I dressed for the dance more carefully than I usua

I dressed for the dance more carefully than I usually did, excited to see Caleb and hoping to properly turn his head. Lizzie had offered to fix my hair, and I’d accepted. The woman was magical, creating a beautifully tall bun with the use of a sock tucked just right. I’d say it rivaled anything I’d seen in magazines.
When I descended the stairs, Mr. Tutheridge was there waiting for me. My heart skipped a beat at the sight of him in his gorgeously made suit. He’d shaved and had on an elegant ascot that enhanced his eyes.
“Mr. Tutheridge, you’re absolutely splendid this evening.”
“Why thank you, Miss Jayne. I will say the same to you. That’s quite a dress.”
“I’m glad it’s cooler,” I said. “Lizzie fixed my hair so nicely, I’d hate to overheat and have the whole thing tumble to the floor.”
“What do you mean?” He’d closed the front door behind him and now stood next to me at the top of the stairs.
“I shouldn’t tell you this,” I said, “because men aren’t supposed to be privy to our beauty secrets, but Lizzie’s put something in my hair to make it look bigger and thicker.”
“Whatever is it?”
I laughed at the expression on his face. “Only a sock.”
“Well, that’s a relief.”
