Take Me Back!让我回来！

读故事

  “I've been all over the place since we broke up and, all things being equal, you're still the best woman for me!” Butch said. “I thought it was all right with Sarah. But then I saw all sorts of things that reminded me of you and how wonderful you are. Please, Jane, let me come back!”
  “Butch. You low down scum of the earth. What do you think, that I'm going to go through it all over again with you? You're crazy! I could allow for some of your excuses, but alluding to your time with Sarah confirms that you are still not all right! You need your own break from women!”
  “But Jane, I wrote that poem for you!” Butch pleaded.
  “And it was nice all told. But that poem allows of several interpretations. You could have written it for anyone! And I don't even know if you even wrote it for sure! No sir! I'm over you!”
  “But I came all the way home for you, Jane! I promise I'll never leave again. And, and, I'll get rid of the cat that you're allergic to. Really. I'll stay with you all year round! Sarah meant nothing! You're my true love!”
  “That sentiment is all well and good. But I have already wasted all the time I am going to waste on you. Please leave before I call the police!”
  “But, but....” Butch pleaded as he dropped to his knees.
  And then Jane slammed the door!

    “离婚之后，我到处转了转，在其他各点都相同的条件下，你还是最适合我的女人！”布奇说。“我原以为萨拉挺适合。但后来我看到各种各样的事情，让我想起了你和你的好。简，请你让我回来吧！”
    “布奇，你这个卑鄙的社会渣滓。你想什么呢？以为我会重新跟你再过一遍？你疯啦！我可以考虑你的一些理由，但是提及你和萨拉在一起的事让我觉得你还是没想好！你需要和女人保持一段时间的距离！”
