Alice rarely got to go to balls like this anymore. And really, she knew this wasn’t the usually Halloween ball that went on, but even this she didn’t get to do much. She’d given up this lifestyle when she’d chose the path she had. Of course, she had no regrets, even if she did miss getting to dress up like this. She wouldn’t change any of her decisions though. Alice loved her life, her job, and her little family. If anything, getting to come to these kind of things with Frank, just made it all the better.
She turned to her husband, and smiled up at him. “You look good dear....” She felt pretty too. Of course, she knew that it was an old dress, and that her parents, who were probably here, would know it was old, but she didn’t care. She’d rather buy her little boy a new toy than spend on a dress she’d only wear once.
She looked around the ball, and smiled. “I didn’t realise how much I missed these kind of things....”
