"Tell me about yourself Al", she countered, "What is San Francisco like? I have not been there for years. I understand the shopping is won- derful."

The conversational burden was thus removed from her pretty shoul- ders. For the next several minutes Al talked about his work, his hobbies, and his experiences.

When the others returned to the table, Harriet accepted Al's challenge to dance with her. Dancing had been part of the school's activity and Harriet had participated and was good at it, but this was the first time that she would be dancing outside of a classroom situation. The dancing itself was no problem as she had a natural rhythm and was light on her feet. She felt strangely uncomfortable though, as Al held her closely and she could feel the press of her breasts against his chest and the feel of her body against his as he held her tightly at the slim waist. The pressure of his cheek against hers and the feel of her gloved hand resting in his were not reassuring. She was most grateful to return to the others when the music had ended and Liz noted that she was somewhat flushed.

The balance of the evening was most pleasant as the men were good company and all had a good sense of humor. Just before leaving, Mary asked if anyone would like to join her in the powder room and noticing that Liz was going to do so, Harriet quickly joined them not wanting to be left alone with the men again. The three women departed for the no mans land known as the "Powder Room“.

The necessary duties were completed and the makeup supplemented so that each could look her best. Harriet no longer felt uncomfortable in the various powder rooms whether alone or with others.

"How are you enjoying yourself, Harriet, Mary inquired.

"Very much-except that I don't think that I will do this again. You two know what I mean. I feel uncomfortable dancing with a man who looks at me in a way that is normal for a man to look and I don't want any problems" she replied.

"I know what you mean dear." Liz commented, "I have a similar problem since Jerry does not know that I am married, but just consider yourself a woman and realize that the evening will soon be over. Just act out the part and let it go with a goodnight kiss at the door when we get home tonight. I see no real harm to you, me or the fellow." Liz answered.
