[Paddy swore under his breath when she said that,] For fuck's sake. [His first reaction, to be honest, was anger. He didn't think much about the reasons, or why she might have said that, just that it... he knew how much thinking that hurt, let alone being told it by someone else.] I'm gonna fucking punch her fucking face in. I don't give a shit if it's true or not, I fucking am.

[He took a deep breath and tried to think for a second,] Why the fuck did she say that?
