Bella Swan/enjoys this way too much

Alice has a resting bitch face on for the rest of the day.

I was asked to reschedule an appointment because the client didn't like her attitude.

At lunch, she angrily stabs at her salad.

"You okay there, boss?" I ask. "Are you pretending that kale is my face or something?"

I bite into my bacon cheeseburger while she glares.

"I'm not okay. You are a bitch."

"Tell me something I don't know."

She throws her plastic fork at me.

"I think Jasper might be my Excalibur, and now I have to break up with him. All because your stupid boyfriend knows him, and it's possible that we could run into each other."

"Please tell me you did not just refer to your vagina as a stone."

"Fuck you, Bella."

"I don't see what the big deal is. If this guy is your ... sword in the stone"—I grimace—"then you're going to want to keep him around. So, of course, you would expect to cross social paths."

"Fuck you, Bella."

She stomps to her office and slams the door.
