      “You should definitely wear the red dress. Sexy.” “Sexy?” I mumble, confused. My best friend holds the dress up. “Red is notoriously romantic,” Cassidy explains. “Perfect for a date.” “Right,” I just nod and take the dress from her. Cassidy and I have been friends for twenty-something years, and no one probably knows me better. Which always makes what’s about to happen absolutely hilarious to me. It takes three seconds for her doe eyes to widen, two more seconds for her hand to fly to her mouth, and a fifth of a second for the horrified expression to take over her face. “Shit,” she starts to...U7bone door

Your burgundy tie was a bit askew as you fumbled with your briefcase because the eldwww.onedoor.ccerly woman next to you bumped into you with her zebra-print umbrella and carpetbag monstrosity.
