I agree.5-19-5? P.9 and Maria bet again and again. - again and again they lose. One ; by one, their followers .'drift away, until finally they are alone. The dinner party is dismal. Oh, Chuck and I'laria assure each other that this doesn't make any difference - they still love each other. But the enchantment is gone - they are back in a world of reality. How Pierre has his chance. He speaks.;to Maria gently, regretfully, of how important it is for a ballerina':;to focus com- pletely on her work ?╟÷ how difficult it would be to be married to a man who didn't understand that work, didn't fit in with her professional life. Chuck doesn't need anyone, to work on him - his own common sense is enough. What, actually, do they really have in common - he and Maria? By the night of Maria?╟╓s opening,, they are finished, these two. Unhappy about it - still in love - but finished. Chuck goos to the opening with the feeling that this is goodbye. But as he watches her dance, he can?╟╓t stand it. And as she finishes dancing, and listens to the applause', she knows that it is no longer enough. They rush to 'Ohch.other?╟≤ The magic that brought them together is like a fairy godmother. And that's what a fairy godmother is supposed to do - bring' people together. She's not supposed to hang around holding their hands for the. rest of their lives - where; they go from there is up to them. Magic or no magic, they're ?½oingAtoJ^lo Just what they planned-, Maria tells Chuck. Six months on the ranch, six months of ballet. But one thing is certain - he?╟╓s never .going to 'gamble again as long as he livesl If he does, it?╟╓s a sure thing that he'll lose. Be- cause finding each ot)ier hand falling in- love is all the. luck they're entitled to, is enough? for ono lifetime - who has a right to expect anything else? And from this we go into our finale.
