Suddenly I was angry, furiously angry. I said through clenched teeth, "I don't care about the work. Can't you forget it for a minute? I'm talking about you and me, about our marriage. I thought you wanted what I want, a home, a family, a wife." "We'll have all that. All that and more, Maggie. Later, when this thing is finished." "Later?" I shivered a little. "Maybe you won't like my saying this, Jim, but it's what I've come to believe. I don't think anyone alive can afford to wait until later for anything. You may have to wait through circumstances you can't control, or you may have to give up wanting whatever it is you want. But if there's something you want and you can have it — have it now — you dare not wait." Jim looked at me gravely. "Have you been brooding about this, Maggie? Are you frightened, worried about something? Because if you have been, and you haven't said anything — " "Of course I haven't been brooding! I didn't know there was anything to worry about. I took it for granted we hadn't talked about a house because — well, we've both been so busy." "I can bear anything, even quarreling, but I cannot bear it if you keep things to yourself," Jim said doggedly. "Letting a trivial grievance fester in silence, instead of dragging it out into the light and going at it until it's settled. Bringing it out years later to use as a weapon — I've had too much of that sort of thing. I can't face any more — " The remnants of my anger were swept away on a tide of compassion and love so fierce that I had to wait, before I spoke, to steady my voice. I couldn't recall Jim ever before making so revealing a reference to his life with Carol. I must be careful, be sure that what I said was what I really felt. I mustn't fight Jim just for the triumph of winning. Carol had done that; so many women, I knew, did that, and thought themselves successful wives because they found that after a few years of such contests their husbands gave up arguing. That was not for Jim and me, not now or ever. For us I wanted a hand-in-hand approach to any problems that came up, and the understanding that we would be strong enough to bring to these problems only if we learned the trick of meeting them as one person. This -wasn't the time to put my thoughts into words, and yet I think something of what was going on in my mind got through to Jim even without words. All I said was, "I want your happiness, Jim. I will have no grievances whether we live in your way or in my way, so long as it's the right way for you. If we can't have a real home right now, I don't deny that I'll still want one — and if you think it best that I don't stop working, I can't pretend I'll be perfectly content. But the one important thing will be that we're living in the way that's best for you. I trust you, and I love you." Without warning, I felt the hot sting of tears behind my eyes. Quickly I put my hand over them. I couldn't break down till I finished what I had to say. "I'm not a managing woman, Jim. I don't want to be. I want you to make the decisions and sort of — sort of do the steering. I'll go along." "Maggie," Jim said. He reached over and started to take the hand that was covering my eyes, but apparently he realized then that it was there for a CONGRATULATIONS TO THE WINNERS!
