Elementary ‐ Daily Life ‐ No Smoking! (C0125)
A: It smells like an ashtray in here!
B: Hi honey! What’s wrong? Why do you have that look
on your face?
A: What’s wrong? I thought we agreed that you were
gonna quit smoking.
B: No! I said I was going to cut down which is very
different. You can’t just expect me to go cold turkey
overnight!
A: Look, there are other ways to quit. You can try the
nicotine patch, or nicotine chewing gum. We spend a
fortune on cigarettes every month and now laws are
35
cracking down and not allowing smoking in any public
place. It’s not like you can just light up like before.
B: I know, I know. I am trying but, I don’t have the
willpower to just quit. I can’t fight with the urge to reach
for my pack of smokes in the morning with coffee or after
lunch! Please understand?
A: Fine! I want a divorce!
