And she had liked him the way she liked old Bamon the shoemaker and Manuel who took her sailing and all of her Provincetown friends. . . . Babbie ! Look at me, Babbie. She couldnt look at him then.

It was the way Bruce had looked at her the day he came back to Provincetown last June. Youre growing up. Babbie, Bruce had said and somehow the look in his smiling blue eyes had made her feel happy and shy. Babbie, dear . . His voice sounded sorry about something.

That was why she wanted to cry, sometimes, and was always imagining things. Bruce had guessed. He must have known it all along, when he was teasing her and telling her things about her eyes.

Children had built it, they thought. They had smiled at It as they "walked up the beach. Now it seemed a safe haven, a refuge from the storm. They made it after a struggle, dropped, breathless and panting, on the sand the flimsy roof of pine beneath 33 branches. It was a refuge of sorts. In the , !
