Harriet ran into a few acquaintances and, after downing five or six glasses of wine in quick succession, felt a bit dizzy. She found a quiet spot to get some fresh air.
A figure approached and handed her a glass of chilled juice. "You've had a busy day, Ms. Harriet," a calm voice said. "Playing the part of a bridesmaid and entertaining clients."
Harriet accepted the juice with a faint smile. "It's hardly entertaining clients. They're good friends, and it's our boss's wedding, so everyone's happy. A few drinks are inevitable."
"Please accept my apologies for anything that happened today," Chuck said.
Harriet's lips curved into a smile as she slowly shook her head. "There's no need. Under the circumstances, Chuck was a perfect gentleman."
"Is this your first time as a best man?"
"Is this your first time as a bridesmaid?"
They spoke at the same time, paused for a moment, and then looked at each other and smiled.
Harriet answered first. "Yes, it is."
Chuck leaned against the railing, his hands clasped. "It's my first time, too. I'm not very experienced."
"You were so composed," Harriet complimented him.
"You were quite impressive yourself," Chuck replied with a faint smile. Despite all the teasing from the crowd, Harriet had remained perfectly poised and graceful.
Harriet chuckled lightly. "When you work for our boss, this is a small affair."
Chuck's gaze was calm and steady. "Our president isn't so bad. At worst, he'll call me last minute to cover for him, and then disappear for a month."
Harriet looked at him and couldn't help but laugh, quickly turning away.
"Found a kindred spirit, have we?" Chuck asked.
Their eyes met, and they both shared a low laugh.
