Yet
one
thing
marred
her
happiness
;
Ralph
had
n't
seen
.
So
her
mouth
remained
closed
upon
her
secret
.
If
he
could
n't
see
it
for
himself
,
why
should
she
tell
him
?
What
had
he
ever
done
,
to
earn
the
telling
?
That
he
could
think
for
a
moment
she
had
gone
back
to
Luke
willingly
was
the
last
straw
.
He
did
n't
deserve
to
be
told
,
if
he
could
think
that
of
her
.
Sometimes
she
felt
Fee
's
pale
,
ironic
eyes
upon
her
,
and
she
would
stare
back
,
unperturbed
.
Fee
understood
,
she
really
did
.
Understood
the
half-hate
,
the
resentment
,
the
desire
to
pay
back
the
lonely
years
.
Off
chasing
rainbows
,
that
was
Ralph
de
Bricassart
;
and
why
should
she
gift
him
with
the
most
exquisite
rainbow
of
all
,
his
son
?
Let
him
be
deprived
.
Let
him
suffer
,
never
knowing
he
suffered
.
The
phone
rang
its
Drogheda
code
;
Meggie
listened
idly
,
then
realizing
her
mother
must
be
elsewhere
,
she
got
up
reluctantly
and
went
to
answer
it
.
"
Mrs.
Fiona
Cleary
,
please
,
"
said
a
man
's
voice
.
When
Meggie
called
her
name
,
Fee
returned
to
take
the
receiver
.
"
Fiona
Cleary
speaking
,
"
she
said
,
and
as
she
stood
listening
the
color
faded
gradually
from
her
face
,
making
it
look
as
it
had
looked
in
the
days
after
Paddy
and
Stu
died
;
tiny
and
vulnerable
.
"
Thank
you
,
"
she
said
,
and
hung
up
.
"
What
is
it
,
Mum
?
"
"
Frank
's
been
released
.
He
's
coming
up
on
the
night
mail
this
afternoon
.
"
She
looked
at
her
watch
.
"
I
must
leave
soon
;
it
's
after
two
.
"
"
Let
me
come
with
you
,
"
Meggie
offered
,
so
filled
with
her
own
happiness
she
could
n't
bear
to
see
her
mother
disappointed
;
she
sensed
that
this
meeting
could
n't
be
pure
joy
for
Fee
.
"
No
,
Meggie
,
I
'll
be
all
right
.
You
take
care
of
things
here
,
and
hold
dinner
until
I
get
back
.
"
