The champagne flutes sang when I walked in, thin glass notes under hotel chandeliers, and the envelope in my wife’s…

The envelope didn’t slide so much as skate—sleek across varnished mahogany, a blade finding ice. It made a sound rooms…

At a luxury party, my mother-in-law handed me a name badge. It read: “Housekeeper.” My husband laughed and said, “Food’s for family.” There was no chair for me at the table.
