Marriage liberated Teresa. Ever since she came to Kansas, no matter where she lived, she always feared that, like Albert, she would be told to leave. Counting orphanages, she’d lived in a dozen places, but until she married Jess, she never had a home. Marriage provided her with security. It felt like paradise.

But Jess kept telling her what to do. One night at supper he told her to wear no lipstick.

No lipstick! He must be joking. Whoever heard of such a thing?

The next day, she put on just a little lipstick, and he didn’t notice. So the following day, she put on a little more, surprised at how the action exhilarated her, and the next day, still a little more, expecting to get caught, but Jess said nothing. On the fourth day, she became prudent. She knew her days of lavish makeup were history.
