The Dawn of a Dream
“She had enough time to stop at the Ladies Hall and see Belle before classes at the Model School. Last night she’d worried Belle would leave school without graduating—now she worried she’d been so forceful she’d alienated her.
A long shadow spread before her on the walkway. She looked up, surprised. “Good morning, Mr. Price. You’re out early. Are you going to town?”
He halted, eyes wide. “Miss . . . Mrs. . . . I had no idea you lived in this direction.”
She let the remark pass.
“...Town?” He ran his finger around his collar. “Yes. I must be on my way.” He tipped his hat and dashed past her, his boots thudding on the boardwalk.

When she arrived at the Ladies Hall, she straightened her shoulders and sailed through the front door as though she had every right to be there.MoreLess
