Lucky Dog
(Originally In English)
There was a couple whose dog had died,
so they buried it in the dog cemetery and then went home.
Neither of them said anything. But after a while,
the husband put his arm around the wife's shoulder
and said: "I'm sorry darling. I know I haven't been
very good to it -- the dog; but now that it has died,
I feel kind of sorry. If you really feel very bad
about it, I will consider getting another dog for you.
But to be honest with you, I don't love dogs.
If it hadn't been for my love for you,
I wouldn't have had that dog for one second."
The wife turned around and looked at the husband:
"What?! I thought it was your dog!"
When they moved in the new house, the dog
moved in too, the day of their marriage. Both thought
that the dog belonged to the other. So that was a lucky dog.
幸運的狗
有一對夫婦養的狗死掉了,就把它埋在狗的公墓,然后在回家的路上兩人
都沒說什么。過了一會兒,那個先生就攬了一下太太的肩膀說道:
「對不起,親愛的,我知道我以前沒好好對待那條狗,現在它死了,
我覺得有點難過,如果你真是那么傷心的話,我會考慮再買另一只狗給你。
不過說實話,我并不喜歡狗,如果不是因為愛你的關系,我一刻也不想養
那條狗。」這時太太轉過頭來看著他:「什么?我還以為是你的狗呢!」
他們結婚搬新居那天,那只狗也跟著住進去,所以兩個人都以為是對方
養的狗。那只狗真幸運!
