Laura: (smiling) Sis did you see it?
Marion :( worried) What?
Laura: The invitation to the par…………………………… (Interrupted by Marion who has just
remembered)
Marion: (loudly) eeeh! It was very cool although the venue did not please me. They could have taken the party to a night club
Laura: That’s a good idea you have there. We had tried to talk to the management through our class representative about the same but they did not agree to change the venue.
Marion: What reason did they give?
Laura: They have a feeling that it might be a bit insecure to take students to a night club as anything can happen anytime. Besides, they said it would be exorbitant on the parent since the cost of paying the venue will be distributed among them.

Laura: They also said it would be hard to manage some of the students who are indiscipline

Marion: Wow! We will have to go shopping, I mean, that is if mum gives us some cash
Laura: That reminds me I had told her about my worn out games kit
Marion: You should have alerted me I also need another pair of skating shoes. What did she tell you?
Laura: She promised to take me shopping this weekend. That will depend on whether she has cash
Marion :( brings the topic back) I think we will have to insist on her buying us new clad for the party
Laura: You have it. The party will be next weekend. We are slowly but surely running out of time
Marion: Don’t worry sis, we still have sometime left
Laura: (on realizing they have reached home) I hope all will go as planned
