[Rilla of Ingleside by Lucy Maud Montgomery]@TWC D-Link bookRilla of Ingleside CHAPTER IV 25/38
But how awkward Mark Warren was! How he bungled his steps! Why, for mercy's sake, did boys try to dance who didn't know the first thing about dancing; and who had feet as big as boats? There, he had bumped her into somebody! She would never dance with him again! She danced with others, though the zest was gone out of the performance and she had begun to realize that her slippers hurt her badly.
Kenneth seemed to have gone--at least nothing was to be seen of him.
Her first party was spoiled, though it had seemed so beautiful at one time.
Her head ached--her toes burned.
And worse was yet to come.
