“Oh, this shop is delightful!” Mrs. Bennet cried. She followed behind Lydia and exclaimed over this ribbon or that lace. “And the caps!”

“Will you get one, Mama?” Kitty asked. “That one right there with the rosette. Would not that look divine on you?”

Yes, walking this street on the arm of Mr. Darcy would indeed be delightful. She made a note of where particular stores of interest were so she could mention them to him when next they spoke. It was not that she wished to purchase anything inside of them, it was just that the glimpse through an open door or window was enough to arouse her curiosity.

(Just a few words 😉  I had seen a chair on Pinterest just before writing tomorrow’s story excerpt.  It is the one I had in mind as I was writing. You can see that picture here if you are curious:   https://www.pinterest.ca/pin/89227636352488692/ )

She took a seat in the one chair that faced the door but was positioned in such a fashion that its occupant could share in the conversation at the hearth to their right or with Darcy while he sat at his desk on the left. It was a plush chair with a wide seat of creamy fabric decorated with flowers and vines.

She smoothed her skirt and looked up to see Darcy staring at her.

“Am I not supposed to sit here?” She made to move.

“No. Stay as you are. You are so charmingly arranged.”

“Fanny Gardiner had more ability to run an estate than the young ladies of my circle. She was not the most intellectual of the lot of ladies, but she knew how to manage things and,” he smiled at some imaginary object far in the distance, “she was prettier than any lady I had ever seen before or indeed have ever seen since. Save for my daughters, but then they all resemble their mother.”
