How’s the soup Huh? Oh,
the soup. The soup’s fine. Very good, really. Really quite excellent.
You’ve always been a great cook. Yes, I have. You think you’ll miss me
when I die? Of course I’ll miss you. What a question! How could I not
miss you. We’ve been married for close to half a century. What makes
you think you’ll die before me? You’re healthy as a goat. I’m three
years older than you are. That’s nonsense. Women notoriously live
longer than men. Notoriously? Well, all right. Perhaps. But the
natural process can occasionally be speeded up You haven’t been
thinking of committing suicide, have you? No, I haven’t. But you’ve
been thinking that, after I die, you’ll get in touch with her again.
