I still remember quite clearly the day when my parents got divorced (離婚).Dad kissed me goodbye and left.
For a long time Mum and I lived a peaceful life.Then one day,Jim came over for lunch wearing a blue suit with a short brown tie and a green shirt.I couldn't believe this was going to be my new stepfather.It couldn't be true that my beautiful mother would marry someone who dressed like a clown (小丑).I hated him.
Lunch was terrible.Mother kept trying to start a conversation,but neither Jim nor I would say much.Finally I offered to bring in the dessert just to get away from the clown.
Something unpleasant happened,but I didn't mean (故意)to do it.I guess the plate slipped.But one minute I was handing Jim his blackberry pie,and the next,dark purple berries were oozing (滲出)all over his shirt and tie.
I was mortified .My face turned bright red.Jim looked very much surprised at first,but then he began to laugh.I started to laugh too.Maybe this guy was all right,after all.Then I had a quick look at my mother.She looked happier than I had seen her in a long time.
