Ogling Dads
Thompson, her boyfriend, described their prom as oddly awkward. It was also weird that it was heavily accompanied compared to the years that passed. According to him, many people stood around talking in the center of the dance floor instead of dancing.
As if that wasn’t enough, things turned uncomfortable when they noticed the line of chaperones and dads that were ogling them. The unfazed lot were gawking at them right above their heads from the ballroom’s balcony. As expected, Clare and her friends, understandably, felt profoundly uneasy and violated.
