Lyndon paused, then nodded.


    “Can Ie with you?” she asked.


    “No, I need to be alone today.


    ”


    He wanted a moment of solitude with his beloved.


    Lyndon opened the door and disappeared into the wind and snow.


    Watching his retreating figure, Tilda clenched her fists.


    She thought bitterly, “Rosanna… how are you doing up there? Would you resent me for marrying Lyndon?”


    “Tilda, where is Lyndon going?” Elma asked after Lyndon had left.


    “He’s going to mourn an old friend,” Tilda replied, trying to push her thoughts aside.


    Elma nced at her, concern evident in her eyes.


    “Tilda, are you and Lyndon all right?”


    Tilda forced a smile.


    “We’re fine, Elma.


    I’m hungry.


    Can we have dinner now?”


    “Sure,” Elma agreed.


    “Let me help you,” Tilda offered, heading into the kitchen to assist with serving the dishes.


    Elma watched Tilda’s quiet demeanor and nced at Sheldon, who was ying outside.


    She wanted to say something but hesitated.


    “Tilda, when will you tell Lyndon about Sheldon’s true identity?”

    Elma was taken aback and asked anxiously, “Why?”


    Tilda lowered her eyes, speaking softly.


    “Because our marriage won’tst long.


    ”


    A loveless marriage couldn’t endure forever, so she preferred to keep things as they were, without making any changes.


    Elma watched Tilda’s slender back with a frown.


    How couldn’t their marriagest long?


    Tilda and Lyndon had a child together, and the three of them got along so well these days.


    However, it wasn’t right for them to sleep in separate rooms.
