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。
