In the Name of Love
"Haha, exactly. Are you feeling a little inferior now that you know Rosa won the Best Actress award?"
I took a deep breath, swallowing my humiliation and pain, then went to cut the cake for Rosa and pour the wine.
"Since I was late and spoiled everyone's mood, I'll punish myself with three glasses of wine."
I tilted my head back and drained a glass of red wine, hoping it would please Byron and get him off my back, so I could finally leave.
"Byron, can I go now?"
Byron didn't answer, but I felt a hand slide up my waist. I stumbled, and the wine glass slipped from my hand, spilling across the floor.
