Breaking Point

On a particular day, during a night out for drinks, Jim reached his breaking point. Amidst their group, a mutual friend took things too far.
In a drunken stupor, the friend stood up and cracked a tasteless joke about the twins’ mother. He insensitively insinuated that their mother had been involved with two men, resulting in their conception.
Jim’s anger surged at the disrespectful comment.
