O. Henry 
Springtime À La Carte 

Spring was taking its time to arrive in the city, and with no letter from her fiance in weeks, Sarah's quite wilted. ‘In a faint, golden glow from her dandeleonine dream, she fingered the typewriter keys absently for a little while, with her mind and heart in the meadow lane with her young farmer.’
Sarah was crying over her bill of fare.
Think of a New York girl shedding tears on the menu card!..
O. Henry's short stories are well known for their wit, wordplay, warm characterization and clever twist endings.
