Una tragedia doméstica Matches base text
Language: English
I can’t take it anymore How can I keep my marriage together if I’m in love with Jan at the same time? It was so loathsome... It’s impossible to describe. I can’t tell you how long that day seemed to me Aaaaahhh... Yes, yes...this was...yes... It was good while it lasted— but there comes a time when you have to realize that it’s over. That’s good! I could hardly believe it. Was Stella really betrayed by her best friend? Oh, no, you don’t! I’ll kill you! I’ll kill you! Too bad...too god-dammed bad! I can’t believe she could just dump me like this— after all I’ve done for her and the children! It’s over. It’s over. It’s over.
