Married Life Page #2
John O'Brien was
telling Newt Baum
that he thinks a woman
who does a lot for her man
can pay a heavy price.
What do you suppose
he meant?
Oh, it's all rather
uncomplicated, I'm sure.
He was drinking.
You know John.
What is the price
a good wife pays?
Tell me.
I don't know.
Let's skip it. You'll
upset your stomach.
No, go on.
I'd say he was
probably thinking that
if a married man
falls in love
with another woman,
the dedicated wife is
surprised and hurt.
And she remembers
him as he was.
Before they married,
and she sees him now,
as she made him.
A better-finished
product altogether.
is soon going to enjoy.
You've given this
a lot of thought.
I know you don't
love me anymore.
No.
I do love you.
Pat.
Pat.
Pat?
Pat! Pat?
Pat?
Thanks for coming
at this ungodly hour, Doc.
That's all
in a day's work.
I thought she was
having a heart attack.
Not a bad way to go,
coronary thrombosis.
If you ask me, it's the
Quick and easy.
But, no, she's fine.
The pain in her chest
is most likely caused
by an emotional
condition.
Are you aware of anything that
could disturb her emotionally?
Anything at all?
When it comes to the
opposite sex, most men are selfish.
Whereabouts
does she live, Harry?
Fairhaven.
I'm no exception.
and a decent job in town,
selling wallpaper.
I wanted Harry's girl.
That's near your weekend cabin.
Yeah, not far.
That's right.
You know, if you come by one
weekend to see us at the cabin,
you should stop by
and say hello to Kay.
Hmm.
There's not much for
her to do out there.
When I'm not around, she's just
curled up with a book by the fireplace.
She's a reader,
you know.
Hmm.
Is she?
I want you to get to know
her, the way you know Pat.
Oh, but she won't
want to see me.
I assure you,
she'd love to see you.
She'll have nothing to do
with someone like me, Harry.
You know how
honest-to-goodness women
run kicking
and screaming,
when they see me coming.
Well, stick with me,
my friend.
I'll make a good man out of you yet.
on business that I visited her first.
As a friend.
Or a friend of a friend.
These look wonderful.
Thank you.
Is this your father?
Yes, it is.
He died of cancer, the
day after Christmas, 1931.
Oh, I'm sorry.
He looks like a kind man.
He was a drunk, actually.
But he was kind,
at least to us kids.
Thank you.
You're welcome.
That's my late husband,
Ronald.
The men in my life don't
seem to live very long.
I'll warn Harry.
Please do.
Ronnie and I moved here
