“Oh, don’t stand up and act as though you are going to hit me. That won’t make any difference to me. Tell me, Robert. Why do you follow Brett around like a poor bloody steer? Don’t you know when you’re not wanted? I know when I’m not wanted. Why don’t you know when you’re not wanted.? You came down to San Sebastian where you weren’t wanted, and followed Brett around like a bloody steer. Do you think that’s right?” (Hemingway 146)
When I said this I was very angry and frustrated at Cohn. I was fed up with him following Brett, my girlfriend and future wife, around. He still liked her and I was trying to make it clear that she was my girl. Even though Brett has affairs with other men she always comes back to me. Cohn was just one of those affairs. His relationship with Brett is over. When Cohn came to San Sabastian with Brett I kept it to myself thinking he would get the message and stop following her. He didn’t and I decided enough was enough.
