Carol’s husband was killed in a car accident last year.
Jim, only 52, was 81 home from work. The other driver was a teenager who had 82 a lot. Jim died at once. The teenager was in the 83 for less than three hours.
It was Carol’s fiftieth birthday, and Jim had two plane tickets to Hawaii in his pocket. He was going to 84 her. However, he was killed by a drunken driver.
“How have you 85 this?” I asked Carol, a year later.
86 welled up(涌出) in her eyes. I thought I had said the 87 thing, but she said, “It’s all right. I want to 88 you. The day I married Jim, I promised I would never let him leave the house in the morning 89 telling him I loved him. He made the same 90 _ . It got to be a joke between us, and as we grew older it got to be a(n) 91 promise to keep.
“I remember running down the driveway, saying ‘I love you’ just before he drove out of my 92 , or driving all the way to his office just to put a(n) 93 saying ‘I love you’ on his car. It was a funny 94 .
“We made a lot of 95 trying to say ‘I love you’ before noon every day of our married life.
“The morning Jim 96 ,he left a birthday card in the kitchen and then left 97 . I heard the engine starting. Oh, no, I thought. I 98 out quickly and knocked on the car window 99 he rolled it down.
“Here on my fiftieth birthday I, Carol Garret, want you, Mr James E. Garret, to 100 that ‘I love you!’
“That’s how I’ve survived, knowing that the last words I said to Jim were, ‘I love you!’”
