Strangers in the Night Page #4

if Rosemary told you, that we...

I think it might be easier for

both of us if I tell you at once...

that Rosemary keeps no secrets from me.

She's told me everything

about your correspondence

I can't tell you how much

it meant me out there Mrs. Blake.

And to Rosemary.

I do not want to seem like a prying mother

but...

Would you tell me what it was about

Rosemary's letters

that made you think you were in love with

her.

Well, that's not easy to say.

It's the way she thinks.

How she looks at things.

- I just can't seem to put into words.

- I think I can understand.

Miss Miller told me

that Rosemary isn't here.

I'm so sorry about that

but it just couldn't be helped.

She'll be back in a few days. She'll

telephone.

I know how difficult it is going to be for

you.

Waiting.

Not at all. I imagine a few days in

Monteflores will be very restful.

Surely.

By the way, did Rosemary

sent you a picture of herself?

No, she didn't.

Well, I don't think that

was very nice of her.

She said, she didn't

have a good one.

I'm afraid she wasn't telling you

the entire truth.

She has a picture and

a very good one, too.

I'm going to show it to

you, after we had tea.

Yes, I'd like to see it very much.

Sit down, Johnny.

This is one time I don't mind

you eavesdropping at all

- I wasn't...

- You seem very nervous.

I've got one of my headaches.

I'm sorry. I wanted you

to do something for me.

Well, it's not too bad. What was it?

Johnny is going to see Rosemary's

picture for the first time.

Go to the living room, roll the shades!

Make the room as dark as you can.

- Right away?

- Yes, yes, yes.

- Hilda...

- Go ahead, Ivy.

- You can't go through with this.

- I won't have any interference.

I like that boy and Rosemary is going to

like him.

I won't let anything happen

to spoil his chances with her.

I want that completely understood.

- You wouldn't dare interfere. - I didn't

mean anything.

Go ahead, do as you were told.

Then leave us alone.

Go in, Johnny.

- Is she what you expected, Johnny?

- Yeah...

I've never imagined anything as lovely.

Except Rosemary.

Johnny!

Johnny!

Help, Ivy! Johnny!

Hello, Thompson! What's new?

Nothings ever new with people

they get the same

headaches year in and year out.

- Here, have some coffee.

- Thanks.

Tommy, why is that female doctor funny?

I'm a nurse, not a quiz show.

I only think it's only funny

when your not one yourself.

Yeah, like being sea sick.

- Tommy! - Better drink up and get on your

horse again!

- Who is it this time? - In every

town there is always one.

She thinks she is the Queen Mother

and Queen Father to boot.

This one my dear doctor, is called Mrs.
