Betty took a huge bite out of her hamburger before she said anything else to John. When she finally did speak, John could smell the onions from her burger.
- . “I don’t think you’re being fair.” Betty set down her hamburger and wiped sweat off her forehead with a napkin. She hated eating outside at the zoo. “We’ve spent all morning looking at the reptiles. I want to go to the monkeys next.”
- . “But there’s a snake show at 1:00. We have to go!” John took a sip of his lemonade and watched his sister carefully.
