Moly Smith (FL)
( sit beside Lucinda )
Moly faced herself in the mirror and took a dispassionate assessment of her looks ....
A mouth the same size and shape as Lucinda's ....
yet lacking some indefinable thing that made all the difference to its appearance ....
But her eyes were widely spaced and honest ....
With a tender and kindness light in their soft brown depths that never seen in the eyes of her sister Lucinda .....
And Moly did have lovely hair ....
The colour of deepest honey , with tints of copper and gold , it fell in half waves on to her shoulders .....
No she isn't ordinary but beautiful , but by comparison to Lucinda she is ordinary ...
It was no wonder the boys passed Moly by when her beautiful sister happened to be around ....
Moly Smith (FL)
I still don't understand how you could give up on him ....
Moly Smith (FL)
He's still the same man , even though he's blind ....
Lucinda Smith (FL Sister)
( turned angrily )
Moly Smith (FL)
( stepped back , away from the mirror )
Lucinda Smith (FL Sister)
I had no intention of being tied to a blind man all my life , and that's all there is to it ! .....
Lucinda Smith (FL Sister)
Besides , there were his hands ...
Moly Smith (FL)
Were they badly burned ? ....
Moly said with difficulty ...
Lucinda Smith (FL Sister)
Terribly oh , they must be so hideous I've never seen them , because they were bandaged , but I can't bear to think about them ....
Lucinda Smith (FL Sister)
And I could never bear him to touch me ! .... ( disgusted )
Moly Smith (FL)
( Tears welled up in her eyes )
But she brushed them away before her sister could see ....
