Act cold toward
Hi teachers. I'm trying to set a scene:
Jess takes a sip of her drink as a cheerful Phillip comes up to the bar together with Ryan. Ryan acts cold toward Jess.
(then dialog follows)
1) Is using "as" an okay way to connect the two clauses in the first sentences? Does it sound like she takes a sip because she sees them coming up to the bar or does it just sound like she takes a sip and then she sees them coming up?
2) Is it okay to write "a cheerful Phillip" or does it sound odd?
3) Is "acts cold toward" understandable?
