eleven o'clock
In vain , on the first and second days , did Dick lay out his work , or defer it , so as to be ready for any suggestion from Paula to go for an afternoon swim or drive . He noted that she managed always to avoid the possibility of being kissed . From her sleeping porch she called good night to him across the wide patio . In the morning he prepared himself for her eleven o'clock greeting . Mr. Agar and Mr. Pitts , with important matters concerning the forthcoming ranch sale of stock still unsettled , Dick promptly cleared out at the stroke of eleven . Up she was , he knew , for he had heard her singing . As he waited , seated at his desk , for once he was idle .
