    Author Notes:

    Tardy “Alice the Matchmaker” challenge entry. [“weft” and “warp” are weaving terms,not sci fi]

    Alice had watched the girls, collecting information for future use.

    When she heard the door close behind the sisters, Alice began again to speak, “I have news…”

     

    As soon as the sisters had left the house and closed the door, Tina and Hannah had quietly opened the door just a small bit and now crouched at that crack, trying to hear the conversation.

    “Father’s going to be angry if he knows that you are listening,” Anna stated the obvious.

    “Who is that lady, Tina?” Kathleen asked.

    “Shhhh,” Hannah commanded.

    “But…”

    “Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh,” Tina hissed.

    Constance smugly explained, “She’s the matchmaker.”

    -0-

    Tina was shocked, excited, frightened – she was full of emotions that skittered through her brain and body and would not take hold.  In her mind, she had known that this day would come.  She had been 18 for many months.  Many girls in the village married even before they were 18.  She knew that she was without a dowry – her father would need to sell the farm to provide a dowry for all five of his daughters, and Tina, though the eldest, did not want that.  She knew that the matchmaker must work much harder to find a mate for a dowry-less girl.  Still, when Friend Alice had not visited when she was 17 or since she had turned 18, Tina had begun to worry.  She had remained certain, though, that fate would reveal her mate to the matchmaker.

    Her breathing became shallow, and she began to feel faint with the strain of hearing who fate had chosen for her.

    “Oh Tina, who will it be?” Hannah asked excitedly.

    “I don’t know.”

    “I think it is Robert.  He always smiles so nicely whenever he sees you.”

    “Robert?  He smiles at every pretty woman.”

    “Then Peter.”

    “He picks his teeth.”

    “William?”

    “Drools.”

    “Anthony?”

    “Huh!” Tina snorted. “He’s an old man.”

    “He’s 37.”

    “He just needs someone to raise his 9 children.”

    “What about….”

    “Shhhh. I can’t hear them.”

    -0-

     

    “My news is very very good, my friends.”

    She watched as the mother and father held their breath.

    “As you know, your daughters are very beautiful.”

    “Thank you,” Marie replied.

    “They are also healthy, intelligent, well-mannered and kind.”

    Alice waited for another acknowledgment, but soon realized that her audience was about to burst with anticipation.

    1. Gosh, how will Bette enter this picture?! Will farmer John marry off his dowry-less-and-left-behind daughter to a WOMAN in desperation? Will Bette pretend to be a man and marry Tina to “save her honor”? Can that happen? (Yes, if it is a Spumoni story – and she can make you believe every word of it. I still think of Bette’s wolf-in-laws’ visit to Weho. How ARE they doing? Tina’s wolf father also loved her the best of all his children, just like farmer John.)

    10. Great story. This should be very interesting to see how Bette will appear here. It sounds like this takes place in a very traditional time where two women being romantically involved is probably not even a concept. I can’t wait to see where you take this.

    11. Oooooooohhhhhhhhhhh you’re back with a story that has “Chapter 1” in the title… meaning there’ll be a chapter 2… and possibly tons of further chapters… yayyyyyyyyyyyy :-))))))) Okay, now I’ll start reading… So happy to see you back, Spumoni!

    16. OK… So where are we?!? I think I am lost in spumoni’s land of Ti… Bette?? Uhm so where’s Bette?? :-) so eager to read more! Thanks for this promising chapter / story. PPS
