SUMMER STORMS CORNER By Ralph Blanchard a week It had been Ken sat on the porch of the resort hotel and looked over the lake in thunder doesn't it he He threw the newspaper at a fly on the Gail was sit- J pretty with a few I freckles over her nose and cheeks Just a no use letting it get she knowing inwardly that she was tired of this thing on your you'd be fed he thumping the heavy He had been In an accident two weeks Now that there was rain he was doubly by tomorrow I can take you for a ride In the Gail looks as though it might stop raining Ken kicked his good leg against the go by I'm not a Gail felt her face redden a was nervous and on The rain had been so bad for the last week that no one had done anything but play She turned her face from he Gail turned you know the doctor warned you about being on the What If you should have an not an undernourished school you She knew what he was thinking and you can take care of but it's better to be safe than you please shut Gall looked at He had never A wave nearly swamped the boat and be was thrown come right out and said that he loved but she knew that he And she understood It wasn't that he was angry at but it was the whole business of rain and a broken next morning the rain stopped THE for a Ken was up early and down by the lake walking along the shore with his He felt better than he had for several and when he came to a boat he decided that he would go out just a little ways from the With his he pushed the boat and laboriously placed himself between the two He heaved a sigh as he felt the boat move over the For a while he thought the sun was corning out from behind the but the sky grew As the boat sped through the it would snap at the After a few Ken realized that he gum I 11 a 11 lie luiu He looked up at the sky and saw that it was just on the verge of As he looked one of the oars slid down into the darkening water just out of The rain poured down as though someone had taken a knife and slashed the under side of the dark he took the other oar and used it Indian but the boat was much heavier than a and it was hard to lift the heavy The waves grew The shore was at least three-hundred yards probably and the to push the small boat further If only he had two his arms would not have been so In his mind he saw Gall sitting on the He wondered if he would ever see her His wrists ached and sharp pains shot his broken A wave nearly swamped the boat and he was thrown His head hit the side of the He was having a ugly Multicolored spots swam up and down before his A sickening hum rang loudly in his Suddenly the dots The hum stopped When he opened his he saw Gail blurred before his and he heard her all It's must have missed me and gone for he her voice faded As he closed his he knew she was Everything be He felt her soft hand on his He wasn't quit sure whether he was sleeping or awake but bt kissed her fingers as they caressed his lips |
