70. A Promise Is a Promise
Larry is talking to his classmate, Hedy.
L: Hey, Hedy! What seems to be bothering you?
H: I don’t understand why my boyfriend finds it so hard to keep his word.
L: What has he done this time?
H: Well, he made a date with me to see a movie last night, but he stood me up.
L: What a lousy guy!
H: I know. And there’s nothing worse than to be in love with such a guy.
L: Why don’t you just dump him?
H: I can’t.
L: Why not?
H: I promised I’d never leave him. And a promise is a promise.
L: Oh, boy.
