Boys and girls together,

Me and Mamie O’Rourke,

Tripped the light fantastic

On the sidewalks of New York.

“They danced, the singer and his sweetheart, on the sidewalks of New York. Just picture that.”

I’ve never been to New York. In fact, I am totally lost and starting to worry about Mr. Caliberti.

He’s not through yet. “So, young miss, when I say that Terpsichore trips the light fantastic, am I honestly saying she dances? Or, more elegantly, that she is light-footed and graceful in her lissome movements?”

Yep, I’m pretty sure Mr. Caliberti has a few screws loose in his head. I think they call it dementia, when old people stop making sense. And dementia sounds like demented! Is he trying to tell me that Sadie was demented, in the same way that Emily was crazy, and that I’m going to end up like them because there’s something sinister in our house that turns nice girls into lunatics? Now I’m terrified! I have to get out of here. As soon as I stand up, Terpsichore leads the way to the door. She wants me out of here, too. Why does Mr. Caliberti’s cat hate me?
