"Shut up!" Sophie's voice was choking.
"You! You disgust me!" Her eyes grew cold steel, a freezing rejection that immobilized Vicky in his tracks.
"Sophie …" Vicky's voice broke still in act trying to look hurt. He did not dare to speak loudly, as he felt her trust fading away from him.

Fine! I will grant you your wish at once!"
