Er der en det kan hjælpe med at rette mit engelsk resumé af Serrusalmus? :)

Serrusalmus is a short story, written by Lesley Glaister. The short story is about a girl called Marjorie. Since Marjorie was a little girl, she has had a fascination of ants. She could sit in front of the ants’ cage for hours and watch them. In her opinion were the ants like people, as busy as people and working together.

Marjorie suffers from agoraphobia which means she have a dread for people. Marjorie has a “boyfriend” whose name is Mick. He is a real troublemaker. He usually begs Marjorie for money or food. Marjorie changes opinion about the ants and got instead fish as pets, she felt calm and secure in their presence. She saw them as really peaceful and was in a world all of her own when she watched them swimming.   

One day Mick came to her apartment to transfer her sick angelfish into a new aquarium. Mick had always hated her fish so Marjorie found the helping very odd, but decided to have faith in him. Mick was just pretending to like the fish. He took the net with the fish and went over to the window and threated her for a hundred quid or else he would through the fish out of the window. She did not have the money, so Mick threw the fish out of the window. After the sad event, Mick came back and Marjorie pulled him a drink, which she had doped with the pills her doctor described for her agoraphobia. Mick passed out. She took her piranha in a bucked and put his hand in it. After a few minutes was his hand almost gone. The piranha had eaten it, and when she had put the piranha back into the aquarium, it blew her kisses. She held no grudge after. Now was the boot on the other foot.
