When the workers and the removal van leave, Maria talks to Andreas. | |
Maria: | How could they forget the crockery? Now we don't have anything to eat with! |
Andreas: | Calm down, honey. Why don't we ask our neighbours to lend us some plates, knives, forks, spoons and cups? |
Maria: | Good thinking! It will give us an opportunity to introduce ourselves! |
Andreas: | You know what, let's have a house-warming party this Saturday! We can invite all our neighbours. |
Maria: | That's a great idea! |
They walk to the neighbour's house and ring the bell. A woman opens the door. | |
Maria: | Hi! We're the Fernandez family. We're from next-door! My name is Maria. |
Betty: | Oh hi! Nice to meet you! I'm Betty. |
Andreas: | Nice to meet you too, Betty. I'm Andreas. |
Maria: | Betty, do you have some spare crockery? |
Betty: | Sure, I do. Do you need some? |
Maria: | Yes, please! The removal company forgot ours! |
Betty: | Sure, no problem! Just a second. |
She goes inside and comes back with a box full of crockery. | |
Maria: | That's so nice, thank you! Betty, would you like to come to our house-warming party this Saturday? |
Betty: | Sure, what time? |
Maria: | Around three in the afternoon. |
