Ricahrd kept silent and downcast. Marie continued to ask him.
"Do you still love Sally? I think Sally doesn't love you and never will nuless she completely give up Steve. Are you Ok with that? I can't stand Sally's act. You are a dusgrace, Please try to understand me. Be careful! I love you. It's not just sympathy. When I met you at your wedding, I felt in love at first sight. I've never felt like that before. Then I vegan thinking about you almost everyday. I know Sally's feelings, so I was often jealousy of her. I really hoped that you and Sally would be happy together, but it was the worst effect. I know that you guys need to talk, but I'm very worried about you, Sally might betray you again. She has an emotional problems right? Please don't go alone, please!! I want to be with you."

Ricard said, " I don't konw what I to say, but thank you Marie, I really happy that you can tell me your feeling, but it's our problem. We must have solve ourselves. I have to go. I shouldn't stay any longer."

Marie broke down and said, "What about me!! What should I do? Don't you care about my feelings?"
However, Richard didn't stay longer.

It has been normal life except for Sally. Linda has to deal with Sally and her relationship problems. Sally is older than her and she was Linda's best friend at cooking school.
Linda never expected this situation. She should pay attention to Sally's feelings. She understood why Steve had not heard about cooking school when she mentioned it to her friend, Sally. If she noticed it quickly, it things might better now...She wanted to make up with Sally, but she had no idea how. Linda has been thinking the same thing.

"Linda! You shouldn't be think like that.! Linda's mother was irritated.
Her mother was plump and had a big heart. Her friendly expression was always wrapped around Linda's mind. Linda answered quickly.
"What's 'THAT THING'? I wasn't thinking about anything."
"Your face is more honest than your words. I can read you like a book. You should be thinking about Steve. Hum! I'll tempt him...I've never seen such a great guy! " her mother said and went down the stairs humming tune.
"...You think of nothing except for your husband, don't you?!"

He thought that if he was depended on her. that was no good for both of them. He has been dodging of Sally. In any case, it was very serious for them. He had to talk with Sally about what they would do in the future. He wrote a short letter to Sally.
"Would it be possible for you to make some time? I'd like to meet and talk with you. My phone number has changed, because I lost my cell phone. My new number is 090*********..I'm waiting for your call. Richard."

Richard went back to Marie's home, than as usual straight to the bathroom and took a shower. While Marie was preparing dinner, she noticed that Richard's suit was quite dirty, so she thought she would take his suit to the cleaner's . She checked its pockets, as she found a small note. She read that unconsciously. It was Sally's letter! She was shocked. Recently, she had been very happy because she really liked Richard more than before. Of course, she knew his mind , but she wanted to keep their relationshig going. Marie retuned the letter and continued to make dinner.

After dinner, Marie said,
"Richard, I think you'd better talk with Sally. I guess it's time for both of you."
Richard replied,
"Thank you Marie. I was thinking the same thing. To be honest, I wrote a letter of Sally. Marie nodded "Really? That's a good idea, but you should call her now. I want to know the outcome."
"Richard didn't know what she was talking about.
"Marie, what's happend? Something wrong? It seems you are a different person."
Marie mumbled an excuse.
"You know what!! I love you , I love you so much. I want to stay with you."
Richard was confused.

ポールとマンツー

できれば、今月中にＳ＆Ｒの添削だけでも終わらせたかったので、レッスン丸ごと使って、出来るトコまで教えてもらいながら直してもらいました。

超バカうけされてしまいました。　決して私の話が面白かったわけではなく、単に、超日本人的考え？というか、間違いだったらしく、腹抱えて笑う勢いで大爆笑されました

Ｓ＆Ｒの最終章あたりなので、まだまだアップは先ですが・・れもン的には、初々しいというか可愛らしい新婚カップルとか言いたかったのですが・・んな事は言わないと。斬られました！


この話は書き始めてからどのくらいになるの？って聞かれて、９ヶ月・・って答えたら、考え深げに、以前より、随分間違いも減ってきたよね。って、ちょっと褒められました。
ほんと初期の頃はヒドかったし・・・我ながら。９ヶ月、多少なりとも成果が出てよかった。

今日は４ページちょっと見てもらえたから、後残すところ、約６ページ・・・人にもよるけど（あと、れもンの間違えっぷり）１,２回マンツーに当たれば・・・何とか・・・。って今月もう予約１日しか入れてないけど・・・。もう１日増やそうかなあ？　５月末の残ポイントの１０％ゲットにむけて、既にポイントの使い方の計算が始まっているれもンでした・・。

どうやら切捨てではなく四捨五入らしいので、きっちり一の位が０でなくてもいいみたいだし・・

計算・・計算・・・

"It's great. Do you want to talk about Steve more today?"
