I saw everything with my eyes.Annie: Della, don't believe him anymore.Jim: Oh, my dear wife, how can you consider that you must have thought that the young lady and I have done something terrible to you. I love you and I always do.Della: Jim, don't try to explain. I know that I'm not so fair as she. She's young and beautiful. But I love you.Annie: Della, let's go!Yogi: Please wait a moment. My dear lady, I believe that you must have made some mistakes. In fact, I don't know this gentleman at all. All that I know is that he sold his prized golden watch to my boss to buy the beautiful comb for his wife. You must be his cheerful wife. You shouldn't have misunderstood him.Della: Is that true?Jim: Yes, you know that I will never betray you.Della: I'm so sorry. I misunderstood you completely now. Jim, you shouldn't have sold your watch, because…Jim: Dear, because I love you, I can do anything for you. However, now, the comb is useless, because you had your hair cut. What a pity! I don't know why you had it cut. Dear, tell me about it.Della: Jim, because…Jim: Because of what? Dear.Della: Because I want to buy a watch chain for you to match your watch but I didn't have ample money. So …Jim: So you sold your gorgeous hair?Della: You are fine.Jim: (hugged Della) ha ha! We all intend to give a surprise to our beloved, but now the surprise isn't the same we want to get. How funny!Della: The comb is nevertheless useful, because my hair can grow quickly, b ut your watch …Jim: It doesn't matter. I will work hard to get back on my watch. The most important thing is that you are happy and you love me.Yogi: I am very glad to see you dispel the misunderstanding between you.I wish you a merry Christmas!Jim and Della: Thank you! The same to you.。
