Sarah had Nelson swing past Arlington Apartments after the Plaza, to fetch Libby. What is she wearing? Sarah thought as she came out. Could her hemline be any shorter? And what has she done with her hair? She must have gone out this morning as soon as I left, the little minx.

Libby climbed in the back. Sarah was hoping for a sign of contrition, but no, nothing.

“You’ve been with your stock lady friends,” Liberty said.

Sarah saw Nelson glance at her in the rearview mirror. “Saks,” she said to him, then slid the glass across so he couldn’t hear any more of the exchange.

“Have you been drinking?” Libby said. “It’s not even lunchtime.”

“Made a killing on RCA.”

“Well, good for you, Mama.”

“What you done with your hair?”

“Do you like it?”

“You should ask me first if you can wear your hair like that.”

“I’m sixteen years old, Mama.”

“That is what I am saying. You are only sixteen!”

“It’s a Dutch bob cut. All the girls at school have them.”

“At Westover they will let you wear your hair like this? Is this a kiss curl?”

“It’s the Louise Brooks pageboy look.”

“You are too young to have a look. When I was your age, I did not have any look.”

“You were never my age, Mama. Why are we going to Saks?”

“You must have something to wear for the Charlton party. Their eldest daughter is getting engaged.”

A sigh. “If we must.”
