The Phone Call
电话
The phone rang as he was leaving the apartment. He didn't answer it. It's probably Dave, he thought. His brother Dave had said he would call. He returned home an hour later. He checked his phone for missed calls. There was only the one call. But it wasn't his brother's number. Who could it be, he wondered. He dialed the number. A woman answered. She said, "Hello, Kim, how are you doing?" Kim was his wife's name. Who is this, he wondered. "Who's this?" he asked. "Who's this?" she asked. "You called me." He didn't answer. Now he realized who it was. It was some woman who called his wife occasionally. They had been classmates at school. His wife was polite to her. But his wife didn't like her. She never returned this woman's phone calls. He himself had never met or talked to her. "Sorry, wrong number," he said.
他正要离开公寓时电话响了。他没有接。他想很有可能是戴夫。他的哥哥戴夫说要打电话。一小时之后他回到家。他查看了未接电话。只有一个未接电话。但是不是他哥哥戴夫的号码。他想会是谁呢？他打了这个电话。一位女士应答。她说，“你好，金姆，怎么样了？金姆是他妻子的名字。他想这会是谁？他问道，你是哪位？她说，这是谁？你给我打电话。他没有接。现在他知道是谁了。偶尔会有女性给她的妻子打电话。他们以前是同学。他的妻子对她非常有礼貌。但是他的妻子并不喜欢她。她从来没有回过她的电话。他也从来没有见过或是和她说过话。他说，“对不起，打错了。”
