Would you correct my English? ( May 18 )
Hello. I wrote two dialogues. Will you correct them?
No. 1 On the train
F: Don't touch me. If you don't stop it, I'll scream [ cry ] for help.
M: Oh, what? I never touched you. Believe me.
F: ... Who did it, then? Anyway please go somewhere else.
No. 2
M: I'm sorry, Mr. Yamada isn't in the office at the moment [ now ].
F: Well, there's no hurry. Could you ask him to call me when he's back?
M: Sure. He'll be back this afternoon.
Thank you. kenta

Hi, Mr Micawber. You deleted two "it" in No. 1.
I wonder in what situation you don't say "it".
Sometimes I am told to put "it" after a verb.
Could you give me a brief explanation?

I have no real answer for you, Kenta-- I just try to make your dialogues sound natural and native. Sometimes, 'it' does follow verbs, no doubt-- but I cannot supply you with any guidelines that I know of.
