Cash,So you ought to get a formal invitation for it this week, but my sister Grace is debuting on the 23rd and I would really appreciate if you could come, if you don't already have a conflict. Grace is one of my favorite people in the world, but she can get really nervous around strangers, so this ball is going to be quite the ordeal for her. She'd probably be happier to debut at a book reading but of course that's not what's done. Anyway, I know you don't know her well but I'm sure it would mean the world to her to have another familiar face for the evening, and she did seem to get along with you so well during dinner (before the thing with my brother, anyway).
I know a debutante ball probably isn't your ideal evening but you do sort of owe me. Hope to see you there? If you can't then of course that's fine, and don't worry about it, but if you can.
