'See, Vernon Phoenix Gray? This is what you get for trying to lower your guard. You pathetic bastard!' Vernon cursed himself. He wasn't in the mood to enjoy the time anymore— though he still wanted to eat this banana cream pie alone.
He wanted to be angry, but he found himself feeling even more pathetic if he let his sister-in-law's act of disgust affect his emotion that much.
Thus, Vernon grabbed his large plate and a glass of water and got up.
Mackie stopped eating her banana cream pie and asked, "Uncle, where are you going?"
"I'm going to eat alone in my room. I have things to do," Vernon replied. He slammed the door into his bedroom, eating the banana cream pie alone.
Mackie followed her Uncle's back until he entered his bedroom and wondered, "What's wrong with Uncle? Why is he angry?"
Mackie didn't know what went wrong and mostly didn't care because she had gotten used to her big bad wolf - Uncle Vernon's mood.
