So I waited on, but there was still no call. Three3passing by, I became more and more impatient. I was4that my agent didn't care about my work, and he didn't care about me. Overcome with that5,I started to shout at the phone, "Let me wait, will you? Who do you think you are?"
At that time I didn't realize my wife was6. Without showing her surprise, she rushed in,7the phone, tore off the wires, and shouted," Yeah! Who do you think you are? Bad8!" And she swept it into the wastebasket.
I stood watching her,9. What on earth?
She stepped to the doorway and shouted at the rest of the house," Now hear this! All10in this room — if you do anything to11my husband, out you go!" Then she turned to me, kissed me, and said12," Honey, you just have to learn how to take control." With that, she left the room.
