Learning Goal: I’m working on a writing question and need the explanation and answer to help me learn.Lisa St. John arrived at Los Angeles International Airport late in the afternoon after a grueling flight from London via New York and Chicago. She was exhausted and irritable, ready to chuck her job as a computer consultant for international corporations. Her mood did not improve when she found that Frank Mason, her fiancé, was not waiting to pick her us as he had promised. She had long suspected Frank of being a closet flake just waiting to reveal himself to her after he and Lisa were married and only an expensive divorce would undo the damage. The upside of his failure to show was that it gave Lisa cause to break things off. While she waited, she steamed and rehearsed just how she would ell him to marry someoThe plane had arrived at 4. Frank didn’t appear until nearly 7. Lisa had avoided eating so that her blood sugar level would drop. She wanted to feel awful, look awful. Frank deserved what he got: a whining, inconsolable wreck. Then she saw him,and her cup of wrath overflowed. Frank was smiling, carrying a dozen roses and a box that looked very much like Lisa’s favorite chocolates. He threw his arms open wide to greet her and in so doing hit Eben Sommers, a 90 year old man waiting to get a plane to Detroit. The blow broke Mr. Sommers’ glasses and his nose.
“You moron, why don’t you watch what you’re doing?” Lisa cried, as Frank struggled with the roses, candy, and Mr. Sommers, whom he was trying to help up off the floor. The old man had reminded her of her grandfather who had died a month earlier. Enraged, Lisa kicked at Frank but missed, hitting Mr. Sommers in the leg, breaking his tibia. Mr. Sommers cried out in agony. His cries brought Albert Fenstermocker, a German tourist, to his aid. Fenstermocker, thinking Lisa and Frank were assaulting the old man, began to beat Frank over the head with his cane. Seeing her fiancé assaulted by a perfect stranger, Lisa’s feelings changed. She threw herself at Fenstermocker, knocking him to the ground.
