I'm not asking that. That's the way they always do with old people to keep them satisfied. Just humor 'em. Ain't I the one with life before me ain't I, mama?" "O God, show me the way!" "If there was a chance, you think I'd be spoiling things for gramaw? But there ain't, mama not one." "I keep hoping if not before, then after the war. With the help of Mark Haas "
Goldmark twisted high in his collar, cupping her small bare elbow in his hand. "That's what I say, lovey; let's break. Come, mother Coblenz, let's step down on high society's corns." "Lester!" "You and Selene go down with the crowd, Lester. I want to take gramaw to rest for a while before we go home. The manager says we can have room fifty-six by the elevator for her to rest in."
They were soft cheeks, smooth with the pollen of youth, and hands still casing them, she moved another step toward the portièred door. "Mamma!" Mrs. Coblenz emerged immediately, finger up for silence, kissing her daughter on the little spray of cheek-curls. "Shh-h-h! Gramaw just had a terrible spell."
You can't get in there, I tell you no way you try to fix it after the way gramaw had to leave. Even before the war, Ray Letsky's father couldn't get back on business. There's nothing for her there even after she gets there. In thirty years do you think you can find those graves? Do you know the size of Siberia? No! But I got to pay I got to pay for gramaw's nonsense. But I won't.
I don't say it ain't all right to kid her along, but when it comes to to keeping me out of the the biggest thing that can happen to a girl when gramaw wouldn't know the difference if you keep showing her the bank-book it ain't right. That's what it ain't. It ain't right!"
"Why Selene that's gramaw's to go back " "You mean the bank-book's hers?" "That's gramaw's to go back home on. That's the money for me to take gramaw and her wreaths back home on." "There you go talking loony." "Selene!" "Well, I'd like to know what else you'd call it, kidding yourself along like that." "You " "All right.
"Harry, you go out in the kitchen and keep the things warm until gramaw comes out to dish up. Set the table with a cloth on, and run over to the delicatessen for a bit of cold cuts. He's a right smart help to me, Lilly. Not like some boys, too proud to help. And now now let me see why, it's two years since I met your mother downtown in St. Louis before I had any idea of coming here."
If I could only get her back where she could see for herself the graves is all she needs. All old people think of the grave. It's eating her eating her mind. Mark Haas is going to fix it for me after the war maybe before if he can. That's the only way poor gramaw can live or die happy, Selene.
They think only tailors and old-clothes men and ." "Selene!" "Well, they do. You you're all right, mama, as up to date as any of them, but how do you think a girl feels, with gramaw always harping right in front of everybody the way granpa was a revolutionist and was hustled off barefooted to Siberia like a tramp? And the way she was cooking black beans when my uncle died.
Wasn't it sweet for him to put it that way right off, ma. 'Mother Coblenz, he says." "He's a good boy, Selene. It'll be a proud day for me and gramaw. Gramaw mustn't miss none of it. He's a good boy and a fine family." "That's why, mamma, we got to to do it up right." "Lester knows, child, he's not marrying a rich girl." "A girl don't have to be rich to get married right."
