I needed to be calm to think about what to do next. I gulped down the whole content of the bottle and slowly walked to the living room and sat down on one of the couches."That nitwit had the guts to hit me, and of all places, my freaking balls!" I let out vehemently. I was about reducing her to nothing, I was about reminding her of who she will ever be regardless of how hard she tries not to be that person.
