It was the first day of classes and Millicent, Eunice, Lovey and Margret were having dinner again.

"The first day seemed awfully dull, but I do like that all of us are in that English class together. I think our professor is very nice", said Lovey.

"She is very nice, but I see she has an engagement ring. I wonder when she is getting married?" asked Eunice.

"Well I hope it won't be until the end of the semester. I want to talk to her about teaching. I'm not sure if I want to teach college, prep school or at a school for younger children", replied Millicent.

Do you really think it is wise for someone with your money to have a career? When I marry I won't have a career!" declared Margret.

"Neither will I!" declared Lovey.

"Nor will I. I will be far too busy with charity work and then I'll have children, of course!", explained Eunice.

I think that's what we'll all do. I suppose Edward will ask me to marry him soon, although I do like Milburn."

"Oh, does Milburn like you?", asked Eunice.

"Yes, but he wants to be a president of a bank. A small bank, he's no J.P Morgan. Mother does think that marrying a small bank president is marrying beneath my status." Explained Margret.

"May I trust you girls to keep a secret?", asked Lovey.

"Oh, yes! I love to keep secrets!", exclaimed Eunice.

"Well, I don't like who I'm dating either. He's an Earl over in England, but mother says, that the Wentworth's deserve the best. I love Thurston Howell III and we are planning to elope."

"Oh how improper! I could never do that with, Milburn."

I think it's wonderful! I'm so glad my parents approve of Horace!"

"My parents also approve of my beau. I hope I become Mrs. Schuyler-Potts someday. I do want to keep my maiden name as well!"

"You are so modern! I would never do that!", exclaimed Margret.

"Well I will!"

"Horace is going to visit me this weekend. I'm so excited and would love to introduce him to you."

"Thurston is coming as well."

"I wish I could invite Milburn over, but if word got out…"

"Oh who cares about that, dear! Invite him for the weekend", said Lovey.

"No, but I will invite Edward to visit. He's so handsome but a dreadful bore."

"I don't think that William can come from California this weekend, but I'd love for you to meet him someday!"

"Oh this will be so much fun! Would you girls care to join me for an evening stroll?", asked Lovey.

The rest of the group spent the evening together in the park. It was as if they had become instant friends.
