Shirley: Why do you want to eat western food so much today? Anything special to celebrate? Did you get a promotion1?
Benjamin: Honey, you really forgot about it? Think it over. It's a candlelight dinner.
Shirley: It's not your birthday, also not mine. Hey, come on. Just tell me.
Benjamin: It's our wedding anniversary2, honey. How can you forget about it?
Shirley: My dear, tomorrow is our wedding anniversary. We've been together for 20 years. But you never change. Always so careless! Do you remember the thing that happened on our wedding day?
Benjamin: Of course. I almost missed my own wedding.
Shirley: Yeah. Do you know that this restaurant used to be the teahouse where we first met?
Benjamin: Oh, really! It looks so different. Our “old place” turns into a brand new place.
Shirley: Do you remember our first date? I got a really special gift.
Benjamin: I can never forget that. I bought you five candies, but I was so anxious that I forgot to give them to you. You didn't get them until we parted. Then they had already melted4 down for I held them the whole time.
Shirley: Yeah, it's really unforgettable5. Thank you for making me happy all these years.
Benjamin: You are the one I should thank. You've done really great job.
Shirley: Let's stop saying these things. It's a wrong time but let's do the right thing.
Benjamin: Oh, I almost forgot. This is for you. Like it?
Shirley: Oh, a gold necklace! So beautiful. Can you help me to put it on?
Benjamin: Any time. You look gorgeous6, honey!
Shirley: Thank you so much. I'm so happy today.

雪莉: 你记得我们的第一次约会吗？我当时还得到了一个特殊的礼物。
本杰明: 我永远都不会忘记的。我给你买了五颗糖果，我太紧张就忘记把它们给你了。一直到我们要说再见的时候你才拿到了它们。那时候它们都已经化了，因为我一直握着它们。
雪莉: 是啊，那可真是难忘啊。谢谢你这些年来让我过得那么幸福。
本杰明: 我才应该谢谢你呢。你真的做得很棒。
