When Margaret Leigh and Harry left the sideshow, he was two steps behind them. When they stopped to toss pennies into a bottle, he stopped with them. Margaret Leigh tried to lose him in the fun house, but he refused to be lost.It was obvious to Andrew that Harry Cox didn't know what was going on. Margaret Leigh was flirting shamelessly with him, rubbing her hand along the back of his neck and pressing herself against him in the crowd. The poor man had a dazed look on his face, as if he couldn't quite believe his unexpected fortune.Andrew bided his time. He wasn't at the carnival to kidnap Margaret Leigh again: he simply wanted to ensure that she stayed out of trouble. Guardian angel wasn't a role he was accustomed to playing, but it had its advantages. There was a certain solitude in being alone in a crowd. The noise served as an incubator for his thoughts, and he didn't have to share them with anyone. Also it was a great way to observe human nature.He felt as if he were in the back of a theater, watching men cavort and posture upon a stage.And nobody was playacting more than Margaret Leigh.
