Angelo repeatedly fiddled with his tie the entire night. Yet again, they have been invited to another fundraising event, the very same one that Angelo had often avoided for many years. Instead, he preferred paying forward his donations.
However, this year was different; Emily persuaded him to come this evening, and not only that, but he's also been chosen to be the main speaker this year.
"Stop doing that; you will ruin your shirt," Emily said, and only then did Angelo let go of his tie.
"I hate this type of events," Angelo said, reminding Emily one last time of how much formal events irritated him.
"Oh, please stop being a big baby! we are doing this for a very good cause, okay? Now smile and look pretty," Emily flashed a light smile at Angelo. Seeing his wife happy and away from danger filled a small portion of Angelo's heart.
