Their housing was in a building on the water's edge. -the mere fact that "tomorrow" was Sunday, and her husband absent on military duty, led her to spend that night with friends. -On Sunday their (a hotel? An apartment? -I must ask) was totally demolished, with many deaths, by the Japanese attack. Hyer husband was somewhere in the confusion, his status not known for (I don't know how long; a day or two? it is quite silly of me to narrate so incompletely, when another visit to Mrs. N. will clear many questions). -He learns of the destruction of their, so his state of mind may be barely imagined. -They finally got together. Due to the confusion it was a month before Mrs. N. received happy assurance from them.
