Situation 17:

Going for Coffee

Charles,I have time for a cup of coffee,do you?

Are you buying

Sure.It’s the least I can do for all your babysitting.

I never said you were a baby.And,yes,I’d love some hot coffee.

Good,because I know a great cafe that

just opened across the street from school.It’s called Someday Cafe.

Someday Cafe? That’s a cool name.

But is the coffee any good?

Good? It’s great.I alawys get the double latte,but their normal

coffee is tasty too.

Sounds good.Let’s go.

(Charles and Mike quickly get dressed and go to the cafe.)

Hello,what would you like this afternoon?

I’ll have a double latte,please.

And you?

Could I please have a large coffee?

Of course.That’s one double latte and one large

coffee,right?

Right,how much is that?

No,I said that I was paying.

Well,that will be four dollars

and fifty cents for whoever is paying.

That would be me.Here’s five dollars.

Thank you.Here is your change.

Thanks.Charles,let’s go sit over by the window.

Okay,how about on that sofa?

Okay.
