Our favourite bar is Freud’s. We go
there a lot, especially on Friday and Saturday evenings.
Jane: Thanks, Matt.
Matt: Cheers.
Jane: What time are Helen and David coming?
Matt: Half past eight.
Jane: Right. Hey, guess what. I saw Simon last week.
Matt: Really? That isn’t very strange. He lives next door.
Jane: Oh, ha, ha. Very funny. No, I saw him in here. He was very good
taste. You know, I think he really likes…
Matt: Oh no.
Jane: What’s wrong?
Matt: At the bar. Don’t look!
Jane: Who?
Deb: Hi,
Danny! How are you?
Jane: Who is she, Matt?
Matt: She was my girlfriend.
Jane: Really?
Matt: Really.
Jane: How long were you together?
Matt: A month:
Jane: Only a month?
Matt: It was a very long month.
Jane: Right. …When did you last see her?
Matt: About three years ago. She moved to London. But she sometimes
rings to me at work.
Jane: So she still likes you?
Matt: Unfortunately, yes.
Deb: Matt!!
Matt: Oh Jane! Help!
Deb: Matty! How marvelous!
Matt: Deb.
Deb: How long is it? Three years? You still have beautiful eyes. You
are happy to see me, aren’t you, Matty?
Jane: Hello. My name’s Jane.
Deb: Sorry?
Matt: Err Jane is my…
Jane: Fiancée. Pleased to
meet you.
Deb: Fiancée?
Deb: I didn’t know you were engaged.
Matt: Didn’t you?
Deb: When did you engaged?
Jane: About six months ago.
Matt: Six weeks… months ago.
Deb: Where did you meet?
Jane: On the internet.
Matt: At a club.
Jane: We met in a chat room on the internet. And then we met face to
face at the club.
Matt: Yeah… right. Yes, that’s right! It was at a club.
Jane: And we fell in love, didn’t we, Matt?
Matt: Yes, we did.
Jane: I was very shy as first, but Matt was wonderful.
Deb: And when did you get engaged?
Jane: On the eighteenth of March.
Matt: Err, no. It was on the nineteenth. Don’t you remember?
Jane: Oh yes, you’re right, darling.
Deb: Where’s the ring?
Matt: Sorry?
Deb:
Didn’t you buy an engagement ring? For Jane.
Jane: He did.
Matt: I did.
Jane: But I don’t wear it… because it’s a secret.
Matt: Nobody knows we’re engaged.
Jane: Now, who wants a drink?
Dab: No, thank you.
Matt: Same again, please… darling.
Deb:
Matt. I can’t believe it. You’re engaged. I thought that…
Matt: Yeah. Sorry about that. Deb.
Matt: Don’t tell anybody about Jane. It’s a secret.
Helen: Oh no.
David: What is it?
Helen: Look at Matt.
David: He’s with Deb!
Helen: Poor Matt. He really didn’t want to see her again.
David: Yeah, poor Matt.
Helen: Come on. Let’s go and help him. David! He needs our help.
Helen: Hello, Deb. How are you?
Deb:
Hell… err Helen.
David: Hi.
Deb: Hi.
Helen: Did you tell Deb our news?
Matt: What news?
Helen: Matt, really. Matt and I are engaged.
Helen: What is it?
Jane: Hi everybody… What’s the matter? Is something wrong, darling?
Deb:
So you’re engaged to Matt. And Jane is…?
David: Jane’s with me.
Deb:
But I thought…
Matt: Er… would anyone like a drink?
Jane and I told Matt it’s OK to have
two fiancées... but he can only marry
one of us.
