Willie feared that he might have a longish wait locked in the drawer. In Sharon's current condition, even with the help of a maid it would surely take her a considerable time to bathe, get dressed and see to her hair and make-up. Unless dream logic worked to his advantage for once, and it didn't take as long as by rights it should have.
When he guessed that about an hour had passed, he decided that he couldn't afford to wait for Sharon any longer, as it seemed that her dream wave wasn't wearing off. He mustered his meagre energy, hoping to find another dream-wave resistant woman who hadn't been affected as heavily as Sharon, and hoping to use her partial immunity to the dream as a place to teleport himself towards.
But before he could attempt to carry out his plan, he heard a key turning in the lock and the drawer was opened. Blinded by the sudden light after so long in darkness, he heard Sharon's voice before he could see anything more than a blur: "Willie, I'm sorry that I've been so long. After the maid had helped me to bathe, dress and see to my hair and make-up, I was all set to go to the dance without you, but then I remembered that all this isn't real. Yes, I'm myself again, in mind if not in body. We have to get out of here!"
"Thank goodness! If we're to have a chance of stopping this, we have to get to Jim as quickly as we can. I just hope that he really is to blame. We may not have long. Each dream wave seems stronger than the last, and to keep you in its thrall for longer. I fear that your resistance may be waning."
"I'm afraid that you might be right. I knew that I was never going to get anywhere fast in the amazing concoction of a ballgown that I had on, so I ordered the maid to help me to take it off and then told her to leave. She was puzzled, but she obeyed."
Willie's vision had almost returned to normal by now. He saw that Sharon's enormous form was clad in only a knee-length pair of pink bloomers and a nursing bra rather prettier than but otherwise similar to the one that she had been wearing before. Her hair was up in an elaborate style and she was heavily made up. She put him back in her cleavage.
