Lily frowned sulkily, "What's the matter with me? Nathan will pick me up in a while."
"That's exactly what I'm talking about!" Ariana Evans glared at her daughter with displeasure, her cigarette already burnt down to the last few puffs. She pressed the remaining stub into the ashtray and then reached for the pack to pull out another one.
"Mom, why are you smoking so much? It's bad for your health to smoke too much."
"Mind your own business!" Before lighting her cigarette, Ariana Evans shot back with an eye-roll, and Lily pursed her lips, saying no more.

After a couple more puffs, when her craving seemed appeased, she turned her head to look at her daughter and said sternly.
