I was wrong. I was so, incredibly, horribly wrong. Not only did that night get worse, it went terrible. I wish it had never happened. Hell, I was crying my eyes out into my pillow, that's how awful it went. But, let me recap just how badly that night went.
*Flashback*
Oh. My. God. Harry has been the biggest prick since I took their orders. Oh excuse me but my steak is still a little raw. Uh my steak is too dry. Can I have some more wine? I dropped my fork on the ground. I need a new napkin. My date needs a new napkin blah blah blah blah blah blah blah. GOD, KILL ME NOW. I was on my way back to their table to bring him another plate because somehow his ended up on the floor again. I had a swifter mop and a dustpan too since his food was dumped on the floor too. It's been three hours since we started and I haven't even gotten a chance to eat yet. My stomach growled as if to agree with me. I plastered on a smile as I got to their table and handed Harry the new plate.
"Here you go, sir. And a new bottle of wine, compliments of the chef." My dad had told me to give them this fresh bottle as a sign of peace after I complained for the fifteenth time while he was picking up a new plate for one of his tables. I turned and started walking away briskly hoping that they wouldn't ask for anything else but, I was wrong.
"Wait a minute, Rae. We need some different wine glasses since you gave us red wine." he smirked at me. I looked at the glasses they had on the table and mentally choked myself for not realizing that they already had glasses of white wine.
"Yeah and make it quick. We're tired of waiting for you." snapped the strappy little blonde next to him. She looked me up and down with a look of disgust as if she was better than me. That did it. I slammed my hands down on the table as hard as I could.
"ENOUGH. FINISH YOUR DAMN WINE AND USE THE SAME DAMN GLASSES." I screamed in her face. Then, turning to Harry I said, "I have been serving you and all your needs all night. I am tired and hungry and now I'm pissed off. So if you would, how about you and your little slut over here, leave me the hell alone for the rest of the night." I swear I must have looked like a crazy person with my hair falling out of the bun I had it in. I could feel my cheeks burning up.
"BITCH! YOU DID NOT JUST CALL ME A SLUT!" screeched blondie. She leapt at me from across the table and tackled me to the ground. Before she could lay a punch on me I kicked her off of me.
"Oh piss off! If you're here with him then-" but before I could finish she was up again and shoved me up against the wall. Frustrated and screaming we started brawling full on all over the place. I threw her against the bar and punched her perky little face right in the eye sending her into another table. Suddenly we were at each other's throats again but just as suddenly two strong arms in between us trying to pry us apart. We were ripped apart suddenly and I saw that Harry was holding on tightly onto blondie. I stumbled backwards a bit and all of a sudden completely lost my balance when I stepped on something. I was sent flying into the barrels of rum that were behind me. One of the cases busted open and in seconds I was soaked in a red alcohol.
"NO!" I screeched as I scrambled away from the barrels and watched the liquid pour out. I stared down at my dress in horror and looked up at my dad as he came running out.
"What's going on here?!" He exclaimed. I stared at him with horror and grief in my eyes and saw that his own eyes were a mixture of emotions. Maiko was at my side pulling me up and saying something to me I couldn't hear. I couldn't hear anything anyone was saying anymore, the world was spinning and tears were falling traitorously out of my eyes. "Clean this up!" I heard my dad bark at someone behind us.
"My dress...Mom's dress." I stuttered out as we stumbled into my room. I ran to the mirror praying that the damage wasn't as bad as what I thought I saw in the restaurant.
"Rae..." whispered Maiko. I could hear something in her voice but I was too upset to interpret it as I stared at the horrific image reflected in the mirror. I was shocked, no, mortified by what I saw. The dress was soaked completely in rum, completely red now instead of the beautiful ivory color it was earlier. Part of the cape was hanging on the floor and when I turned I saw that it was torn to pieces.
"No..." I groaned as I sank to the floor. "No, no, no, no, no. Oh God no. Please." I begged. I didn't know who I was begging or what I was hoping for but I was bawling my eyes out. I could feel my body rocking back and forth and my arms gripping myself. I could feel Maiko trying to pull me up again. "NO! Just leave me alone!" I yelled.
"Come on girl. Let's get you out of these clothes." She said quietly as she unzipped the dress and slipped it off of me. Still crying, I let her undress me. She handed me some pajamas to change into and wrapped my hair in a towel. With another towel she started wiping off my face and my arms. I weakly took off my shoes and tossed them across the room. "Just get some sleep girl. I'm gonna go downstairs and check on everything okay?"
She left the room leaving me to collapse onto my bed and cry.
