Sandy slammed her hand on the table and stood up abruptly, her face turning red with urgency. "How could you fall for a married woman? How could you fall for Sophie?" "Sandy! Calm down! It's not what you think..."

Sandy's anger only intensified. "Oh, great! You confessed? I'm definitely telling Dad! I'll have him break your legs!"
