At the dinner
table, Harold tapped Nate’s shoulder. “Mind if I sit here, Buddy?”
“Buddy?” Nate’s
startled face looked up, and then he stood, pushing the chair back as he did
so. “You feeling okay? Since when am I your buddy?”
“I guess I should
apologize for the way I’ve been treating you,” Harold muttered.
“Apologize? To
me? Did I hear you right?” Nate’s shocked expression disappeared as he looked
down at Mika, and then back at Harold. “I get it now. No problem, Buddy, she’s
already told me where I stand with her.”
Nate put his hand
on Harold’s shoulder and leaned close. “I wish you luck. She’s really a nice
person. I’m surprised it’s taken you this long to figure it out,” he whispered
in Harold’s ear before he moved away.
He looked at Nate
strangely. Nate was being civil and he didn’t have to be. It made Harold
ashamed of the way he’d treated him in the past. He was going to have to try to
rectify that. Maybe he’d misjudged Nate.
Harold nodded,
“Thanks,” he said.
“It’s nice
sitting next to Mika. You’re going to like it Uncle Harold. She always smells
good, and she’s funny, too,” Billy said.
“Why didn’t you
tell me sooner?” Harold smiled at Billy and winked at Mika.
Billy leaned
forward so he could see around Mika. Cupping his hand around the side of his
mouth, he whispered, “I thought you were mad at her. You always said mean
things to her.”
“I did, didn’t
I?”
Billy nodded. “Uh
huh.”
Harold leaned in
front of Mika, too. Lowering his head conspiratorially, he asked, “Do you think
she’ll forgive me?”
Billy looked up
at Mika. Mika nodded. “I think so,” Billy whispered.
“Should I ask her
now?” Another nod from Billy. Harold straightened up to a sitting position.
Taking Mika’s hand, he asked, “Can you forgive me for being so mean to you? I
promise to make it up to you.” Her hand felt so right in his, so he did what
was in his heart. He lifted it to his lips.
Mika gasped.
Apparently she hadn’t expected him to express his feelings so openly.
“I think you
scared her, Uncle Harold.”
“He didn’t scare
me, Billy, he surprised me.” She squeezed Harold’s fingers and smiled at him.
“I hope to continue
surprising you for a long time.” He was going to put his heart out there. He
had to let her know she was important to him.
