forgot how this worked.
當我去中斷他的電話服務時，
When I was disconnecting his service,
他不讓我把電話機帶走。
he objected to my leaving with his phone.
“那是我的電話機”，他生氣地說
"That's mine," he said angrily. "I paid for it."
“我付了錢的。”
"No, sir, you paid for the color, not the phone," I explained.
不是，先生，你付的是顏色的錢，不是手機。我給他解釋。
"Okay, take the phone," he said calmly, "but leave the color."
“那好，把電話拿走吧，”他平靜地說，“但顏色得留。
