| Саша, милый! Не произошло ли недоразумения? Я тебя жду уже час и решаюсь уйти, ибо много дела: нужно получить в банке деньги, купить Бобу платье, взять ванну и т. д. Прости ради Бога, что не мог дождаться. Жду Тебя в 6 часов с Верой.
П. Ч |
Dear Sasha! Has there been a misunderstanding? I waited an hour for you, and decided to leave, because I have a lot to do: I have to withdraw money from the bank, buy clothes for Bob, take a bath, etc. For God's sake forgive me for being unable to wait. I'll wait for you at 6 with Vera.
P. T. |
