Situation 20:
The Laundromat
(Claas ends and Mike and Nancy leave together.)
Hey,what are you doing now?
Nothing, why?
Oh,I was just going to do my laundry and I was wondering....
(Interrupting her)
I’d love to,but there’s only one washing machine in our
dorm,right?
Right.But I know of a cool laundromat
about a block from school.How does that sound?
It sounds all right.What’s so cool
about this particular place?
Well,while you wash your clothes,you
can do a lot of other things too.
Other things,like what?
Well,they have a coffee bar.
No,I just had coffee before class.
They also have a snack bar with really
good pizza and sandwiches.
Aha,pizza,that’s more like it.I’m really hungry.
Good,If you come with me I’ll buy you some pizza.
It’s a deal.But I should warn you,I eat a lot.
That’s all right I just got paid at
work yesterday so I have some extra money.
I wish my girlfriend had some extra money sometimes—I pay
for everything.
Maybe you should think about getting a new girlfriend.
Don’t say that.Sarah’s a great girl.
I know.I was only joking.
Oh,good.
