Christine seethed with anger, thinking, "If Rachel hadn't just told me that Meryl's piece would be a strong contender, I would never have risked sabotaging her cello! After all, with so many eyes on me, was I out of my mind?"

She couldn't believe that instead of standing by her side, Rachel was trying to push her out of their group.

She thought, "How could someone be so shameless?"

She stamped her foot in frustration, wishing she could wipe that smug look off Rachel's face.
