“It’s perfect for  39  ,” my mother continued. “I  40  someone had made a dress like this for me.”

    41  you can’t wear it, I thought. But I knew Mom had spent a lot of time on the dress. Only the world’s most  42  daughter would refuse. reluctantly(不情愿的). I put it on.

   All through church I prayed, Lord, let me get out of here __43  anyone seeing me. Especially Dennis Pearce, the boy I had a crush on. He was one of the cutest (bright) guys at Neptune High. Although we were in some of the same classes, Dennis had  44  taken any notice of me.

   At the end of the service I  45  for the door. But I had to wait on the  46  while my parents chatted with their friends. Just a little while longer… Then  47  the corner of my eye I saw the Peace approaching.   48  I could escape, Dennis was right beside me.

   I started gabbing a mile a minute, hoping if I kept it  49  he wouldn’t notice my horrible dress. “I am going to college in September,” I said.

   “That’s great,” Dennis replied. “I got  50  to the police academy.”

   “Wow!” I said.  Somehow I kept the conversation going. Soon we were walking to the parking lot together. The next thing I knew Dennis had first asked me  51  .

   We courted through college, and eventually got married. Months after our wedding I asked Dennis if he remembered the day  52  he had first asked me out.

   “_ 53  bet I do,” he said. “You were always  54  in school, almost standoffish (coldhearted). I didn’t think you’d be much fun. But you were so animated (lively) when we talked on the church steps, I wanted to get to know you better.” Maybe that  55  yellow dress wasn’t what I would have chosen, but that day it was the perfect dress for me.
