Eva loved date night, loved having the time with Michael that they carved out of their schedules at least once a month. Most of the rest of the time was devoted to school and Jimmy, but date night was theirs.
She finished doing her hair and touched up her lipstick before turning to leave her bathroom to go say goodbye to Jimmy before she left.
The ballroom was distinctly not her bedroom.
She stepped backward and, when that didn't work, blinked hard. Then she pinched herself, maybe hard enough to bruise.
Still there.
At least the man nearby looked as confused as she felt. Disgruntled, but confused.
