"What the hell are you doing here?" a familiar voice rang out. It was Tom.
"Oh great." Bill said. Just the perfect time for Tom to finally show up.
"See, this is just what I'm trying to avoid." Gloria said, as if this were all Bill's fault.
"What are you talking to her for, man? You know how this makes me feel." Tom said.
"I'm not talking to her." Bill replied. He didn't blame Tom for that outburst. He had a lot on his mind.
"Sure looks like you are." Tom said.
"She's talking to me. I'm not talking to her." Bill countered.
"You know what, that makes more sense." Tom replied.
"Listen, you know I would never choose this." Bill said.
"Yeah,you're right. I'm sorry." Tom replied.
"You apologize to him? You apologize to HIM but not to ME?" Gloria shouted.
"Gloria, listen. We've been through this song and dance too many times. We've had this argument too many times. We're over. We're done. Please. Let's just end this quietly." Tom said.
"You tell her, Tom." Bill said.
"Shut up, Bill. You're not helping this."
"Sorry. I'll shut up." Bill said.
"At least Bill has a little bit of sense here to SHUT UP. Tom, we can fix this! I have forgiven you, if you can forgive me, we can work this out!"
"You forgive me? You forgive ME? Gloria, this is the problem exactly. We can't go on like this."
Bill could see the anger building in Gloria's face. But more than that, he could see a green glow erupting from her hand. From the stone!
"What the hell..." Bill said.
But before Bill could point anything out, Gloria erupted with a statement that would have grave consequences
