A/N-This chapter comes from the show 'I do, I Don't', the show that introduces Reese Watson to us. Didn't it make you mad that here they was celebrating their 6 month anniversary when we didn't even see them meeting or what? So this is my little tale of that meeting.
I'm going to have this take place about a year and a half before that fateful dinner. I'm not sure if Julia and her late husband knew of mister Reese Watson and his late wife so if I'm wrong in writing it this way, I apologize.
Mister Reese Watson was sitting at the country club and in a well stuffed and fashionable chair for the musty country club. A waiter came by with a small glass of whiskey for mister Watson.
He was sitting back and thinking about his coming to Atlanta. He had come from Montgomery, Alabama about a year ago after his wife had passed. Mary Alice.
She was a little woman, almost bird like and she loved to shop! She loved it so much that you could say she was a professional shopper, whatever that was.
So Reese didn't think there would ever be another woman in his life like little quiet Mary Alice. That is…
Reese had just put the whiskey down his throat when he heard a loud crash coming from the other room and a shrill scream and he got up to go running to see was it was and when he got there he saw a young waiter on his knees picking up ice cubes and there was a young woman in her late 20's, early 30's with coal black hair with a look of shock and anger on her face, mixed with a bit of embarrassment and she screams,
"Get me a lawyer! I'm going to sue!"
Just then he hears a sharp 'Suzanne!' and he turns his head slightly to the right and he sees a woman of in her 40's making a beeline for the woman and she says,
"You don't see over a obvious accident!, it's not even that noticeable! Just calm down, wipe it off and go take the dress to the dry cleaners in the morning!"
Suzanne looks down and picks the dress up and shows it to her sister. A tiny stream of champagne running down the skirt line and she screams,
"Not that noticeable! It's huge! The Atlantic ocean is smaller!"
Julia rolls her eyes then goes to the waiter and sees that he has picked everything up then assures him his job is okay then shoos him off to the kitchen and Julia turns around and grabs her overwrought sister by the arm and says,
"Let's go Suzanne" "Where to?" "The bathroom so I can show you that this isn't a disaster! Atlanta won't burn down because of this! Life does go on!"
Suzanne pouts like a little child and lets her older sister take her into the bathroom and all the while, Reese stands there with his mouth a slight ajar.
He just turns and goes and sits down all filled with thoughts of Julia and her hellfire ways.
Out loud, he says to himself,
"Whoo, I got to meet that woman"
