“I drove them to the mall, announcing that everybody got one completely new outfit. Iris expressed doubts about accepting gifts, but I told her, “I love shopping for girls. You have to let me do this.” Allport’s mall isn’t much, but it has a couple of stores that appeal to the young set. Iris chose a longish denim skirt, a plain white top, and lace-up shoes. I’d have to work on her fashion sense. Seeing Pansy petting some glittery jeans on a table, I asked, “Do you like those?” She removed her hand. “We’re not allowed to wear pants.” “If you like the jeans, get them,” I said. “We can always exchange them if you decide you’d rather have something else.” Shifting through the pile, she chose a pair with rhinestones on the back pockets. “Are these okay?” I chuckled. “They are if you think they are.” It was probably wicked of me to undermine their parents’ rules, but I had a feeling it was Ben who’d made them up, and Ben was dead. If their mother was still living, she might accept that a pa...ir of jeans wouldn’t result in her middle daughter’s ruin.MoreLessShow More Show Less
