Summary:
Sally has a phone and a busy life. She gets many phone calls mostly from her boy friend, Andrew. Sally and Andrew are going to a party tonight. Andrew says, “Wear your blue skirt.” But she thinks that she can’t wear the blue skirt because it is dirty.
Her friend suggests that they go out at lunchtime and find new skirt. Sally and her friend are looking at skirts. Sally buys a red skirt.
After that, she goes to café. Next to Sally, Paul is finishing his coffee. He stands up. Paul picks up his phone. Sally picks up her phone and goes back to work. But they pick up wrong phones. Sally has Paul’s phone and Paul has Sally’s phone.
Paul is in his office. His phone is ringing. He answers the phone. It is Andrew. Sally is at work. Her phone is ringing. It is Paul’s sister and she asked Sally to give a message to Paul. Sally is in trouble. Paul is in trouble too.
Paul phones Sally. They make a promise that they meet in Queen’s Square at a quarter to six.
It is half past five. Sally puts on her new skirt. They meet at Queen’s Square and change phones. They go to the café. She tells him message from his sister. And Paul says, “Let’s go to the party with me.” Sally turns her phone off and she goes with him. Andrew phones Sally. Sally does not answer.

Evaluation: 5 stars
Andrew tells Sally what to do and what to wear. He decides her action without complying Sally’s opinion. I think Sally have gone with Paul because she doesn’t like Andrew. I want to be a gentleman. I have a phone. I think I cannot live without phone. Phones are very useful. But, we should make much of talking directly. It is important to watching a face-eye, a mouth and an expression..
