Affair
In 1986 Matty Nolan began an affair. Sheila Grant found out and was troubled by this and her staunch Catholic views. Sheila later told Theresa about their affair, leading to a bitterness between the two which Bobby was completely oblivious of. Damon became concerned by the way Matty was behaving towards his mother and ordered Matty from the Grant house.

Famous quotes containing the word affair:
“What a day-to-day affair life is.”
—Jules Laforgue (1860–1887)
“An affair wants to spill, to share its glory with the world. No act is so private it does not seek applause.”
—John Updike (b. 1932)
“Time, which shows so vacant, indivisible, and divine in its coming, is slit and peddled into trifles and tatters. A door is to be painted, a lock to be repaired. I want wood, or oil, or meal, or salt; the house smokes, or I have a headache; then the tax; and an affair to be transacted with a man without heart or brains; and the stinging recollection of an injurious or very awkward word,—these eat up the hours.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
