Dan followed his wife into her room. Soon, their muffled argument was heard from the room.

"I'm not doing anything wrong!" She glared at him.
"I know. I'm not accusing you."
"Oh really...then why are you telling me not to do it again?!"
"Because it hurts to see you with him." He played the pity card.
