4.15 Angry 生气

W: What's up? You sound a little down in dumps.

M: I quarreled with my roommate last night. He is really stubborn.

W: Calm down! Shouting won’t help?

M: He is really outrageous.

W: What happened?

M: I went back home last night. You know tired as a dog, so I took a quick shower and went to bed. I couldn't fall asleep, because Brian was there in the living room, playing his stupid stereo so loud. I kindly told him to turn that down a little bit. He shouted at me.

W: What? He can't do this to you.

M: Well, he did it anyway. Then he came into my room and shot all his shit blah blah blah… you know.

W: What did you do?

M: I shouted it back of course.

W: Hold it, Mike. You won't accomplish anything by hollering at him, right? You are worked up till now. Why not wait until you cool down a bit?

M: What would you do if you were in my shoes?

W: Just stay cool. You know. When you get back home tonight, tell him that you didn't mean to quarrel with him.

M: No way, Mike. I mean it's just not my fault.

W: I know. It wouldn't hurt much to say sorry first. And after that, you can casually mention the problem. I am sure he will cooperate.

M: I am too angry to do that.
