Talking It Over

Jeff: Can’t we go someplace and talk? It’s so crowded in here.

Sonia: Well, there’s a little park down the street about three blocks. It’s usually not crowded this time of day.

Jeff: Let’s go. I need to get some fresh air anyway.

Sonia: Just what is it you want to talk about?

Jeff: You remember that note you sent me last month?

Sonia: Which one? The one about the trip out west?

Jeff: Yeah. That’s the one. Listen. I’ve got a terrific idea about the whole project and we need to discuss it.

Sonia: Wonderful! I’d like to hear some of your ideas.
