That night, when he told Rita, she was…31… The move would mean they would have to leave their lovely home that they had been remodeling over the last seven years. The girls would have to find new friends.
Finally and most…32…could Rita find a job as good as the one she has? It seemed unfair to force her to move and give up a good job, just so Charlie could satisfy his own…33… It turned into a real argument. Charlie wanted to move and Rita did not. Charlie was saying that he is a striver and Rita was saying she is happy with their status in life.
