- Señor, ya hablamos con su señora y nos dijo lo que pasó. No hay, no hubo violencia aquí, que no más estaban hablando ustedes los dos, pero sí dice que quiere que usted ya la deja.- Sí, pero es ella que empezó, ella me tiene que dejar en paz. No quiero verla.- Bueno, bueno, y ella dice que no más se quiere dormir y ya se fue al cuarto y se va a dormir porque tiene que trabajar en la mañana.- Yo veré la televisión y estar un rato allí. No quiero verla.- Es esto que queremos que pase aquí. No queremos que pase algo más o que nosotros vengamos otra vez para cá.- De acuerdo, de acuerdo.- OK, gracias.

- Sir, we have already spoken with your wife and she told us what happened. There aren't..., there wasn't any violence here, you were just talking the two of you, but she says that she would like you to leave her alone. - But she is the one who started it, she has to leave me alone. I don't want to see her. - Good, good, and she says that she just wants to sleep and she has gone to her room and will go to sleep because she has to work tomorrow.. - I'll watch television and spend a while here. I don't want to see her. - That is what we want to have happen here. We don't want anything else to happen or that we have to come back again. - Agreed, agreed. - OK, thank you.
