"OK..." I said, really quite surprised. I figured that I wouldn't get an Easter dress this year, what with living in Dallas and all, but obviously I was wrong. "Are you sure?"
"I like buying you dresses," Joey told me. "Plus I set aside money for it."
Joey took me to the mall and deposited me in front of a short blue dress with a matching jacket.
"The jacket costs more than the dress by, like $20, so we won't get that part until it goes on clearance. But I want you to get this dress right here, go try it on."
I looked at the dress. It was shorter than I normally wore by, like....inches. "It looks short," I said.
"Not too short," he told me, and shooed me off to the fitting room.
I came out of the fitting room and Joey said, "I like it. We're buying it."
And that was that.
