"Why do you laugh, damsel? I seek to steal a smile from your lips, but you vanish in the blink of an eye!"

Matilda sat on the sofa, tears of laughter pouring down her cheeks.

"That was the funniest thing," she said.

"I wasn't trying to be funny, big sister" Tim retorted. "I'm trying to get your help."

Matilda suddenly became serious. "You're not joking?"

"Finally ..."

"Okay," she said. "Cut the Shakespeare. You want to ask herl to the movies, just say 'hello whatever her name is do you like musicals? Will you come for The Sound of Music on Friday night?"

"What if she says no?"

"Try Westerns and The Good the Bad and the Ugly."

"I mean, what if she doesn't want to go out with me?"

"You really like this one. So I have a future sister-in-law."

"Heck, I'm not going to marry her, I just want to go for a movie."

"You don't like her enough to marry her?"

"Sis, I'm in school. Now help me."

"I've already helped you. I told you, you want her to come for a movie, ask her to come for a movie. Who is at the door? Go get it!"

Matilda heard the door open, and then slam shut. She heard running footsteps and Tim was back in the living room, panting.

"She's at the door. She wants to me to go with her to the Jazz concert."

"And ..."

"And I got so flustered, I slammed the door on her."

Matilda strode to the front door and opened it. A redheaded girl stood on the step, blinking.

"So you are the damsel I've heard so much about. Fair maiden, fear not, your wooing hasn't gone amiss. Your knight shall escort you to your heart's desire."
