you're still dressed as a girl; but I'm certainly surprised, from the way you talked this morning, I thought you'd never wear a dress again."
"I never will, I replied, "But when I got to Aunt's I found that she had sent my clothes back here--so there was nothing else to do. This dress is Aunt's idea for she said the other wasn't right for afternoon.

"She's right, and I must say she has very good taste--that dress is most becoming to you."
"Well it won't be for long, I'm going right up and change,"
Mother cried, "Oh wait now Davy, there isn't enough time be- fore dinner and you don't want to keep us waiting."
However, despite her plea, I was about to go ahead when Sue stepped into the room and announced dinner. Seeing me, she ex- claimed, "Oh but you look nice Davy! I'm so glad you've decided to wear dresses. I thought this morning that I liked you better that way, and now that I see you in that pretty blue dress I'm surer than ever of it." I almost boiled over at that, but caught
myself in time and went into dinner with Mother.
Mother--an extremely intelligent and interesting person- talked very well, so before we had finished our soup she had divert- ed my mind from my clothes. When dinner was over she led me into the living room, and there again kept me so interested and amused that I didn't want to leave to resume my normal attire. So the evening passed and at bed time when I was undressing the thought occured to me that I had been dressed as a woman all day and had not been particularly uncomfortable--even the corset had been bear- able so long as I remained erect. "Well I know now that I'll never again feel so sorry for women, and the kind of clothes they wear," I thought as I got into bed.
When Mother woke me in the morning she suggested that I put on Aunt's clothes again; but I absolutely refused, and she didn't press the point. While dressing I was unable to find the suit that Aunt had said she sent over, and when I later asked Sue about it she said that it had never arrived. Then I realized that Aunt hadn't sent it at all, but had merely told me she had in order to keep me in her clothes--I was the victim of a plot, and I vowed I'd get even with her.
