Only Billy, Lauren, and Ruby remained in the vast banquet hall. Lauren picked herself up. Her once elegant evening gown was now marred with dust and wine stains, the sight of it almost too much to bear. Billy was seething with rage and lashed out with a slap across Ruby's face. "You've made a complete fool out of me!"

Lauren's arm swung up, returning the favor to Billy with a slap of her own. "Why the hell are you hitting Ruby? It's all a big misunderstanding, a damn trap set by that little bitch Josefina!"

"Lauren, have you lost your senses? Can't you see that it's Ruby who's made us the laughingstock? If she had checked her scores beforehand and hadn't been so vain, we wouldn't have been humiliated in front of our friends and family."

Tears streamed down Ruby's face as she tried to explain herself to Billy.

Lauren, livid, struck Billy again. "I won't let you talk about Ruby like that!"

The couple was locked in a tumultuous struggle when Ruby attempted to intervene, only to catch a stray punch from Billy on her nose.
