    Summary

    She played in her mother’s wardrobe. Rows of silks and furs strung up for her viewing pleasure. She wrapped herself in an ermine robe, pearls from her mother’s jewellery box strung around her neck and arms. She strutted, wobbling and falling in a pair of heels, her small feet stuffed into the toe, comically oversized for her.

    In the mirror of her mother‘s vanity she recognised that she looked foolish, nothing like her mother an emblem of glamour and polish, just a child in costume, but in those lonely days she felt pretty and that was something she’d never felt before. Not when her father had dressed her in black tie tuxedo for the family gala and her mother had beamed and pinched her cheek and called her “her little prince”.
