CHAPTER XIV . A PRODIGAL RETURNS Aunt Olivia and the Story Girl lived in a whirlwind of dressmaking after that , and enjoyed it hugely . Cecily and Felicity also had to have new dresses for the great event , and they talked of little else for a fortnight . Cecily declared that she hated to go to sleep because she was sure to dream that she was at Aunt Olivia 's wedding in her old faded gingham dress and a ragged apron . `` And no shoes or stockings , '' she added , `` and I ca n't move , and everyone walks past and looks at my feet . '' `` That 's only in a dream , '' mourned Sara Ray , `` but I may have to wear my last summer 's white dress to the wedding . It 's too short , but ma says it 's plenty good for this summer . I 'll be so mortified if I have to wear it . '' `` I 'd rather not go at all than wear a dress that was n't nice , '' said Felicity pleasantly . `` I 'd go to the wedding if I had to go in my school dress , '' cried Sara Ray . `` I 've never been to anything . I would n't miss it for the world . '' `` My Aunt Jane always said that if you were neat and tidy it did n't matter whether you were dressed fine or not , '' said Peter . `` I 'm sick and tired of hearing about your Aunt Jane , '' said Felicity crossly . Peter looked grieved but held his peace . Felicity was very hard on him that spring , but his loyalty never wavered . Everything she said or did was right in Peter 's eyes . `` It 's all very well to be neat and tidy , '' said Sara Ray , `` but I like a little style too . '' `` I think you 'll find your mother will get you a new dress after all , '' comforted Cecily . `` Anyway , nobody will notice you because everyone will be looking at the bride .
