It
was
a
very
long
way
home
,
and
very
cold
.
Luke
had
cajoled
a
packet
of
sandwiches
and
a
bottle
of
champagne
out
of
old
Angus
MacQueen
,
and
when
they
were
nearly
two-thirds
of
the
way
home
he
stopped
the
car
.
Heaters
in
cars
were
extremely
rare
in
Australia
then
as
now
,
but
the
Rolls
was
equipped
with
a
heater
;
that
night
it
was
very
welcome
,
for
the
frost
lay
two
inches
thick
on
the
ground
.
"
Oh
,
is
n't
it
nice
to
sit
without
a
coat
on
a
night
like
this
?
"
Meggie
smiled
,
taking
the
little
silver
collapsible
cup
of
champagne
Luke
gave
her
,
and
biting
into
a
ham
sandwich
.
"
Yes
,
it
is
.
You
look
so
pretty
tonight
,
Meghann
.
"
What
was
it
about
the
color
of
her
eyes
?
Grey
was
n't
normally
a
color
he
cared
for
,
too
anemic
,
but
looking
at
her
grey
eyes
he
could
have
sworn
they
held
every
color
in
the
blue
end
of
the
spectrum
,
violet
and
indigo
and
the
sky
on
a
rich
clear
day
,
deep
mossy
green
,
a
hint
of
tawny
yellow
.
And
they
glowed
like
soft
,
half-opaque
jewels
,
framed
by
those
long
curling
lashes
which
glittered
as
if
they
had
been
dipped
in
gold
.
He
reached
out
and
delicately
brushed
his
finger
along
the
lashes
of
one
eye
,
then
solemnly
looked
down
at
its
tip
.
"
Why
,
Luke
!
What
's
the
matter
?
"
"
I
could
n't
resist
seeing
for
myself
that
you
do
n't
have
a
pot
of
gold
powder
on
your
dressing
table
.
Do
you
know
you
're
the
only
girl
I
've
ever
met
with
real
gold
on
her
eyelashes
?
"
"
Oh
!
"
She
touched
them
herself
,
looked
at
her
finger
,
laughed
.
"
So
I
have
!
It
does
n't
come
off
at
all
.
"
The
champagne
was
tickling
her
nose
and
fizzing
in
her
stomach
;
she
felt
wonderful
.
"
And
real
gold
eyebrows
that
have
the
same
shape
as
a
church
roof
,
and
the
most
beautiful
real
gold
hair
...
I
always
expect
it
to
be
hard
like
metal
,
yet
it
's
soft
and
fine
like
a
baby
's
...
And
skin
you
must
use
gold
powder
on
,
it
shines
so
...
And
the
most
beautiful
mouth
,
just
made
for
kissing
...
"
She
sat
staring
at
him
with
that
tender
pink
mouth
slightly
open
,
the
way
it
had
been
on
their
first
meeting
;
he
reached
out
and
took
the
empty
cup
from
her
.
