Answer 1

I can’t recall being introduced to him. I don’t even remember seeing him. We counted on finding him on the spot. He couldn’t get used to being called an old man. She was quite unconscious of coming at a wrong time. Excuse me coming in without knocking. I’m really ashamed of not writing to you for a long time. She denied promising to call me. We hope he will succeed in finding his place in life. Why do you avoid calling a spade a spade. He is upset by having to start all over again.
