I'd never tell her, of course; at least not while Dad and I continued to be such good friends. ... So I smiled, and Dad gave in without much of a fight. He said glumly, "I'll have to arrange it. Give me a couple of days. I guess at that you're good-looking enough to sit up there at the receptionist's desk. I'll have to move the gal who's there." "Take your time," I said happily. "I've got things to do." Dad, resigned to the inevitable, didn't risk waiting too long. Just a few mornings later I greeted Bill gaily as he got off the elevator and headed toward the inner offices. He stopped short. "Good heavens!" he exclaimed. "Are you slumming?" "Not me. I work here. I'm going to be the gal who keeps the pests away from the Brains inside. And whom did you wish to see?" Bill laughed. I watched with pleasure the tiny lines crinkling around his eyes and the way he threw back his head. Yes, it was going to be fun. Worth getting up at eight o'clock in the morning to get to the office on time. "It must feel strange to you, being up and dressed at this hour," he teased. I nodded. "Another thing — I'm worried. Until I catch on I'm liable to be doing all the wrong things. I — look, are you busy for lunch? You're the only one I know here. If I make any boners this morning maybe you could tell me about them and keep me from making a fool of myself during the afternoon. I think if I can get through just this first day I'll be all right — " I looked up at him seriously, and then my heart skipped a beat. Had I made a boner already, a boner of a more important kind, by my suggestion? He met my eyes almost sternly. He looked a little bothered. Why hadn't I waited? I ought to know better than to rush things. I opened my lips to say something that would give him a chance to refuse gracefully, but he nodded. "Wonderful," he said, with no expression at all in his voice. "Alberto's at twelve-thirty? That's the best time for me." It was too late to take back my words. The elevator had stopped again, and several people were coming toward us. I smiled, nodded briefly and office. Bill disappeared inside his of The next hour was miserable. I cursed the job, myself, and Bill a dozen times. What was I doing here, stupidly smiling, checking appointments, saying "Yes, Mr. So-and-so," to men I wouldn't have troubled to be polite to at a party? At one point I had half risen, ready to march into Dad's office and admit the whole thing had been a mistake, but just then Miss Tyson came out. I sat down again. Miss Tyson, I had learned — had made it my business to learn very quickly — was Bill's secretary. She was on her way to the ladies room, but she paused beside me, asking, "How's it going?" Without waiting for an answer, she said, "Before I forget— better check with me every time anyone shows up for an appointment with my boss. You know, Roberts. Whatever you do, check me before you send them in. He makes and breaks dates so fast I need two heads to keep up. Now he's breaking dates with McChesney, yet." She shook her head as if she couldn't believe it. "Who's McChesney?" I asked. "Ah, that you'll soon learn. He's merely the big man from our biggest account, is all. D.W. isn't going to like Mr. Roberts' breaking dates with McChesney, I can tell you." Still shaking her head, she drifted away. A stir of pleased excitement ran through me. I took back all the names I'd been calling myself. I'd done nothing wrong, made no mistake, if Bill had broken an appointment with an important client in order to have lunch with me. . . . I think the most important thing about that first lunch date was that Bill took it for granted that my asking for help with the job was merely a pretext. I had expected to have to put up a pretense of being genuinely worried about it, but to my secret delight it wasn't necessary. He bypassed all that with a couple of questions and made a few encouraging comments, and then, quite naturally and easily, we seemed to take up where we had left off at dinner the other night. "In other words," I told myself gleefully, "the time we spent together that night was so pleasant for him that he's taken it for granted I found it pleasant too, and want to repeat it." Inwardly, when I got back to my desk at the office, I was rubbing my hands in satisfaction. Not only had Bill's attitude been right — everything Ufoc4 tftfaufa FRED WARING with over Sixty Pennsylvanians now entertaining on TELEVISION Bringing to your home good music — Wholesome Fun Every Sunday Night Over C B S-T V Consult your paper for local time
