girl, have you been
watching those soap operas with your grandmother again? What
possessed you to lie?” Jackson said with a disgusted
tone.
    “ Well, son, if watching
soap operas made Shelby do this then you must have been watching
porn right before you selected your wife. Jackson, I am tired of
watching you dismiss your child and let your wife be a nasty human
being,” Queenie said angrily.
    “ Mother, we will not have
this conversation now, and in mixed company,” Jackson said standing
up and walking away.
    “ I am so sorry, Granny,”
Shelby said sitting on the arm of the Queen Anne chair her
grandmother was sitting next to.
    “ Oh, baby, don’t you worry
about that now. What’s done is done. Logan, take my granddaughter
to the dance floor and dance her socks off,” Queenie
said.
    Standing up and laughing under his
breath Logan said, “Yes, Ma’am,” as he leaned down to kiss her
cheek. “Don’t you try and sweet talk me, young man. I am more than
you can handle.” Logan busted out laughing loudly.

The rest of the evening was tense with
the family, to say the least. But Shelby had not noticed; she was
having such a good time with Logan. Her female family members
seemed to be enjoying his presence there, too. Her fifteen-year old
cousin said to him, “I do not care what side of the tracks you come
from, you are HOT,” and walked away. Logan had turned and looked at
Shelby. She was not able to contain herself.
    “ Well, she has good
taste,” Shelby had finally said.
    Shelby and Logan were walking back to
the family table, coming off the dance floor from dancing again.
They had danced most of the night. Anytime Logan and Shelby were
sitting for too long, Queenie would tell them to get and hit the
floor and she would end with, “Shelby. No twerking,” and then
laughing. “Excuse me, Logan. I need to go to the ladies room.”
Shelby said grabbing her purse off table. “Will you be ok for a
minute?”
    Shaking his head and chuckling to
himself Logan said, “Shelby, I am not five, I can handle myself for
three minutes,” he said smiling at her. “Besides I am going to see
if I can get your grandmother to fall in love with me while you are
gone,” he finished, winking at Queenie. Shaking her head, Shelby
headed for the restroom.
    When she walked into the bathroom, she
was shocked by what she saw. Savannah was sitting on the sink with
her ankles on the shoulders of a man; his pants and boxers were
down, Savannah’s panties were hanging from one ankle and the man
was slamming into Savannah like a jackhammer as Savannah
moaned.
    “ OH MY GOD SAVANNAH!”
Shelby said, startling the couple. When the man turned toward
Shelby in shock she could see that her sister was sleeping with her
soon-to-be husband’s brother, Mark.
    “ Oh God! GET OUT SHELBY!”
Savannah screamed at her. “GET OUT!” she yelled again when Shelby
did not automatically move. Jarred into action, Shelby turned and
walked out of the bathroom. As she got back to the table, she was
shaking. She could not believe what she had just seen. What was she
going to do? Shouldn’t she tell someone; at least her
father?
    Just as she was sitting down at the
family table, she saw her sister storming toward her. As Savannah
got to the table, she grabbed Shelby’s arm to turn her toward her
saying in hushed tones that made Shelby feel like she was spitting
fire on her. “Look, you fat pig! You better keep your mouth shut or
I promise I will make your life miserable.” Shelby did not realize
until that moment, she had accidently sat next to Michael, her
sister’s fiancé.
    Snatching her arm away, Shelby stood
toe to toe with her sister. After what she had just seen, did she
really think she was going to allow her to keep playing the high
and mighty roll?
    “ It’s not like you have
not already done that my whole life, Savannah.” Shelby said to her
crossing her arms over her breasts. It was taking all she had not
to call her sister out right
