　　About the Time

　　Fred：What time is it?

　　Dina：8:50 (ten to nine)。

　　Fred：Your watch is 10 minutes slow, so it should be 9:00 (nine sharp). I’m gonna be late again. What will my excuse be this time? We should’ve set the alarm for 7:30.

　　Dina：Don’t cry over spilt milk. Fred, could you stay with me a few more minutes?

　　Fred：What, why? What’s wrong with you?

　　Dina：I just hate being alone at home with nothing to do but listen to the clock ticking. It’s so lonely and boring. My sickness makes it worse. When will I recover?

　　Fred：You’ll be fine in a couple of months. Just be patient. I’ve got to go to work now or I’ll be late。

　　Dina：You only care about your work。

　　Fred：Sorry, baby. You’re everything to me. All I do is for this family。

　　Dina：Stay just a few minutes longer, okay?

　　Fred：OK. I’ll leave at 9:15. Is that all right?

　　Dina：Yes。

　　Fred：I’ll spend more time with you in the future, Dina。

　　Dina：Thank you。
