La Cr Helen 70 "It would be wonderful," sighed. "Will be," Gil urged. "No." Helen shook her head. "You must give me time, Gil. Time to see, time to work this out so I can be sure." "But you've had time. What of these weeks when I've been longing to hold you, to have you as my own?" "I know," Helen said, "Oh Gil, can you wait a little longer? Until — " She snatched a date at random from the future. "Until the end of January?" Gil's face was dark with protest. "But this is only the end of September." "Just four months," Helen pleaded. "And will you marry me then?" "I will tell you then," Helen said. It was little enough, actually. Gil wondered why he was accepting such an intangible promise, a gossamer thread of hope. Four more months to wait just to learn whether she would ever be his bride. If only she would promise now definitely to marry him at the end of the 'time she set. Yet he knew without asking that this was the most she could give him. Somehow, when he kissed her goodnight, it was more a kiss of farewell. He wondered if Helen too shared this feeling of finality. HELEN plunged blindly into her work at the shop, as if it could wipe out the memory of that night with Gil. The three special gowns designed to prove to the public that Helen Trent, Inc., still had the benefit of her imagination and ability were a big success. Sightseers and visitors to Hollywood flocked into the shop to take home a Helen Trent original. But still Verlaine was not satisfied. "Visitors are all right," she said. "They buy, sure, but they're not steady trade. In a week or a month they'll all be gone, and nobody else to take their place. We still need the steadies, like we used to have, to fall back on when they're gone." Helen agreed. The shop had shown a profit for the past month — a nice profit, and yet, when Drew's bills came in from the sanitarium Helen wasn't able to meet them out of her income. She had to dig into her savings to cover the bills and the expenses at Trenthony, too. October and November were even worse. The profit fell off a little, despite all the work Verlaine and Helen and the staff could do. Helen dug still deeper into her savings, and after it was over, looking at her bank book, she knew a moment of panic. She couldn't stand this constant drain. But, she thought, the Christmas season is really just starting. Things are bound to pick up then. Christmas came and went. The shop did pick up, but nothing like Helen's expectations. On Christmas Eve, after the rush had abated, she and Verlaine sat in the littered packing room, looking around at the confusion. "Well," Verlaine said. "It's all over now but the returns. The next three weeks will cost us money." Her frown deepened into a look of anger. "If I could just get my hands on that spalpeen, Herbert Tracy, I'd make his ears ring!" In spite of her tiredness and disappointment, Helen had to smile. "I'll warrant you would, too!" she said. "While you were at it, I'd say a few words to him myself." "It'll take us a few months to get over the bad reputation that be RADIO AND TELEVISION MIRROR
