CHAPTER ONE
He smiled and Flip smiled back, murmuring shyly, "I hope so."
Flip knew just enough German to answer, "Nein."
To this Flip was able to answer "Oui."
Flip nodded. "They were sent on with my trunk."
Jackie laughed. "That's silly."
Flip admitted, "I'm not very good. I fall over my feet."
Jackie looked at it longingly. "It's divine. It's absolutely divine."
Erna and Jackie chorussed, "Yes, Miss Tulip, thank you, Miss Tulip."
Gloria echoed Erna and Jackie. "Yes, Miss Tulip, thank you, Miss Tulip."
Erna and Jackie wandered over. "Hallo, what are you two talking about?"
Erna grinned. "What were you saying?"
Flip shook her head. "At home I'm called Flip."
Gloria began to giggle. "I know what! We can call her Pill!"
Flip shook her head. "No, thank you."
Flip smoothed out her bottom sheet and tucked it in. "Why not?"
CHAPTER TWO
Flip answered in a low voice. "Yes."
Jackie pointed at Flip. "And you?"
And Jackie asked again, "Where?"
Gloria wailed, "You're trying to confuse me."
Gloria stood up and stretched. "What's next?"
Gloria, still chewing, answered meekly. "Yes, Fräulein Hauser?"
Fräulein Hauser held out her hand. "Come here."
Flip nodded, then said, "Yes. He is."
Flip shook her head. "No."
She took his hand. "Who else would it be?"
She shook her head. "No. I hate it."
Flip shook her head. "Where would I get the salt?"
Finally Erna said, "For heaven's sake stop, Esmée. You've done enough."
Gloria jabbed again. "Oh, blow."
Erna took the needle from her. "Here, stupid. Let me do it."
Erna considered. "Well, let's see."
Flip actually grinned. "To me? What do you mean? Nothing."
Instead of answering Paul asked, "Would you like to see the chateau?"
CHAPTER THREE
Flip shook her head violently. "I'm all right. Just getting a cold."
Madame Perceval smiled. "Pick up your stitch," she said. "We can wait."
Flip shook her head and stared miserably up at Madame, "No, Madame."
Flip jerked erect on her stool. "How did you know!"
Flip's jaw dropped open. "But Madame!" she sputtered. "But Madame!"
She nodded, then added, "I want to be like them and like myself, too."
She could only ask, "But why, Paul? Why?"
CHAPTER FOUR
Flip gritted her teeth. "I'll learn."
Flip nodded. "Every morning."
Madame laughed. "She certainly will."
Then Erna's voice came. "Flip."
Flip opened the door and came out. "Thanks, Erna."
But Martha smiled in a friendly way and said, "Hi, Philippa."
And Martha said, "We came down to see if you'd do us."
CHAPTER FIVE
She shook her head again. "I haven't anything. What are you doing here?"
Paul returned, saying, "Thérèse says there wasn't anybody there."
Paul grinned rather shyly. "If you'd like me to."
Paul laughed, too, and then sighed, "I'm so glad you're here!"
And she asked, "Where are mother's clothes?"
After a moment Paul said, "Let me see the picture."
When they got to the gate house Paul said, "Don't tell my father."
But Paul shook his head again. "I know what I have to do."
Paul put his head down on his knees. "I won't let you do that."
CHAPTER SIX
Flip, her eyes shining, whispered, "More than anything."
Erna nodded. "You're _sure_ you won't tell anybody?"
Paul laughed. "All right. Go ahead."
Paul gave Flip a nudge. "I suppose you'll all be signing up for things."
Flip looked up at the older girl. "Yes, Kaatje."
But she knelt by Erna and said, "What happened?"
He nodded. "Looks like it to me. Lets go for a walk, Flip."
He held out his hand and she took it. "Yes, Paul."
