"Weren't you all gung-ho about getting that divorce? Can't bear to leave after just a few words exchanged?" I hastily wiped away fny tears, sniffed, and mumbled, "It's not that. The wind's strong out here. Got something in my eye." "Ah." He saw right through my lie, his sarcasm biting. "For something in your eye, you're quite the crybaby." What a terrible joke.
