Dialogue:
- Sally, get into the car, we will be late.
- Could we wait a bit? Rose said she would come over. I havent seen her for ages. I miss her.
- Is she your old friend who is a chain smoker and never admits she stole my wallet last year? No, were not going to see her. Over my dead body.
- I see what you mean. Yes, she has some issues and suffers from tobacco addiction, but she doesnt do it on purpose! And last month she managed to find a good job. And you should hold grudge against her. She means well!
- I am running out of patience. Go ahead and stay but I am leaving. But you have to keep an eye on her. She might steal your wallet too!

Dialogue:
- Mary, whats bugging you?
- Dont ask. Mind your own business.
- Hey, take a chill pill!
- Sorry, Bob, I am very stressed.
- What are you stressed about?
- Bob, I cannot conceal it anymore from you.
- Whats wrong?
- Last month I told you that I obtained a new job.
- Yes, you did. It was a dramatic change in your life. You were just a secretary and then became an assistant financial director. This is a huge success! It even makes me a bit envious.
- No, Bob, I deceived you. I was fired and I am still unemployed. And despite all my attempts I still cant find a job.
- Why didnt you want to tell me anything about it? I am always here to support you. You can always rely on me.

Dialogue:
- Hey, Lisa, wassup. You look under the weather, whats wrong?
- Im alright. Im just losing my cool, George. I have always put up with everything my boyfriend said or did. But now I am really angry with him!
- Why are you angry with him?
- He is only interested in his friends. He is either watching football match with them or they are somewhere in a bar together. From time to time I believe that I am the only person he is not interested in.
- Oh, stop it. I am sure that at the end of the day he prefers you to a bunch of friends.
- Agh, it makes no difference! I am throwing away his things from my apartment! He is in big trouble now! And you can rely on what I am saying. Hes gonna regret it!

Dialogue:
"Hello, Nick," said Harry.
"Hello, hello," said Nearly Headless Nick.
"You look troubled, young Potter," said Nick, folding a transparent letter.
"So do you," said Harry.
"Ah," Nearly Headless Nick waved an elegant hand, "a matter of no importance. . . . Its not as though I really wanted to join. . . . Thought Id apply, but apparently I dont fulfill requirements -"
"But you would think, wouldnt you," he said suddenly, "that getting hit forty-five times in the neck with a blunt axe would qualify you to join the Headless Hunt?"
"Oh - yes," said Harry, surprised.
"I mean, nobody wishes more that my head had come off properly, I mean, it would have saved me a great deal of pain and ridicule. However -" Nearly Headless Nick shook his letter open and read furiously: "We can only accept huntsmen whose heads have parted company with their bodies. It is with the greatest regret, therefore, that I must inform you that you do not fulfill our requirements. With very best wishes, Sir Patrick Delaney-Podmore."
Nearly Headless Nick took several deep breaths and then said, in a far calmer tone, "So - whats bothering you? Anything I can do?"

Dialogue:
- Are there free tables?
- Yes, sir. Come this way please.
- Finally we have some time to eat out, James. Its brilliant that you came up with an idea to visit a Mexican restaurant. Im looking forward to this meal!
- Im glad you approve, Sarah.
- Are you ready to order?
- Yes, Ill try chicken breast. The menu says its covered with chili sauce. How hot is it?
- Its Mexican cuisine, sir, so pretty hot. You have to watch out for spices.
- Ill have something else then. Can you recommend anything?
- Well, why dont you have a steak? Its our speciality.
- I wonder if I can have it served with vegetables?
- How do you like your steak done?
- Rare, almost raw. And two glasses of red wine, please.
- What would you like, maam?
- Ill have the same. And could I have clean cutlery? This fork and knife are dirty.
- Of course, maam. Ill bring it to you in no time!

- We have been waiting for hours, James! It pisses me off!
- Compared to other restaurants, this one is the worst so far. They should definitely improve their service.
- The waiter hasnt turned up for an hour already. Never even approached us.
- But Im not sure I can get by without a meal today, Sarah. I will die of hunger! Look! They are bringing you your cutlery.
- Too little, too late. We are leaving this place! I cant put up with this service anymore. Lets go.
