"You know perfectly well why I do my best to keep away from you." I am truly sorry," I said. " Had I known that you would be so angry with me I would ...ave tried harder to restrain myself. But I don't know if I would have been able to resist your charms. But I still don't understand why it is so important to you that we should not indulge ourselves into the complete sexual act." Paul, I thought that I had already explained this to you. Since you persist to say that you don't know why, I will try. Having her back, hopefully forever, would be nice.
