Pronouns

0 I have a trouble with the usage of pronouns when I tell someone something I've heard from someone else. 02br
00For instance, 02br
02br
00"Sara said, a tall blond girl punched a short brunette girl because the short brunette girl was kissing the tall blond girl's boyfriend. Then a tall brunette girl who was a friend of the short brunette girl punched back the tall blond girl in the tall blond girl's face." 02br
02br
00I am not sure whether the sentence above itself is OK or not. But if it's worth while, I want to know on which words I can replace with pronouns like 'she' or 'her'. 02br
02br
00Thanks in advance. 0-
