致情人函

February 2, 2005

Dear Joy,

It’s been several weeks since you’ve written me. Is there something wrong? I know you are very busy with schoolwork, but remember that you

promised to write me at least once a week. I miss you very much. My only consolation is your letters and phone calls. Sometimes I don’t know

how I can survive three more years like this. I still wish you hadn’t decided to go to America for college. Just remember that you promised you

would love me forever. Please write me soon.

Missing you,

John

亲爱的乔依：

自从你上次写信给我至今已经好几个星期了。是否出了什么问题呢？我知道你功课非常忙碌，但是你要记得曾答应过每星期至少要写一封信给我。我非常想妳。你的来信和来电是我唯一的慰藉。有时候我真不知道如何再熬三年像这样的日子。我仍希望你当初没有决定到美国读大学就好了。记住你承诺过要永远爱我。请快写信给我。

想念妳的　

约翰　敬上
