@lller yup, the first one had no unnatural elements. The second one did, and it was “he turned around on me” that is kind of unnatural to say so it was voted out by me.
I personally would say “He got mad at me, so he turned his back and walked into the other room, slamming the door behind him”

@milkyspice Thank you very much! 😅 The first one didn’t have any unnatural elements? I’d appreciate it if you’d let me know what you would say in that situation. :)
