Conversation 2: Social English

Mark: Hi, Allie. Wow! You look great! Nice dress.
Allie: Oh, thank-you. This is for you … for your birthday. I bought you a little present. Oh no! I hope it isn’t broken.
M: It’s a mug. … It was a mug. Thanks Allie.
A: I don’t believe it. I’m sorry Mark.
M: No problem. It was really nice of you.
A: I’ll get you another one tomorrow.
M: Don’t worry. Listen, did you call a taxi to go to the restaurant?
A: No, I have my car outside. Come on. It’s time to go. I booked the table for eight and I’m not sure exactly where the restaurant is.
M: Hey, Allie. Relax. This isn’t work. This is a night out.
A: Sorry. I’m a bit stressed today. Okay. Let’s go.
