Before I could grasp anything, Harper grabbed Nan’s wine glass and splashed it at Nan’s dress, making everyone gasp.
Nan shot to her feet, her eyes red with unshed tears and her face flushed with embarrassment. Even my parents gasped; my mother let out a sad sigh as she saw Nan’s distraught and broken expression.
“She doesn’t deserve you. She doesn’t know you. She could never love you the way I love you,” Harper continued, pointing her red fingernail manicure at Nan’s face. I couldn’t exactly see Chester’s face because his back was turned towards me, but I knew he was looking at Nan, he was now seeing how upset she truly was and the fact that her dress was now stained, didn’t help matters.
Nan was standing to her feet, her body trembling. I knew she was about to make a run for it.
My mother tapped the table, getting my attention.
“Go to her,” she said softly.
I glanced between her and my father.
“Are you sure? I feel bad bailing on dinner,” I told her; this was an important celebration, and family had always come first to me.
As if reading my thoughts, my father nodded his head.
“Nan is family too,” he told me. “You should make sure she’s okay.”
He didn’t have to tell me twice; I stood up quickly and started towards their table while Nan was having an internal battle.
“You’ve crossed a line, Harper,” Chester said, his tone low and deadly; their voices got louder as I got nearer. I could see some of the security and management making their way through the restaurant as well, wondering what the commotion was all about and ready to de-escalate the situation.
“You can’t honestly say you don’t have feelings for me, Chester. I have always been there for you… I have always loved you. You can’t deny that we have history together.”
