The Valley of the Moon

CHAPTER XV
12/15

Saxon, looking up at him, thrilled with pride in him, he was so well-dressed, so strong, so handsome, so clean-looking--her man-boy.

And she was aware of pride in herself, in her woman's desirableness that had won for her so wonderful a lover.
"Well, Bert an' Mary, here you are at Saxon's and my wedding supper.
We're just goin' to take all your good wishes to heart, we wish you the same back, and when we say it we mean more than you think we mean.

Saxon an' I believe in tit for tat.

So we're wishin' for the day when the table is turned clear around an' we're sittin' as guests at your weddin' supper.

And then, when you come to Sunday dinner, you can both stop Saturday night in the spare bedroom.
