The cafe door chimed as Sarah stormed inside, eyes blazing. She spotted him immediately, the man she’d been seeing for three months, currently nestled into a booth with a woman who was definitely *not* her. Sunlight glinted off the woman’s perfectly-coiffed hair, a stark contrast to Sarah's hastily-pulled-back ponytail. She stomped over, her heels clicking a staccato rhythm against the tiled floor. “David,” she bit out, her voice tight. "Care to explain what *this* is?" Her hands clenched into fists at her sides, nails digging into her palms. The sheer gall of it, the audacity, choked her.
