"Andy...?!" Helen squawked from the sidewalk. Andy looked up from the mouth-lock he was in, and smucked his mouth off of Ellie's.
"H-hi, Helen."
"I think I'd better leave," said Helen, who turned and quickly walked away.
"No, Helen, don't go! Don't-!" Ellie had him in a straightjacket hold, "Ugh, will you get off o' me?!" Andy shook out of her grip and ran to Helen. "Helen, it's not what it looks like-!"
"Oh, Andrew, if you try to give me a reasonable excuse as to why you were kissing a..." Helen looked Ellie up and down in her revealing clothing, "girl... well, then you're a bigger fool than I thought you were!" Helen felt weird, as she hardly ever raised her voice.
"Helen, I have a reason that doesn't make me a fool, and it's the truth-!"
"I won't hear any more of this, Andy. Oh," Helen began to tear up, "I never want to see you again!" and she walked off. Andy called out to her again, but knew it was a lost endeavor. He turned and marched back to Ellie, piping mad.
"You have been nothing but a nuisance since you got here, Ellie! Hear me, a plain nuisance!" Ellie looked indignant, "Don't you see that you just don't fit in here?!" Ellie moved to speak, but Andy wouldn't allow it. "Don't you dare interrupt me again! If you so much as show your face 'round here... ever... again..." Andy was puffed up with so much anger that he couldn't form words, so he just stomped off toward town.
"Oh, I've never been so insulted-! I could just... AUUGHH!" And with that, Ellie jumped into her car and sped right back to the hotel.
Andy walked all the way through town, past the Barber shop...
"Evenin', Andy!" Floyd greeted from the bench in front of his shop.
"Hi," Andy snooted, not even stopping or even looking at Floyd, which confused him.
He stormed past the Butcher...
"Howdy, Sheriff!" called the butcher from his door. Andy blew him off entirely.
He marched past the Corner Grocery...
"Hey, Andy!" cried the store owner.
"Oh, hello, hello, hello, to you and every dad-blamed person in this town!"
"Sheriff...?"
Andy marched all through town, right down to his office, where the world was predictable and normal. Andy breathed in a deep sigh, and laid his head on his desk. Ahhh... peace and quiet, Andy thought. Then his phone rang.
"Ugh, can't I just have one minute?!" He hesitated for a while until he realized ignoring the call would be ridiculous. He answered: "Hello?"
"Andy, it's me, Bee. Why are you at the station? It's nearing eight o'clock!"
"It's alright, Aunt Bee, I'll just come down now." They hung up. Andy reluctantly rose to his feet and walked out the door, locking it up behind himself.
