A little maybe; I've been saying it so long to you, you just wouldn't listen. Every time you said, 'Farm Boy do this' you thought I was answering 'As you wish' but that's only because you were hearing wrong. 'I love you' was what it was, but you never heard, and you never heard.' ~ Westley

-Tienes una soberbia imaginación, Billy.
No sé qué le contesté. Probablemente "gracias" o algo por el estilo.
-Aunque no logro sacarle partido -prosiguió-. ¿Por qué será?
-Creo que a lo mejor es porque necesito gafas y no puedo leer, ya que veo las palabras muy borrosas. Eso explica por qué me paso todo el rato pestañeando. A lo mejor, si fuese a un oculista, podría recetarme gafas y, entonces, sería el mejor lector del curso y usted no tendría que hacerme quedar tantas tardes después de clase.
Se limitó a señalar detrás de ella y a ordenarme:
-Ponte a borrar las pizarras, Billy.
-Sí, señorita.
Lo de borrar las pizarras se me daba de maravilla.
-¿Las ves borrosas? -me preguntó la señorita Roginski al cabo de un rato.
-¡No, qué va! Me inventé la historia.

How can you even dream I might be teasing?
Well, you haven't once said you loved me.
That's all you need? Easy. I love you. Okay? Want it louder? I love you. Spell it out, should I? I ell-oh-vee-ee why-oh-you. Want it backward? You love I.
You are teasing me now; aren't you?
A little maybe
