　　Mary 　14　 the battle in Mike's soul．He wasn't home as much, and we weren't talking as much, she says．I was wrapped up in the kids and I just couldn't imagine anything ever 　15　．The situation became worse when the Murrays attended a wedding and began to argue．Mary asked Mike if he was seeing 　16　 and he said, Yes．It's just an emotional (情感的) thing．Mike can still remember the 　17　 of hurt and total surprise on Mary's face．She was troubled, and he knew that he had turned against (背叛) his best friend 　18　 high school．The expression on her face jarred (刺激) him into 　19　 , and he began to understand the 　20　 he was doing to his family．
