Dear diary.
Today I will write about some old story that happened to me, after the WWOne.
It was the end of the WWOne .
Therefore everyone wanted to runaway with the ship ,and I was among them.
And because of that the traffic was really heavy.

Because the heavy traffic I needed to share an accommodation with someone that I didn’t know.
SO, Instand of being sad about it I was happy , and though that because that I am friendly guy its will be fine.
Moreover than that the someone that I got to share the accommodation with name’s was British like I am,So I though that we probably had something in common .

As I wrote I was really friendly, so I went out of the accommodation to meet some new peoples.
Then, I met someone into the smoking room playing with patience which was my favorite one, so I came over to introduce myself.
After that I told him my name he answered that he thinks that we are sharing a cabin.
Than, he asked if I was British and it looked like he was surprise to hear that I answered yes , which was little insulting.

After that I met the one who I figured out that was clearly my partner ,who was kind of snob to me I went on to meet more passengers.
As you know , I really liked to organize Social actions for instance sweeps , quoits, concerts and golf matches… I liked to talk about everything , my world information was big and I knew how to react to everyone about everything.
I think that because of that everyone knew me as “Mister Know All”, and I took it as a compliment.

Over the time on the ship I got to know more and more people , and in most of the times I got to know them at meals time.
One day I sat with my partner at the doctor’s table. At that meal we talked about lots of topics.
With us sat some dogmatic man called Mr. Ramsay .His wife was there also.
Everyone talked about her and told that she is very pretty. But I couldn’t look at her that way because all I saw when I looked at her was the pretty real pearls chain that were on her neck. (as you know i really like pearls. bcause they were my job )

At the dinner I flattered to Mrs.Ramsay about her pretty necklace and asked her where she bought those real pearls that cost so much.
Her dogmatic husband stood up and started to laugh at me. He claimed that she bought this chain in 18$ .

His claim was mistaken, from the first minute I saw those pearls I recognized that they were real, because pearls were my job and I knew about them very well.
[About this subject really no one could argue with me ].

BUT.. Mr. Ramsay thought that he could.
We argued about pearls something like an hour and all the ship watched us.
Then he asked me “will you bet on it”? And I replyed “Done”.
(so, we made a bet)

After that we made the bet on 100$, I listened to his conversation with his wife.
She tried to convince him to cancel the bet that he made with me.
At that moment I recognized that she was hiding something.

I thought to myself that if Mr. Ramsay thought that this chain costed only 18$ and I knew that she costed more , actually lots of more he wasn’t the one that bought this necklace.
Then, I understood that Mrs. Ramsay got this chain from someone else. I supposed that she cheated on him.
This reminded me the time that cheated on my ex-wife. I remember that I was so sorry that I did that and how much I didn’t want her to know that.
So I saved her. I think that I did it because I tried to fix my mistake.

For the first time in a while I stood in front of so much lots of people and I told – ” I am sorry for my mistake. this chain is fake” .
I felt good that I helped Mrs. Ramsay to save her marriage.

We went back to the room. I set on the bad . Then, my partner saw an envelope that slipped under the door. He told me “take it, your name is on it”.
I took it and opened it. In the envelope were 100$ .
I understood that this money was from Mrs. Ramsay.(She wanted to give me my 100$ that I lost when I lied to saved her).
After that, she disappeared,I tried to find her, I wanted to talk to her but I couldnt find her .
And then we grew apart and i didn’t saw her again….
