At 20 a birthday should be an event, a celebration. For Susan it seemed neither this year. When Ben telephoned she told him she was busy. She had not seen him since the eventful night of the house party. Quite unreasonably she blamed Ben In her heart. If he had not been there, she would think,, perhaps things might have been different. Susan went to movies with Rose, washed her hair, and darned her stockings with beautiful, Invisible stitches. She borrowed books from the library und read them with her mind far away. Everything seemed empty and futile. Some days the easiest ones passed In a sort of gray haze when she felt nothing at all. There were other times when the turn of a head, a mans voice calling to another across a restaurant or a phrase leaping at her from the pages of a book awoke her to something like agony. She wondered why people said the young were happy. They certainly weren't. At least she wasnt. She kept reaching out and striving for things she could never have. It wonld be better to be like Ray, who accepted everything at Its face value. Over their cafeteria luncheon Susan happened to mention the fact that the day was her birthday. Ray widened her eyes. What did the boy My eye! friend give you? Susan smiled. Haven't any boy friend." Ray looked shrewd, "Expect me - THE EARL IS COMING BACK that?" to believe Susan alldwed herself a tiny You can believe It or not, shrug. Just as you like. It's true."
