ladel and start taking that stuff off. the mirror continued. Reluctantly and still not fully realiz- ing why she was doing it, Ada reached for the box of tissues and started to work. When the task was completed she shot a quick glance at the trium- phant fiend who was responsible for it. Although she declined to admit it aloud she thought to herself. I do sort of like it better this way but still . .A . That will do, don't even think of it. But how did you . . .? Never mind I just knew and that's all there is to it. You're very sure of your- self aren't you? Why, with as difficult an assignment as you I can afford to be a bit boastful. We're really making progress. Next on the list comes personality. although right now yours should be pronounced poison- ality. if-X - 1, rw, A V., IQ 1 f ,,., n A f r f ' is K I A' ll Il ' 1 X, I f i 70 f f vi - k- J ' fm-jlw ,tj X w ,f fwfff fa Z B W' ,f I .I Q ff 5 fl WWW Wffffffff' N f KKK f W f,, A W, f EX xx yy f , x , ,.,, ,, 1 , , , 6 5 ffl? y J 'Ill W 5 4 V, 'lf' fp , CL' ld ,, 1 1 V fy Il ll a t ts tw ' V 1 Y Wifi?

That's the most sensible thing you've said so far. the voice continued. Oh it is. is it. and now maybe you're going to tell me I should actually run after the bus as she does. lane is a sweet girl and she doesn't run after buses. She just walks fast. It's her nylons that do all the run- ning. And Ada darling. the little mirror defiantly continued with a dis- tinct note of irony in its speech. do you remember last year when your brother in college bought a second- hand ieep and you went around say- ing it was everything from a helicopter to a jet-propelled rocket plane. I guess I didn't realize how silly it was then. Ada admitted humbly. And so the conversation went on. It was a wonderful evening. wonder- ful for everyone who took part in it but especially for Ada. and when it had ended and she had returned home. she thought to herself. She thought about a lot of things. about all that had hap- pened that evening. about the things that she had done, about the freckles on her nose. and then about her mir- ror. She looked at it now and won- dered, but then things like that iust don't happen. do they? 23
