Of course I have other reasons for denying it than merely that you're just one person. The only thing I would ask you for is whether you've seen something before on the dance floor of the ballrooms you sit on the sidelines of. Not that I judge your choice of employment — in fact, I envy you, being able to earn money doing something debutantes are expected to know but never make use of.

That aside. No. I will reschedule the appointment tentatively for next month, if the modiste will allow it. Hopefully it is allowed, considering these inconceivable circumstances.

Sincerely,

Gigi
