But the truth is we had a pure and responsible relationship for seven full years. Sitting by the palm trees, hand in hand, we would listen to romantic songs, watch the sunset, and weave dreams of being together with children of our own, forever.盡管布奇的性格有點(diǎn)野，但他在骨子里卻是一個(gè)完美的紳士，這值得高度贊揚(yáng)。我知道還有希望，所以我讓他去學(xué)院的秘書(shū)那兒進(jìn)行復(fù)議。s a rebel without a good future.
