"I wandered over across the hall where they were showing a short movie about vasectomies. Much later I told her that I'd actually gotten a vasectomy a long time ago, and somebody else must have gotten her pregnant.

But nothing I could think up, no matter how dramatic or horrible, ever made her repent or love me the way she had at first, before she really knew me."
