"A Noise Next Door"
|
|
A: |
What were you doing last night? |
|
B: |
Why do you ask?
|
|
A: |
I heard a noise coming from your apartment.
Something was moving...something was bouncing...were you playing basketball
in your bedroom? |
|
B: |
Not me. I was watching tv, as
usual. I was reading, eating popcorn and watching the Shopping Channel.
|
|
A: |
Then who was making a noise? |
|
B: |
Maybe it was John, your next door neighbor on
the other side. He has a basketball game on Saturday. Maybe he was
practicing for it. |
|
A: |
I was going crazy. I was studying for a
big test and the noise was really disturbing me. |
|
B: |
I understand. Next time you should shout
out loud, "Hey, stop that noise!" and maybe the noise will stop. |
|
A: |
Good idea. Well, I was feeling angry, but
now I am happy again. Thanks for the advice. |
|
B: |
You're welcome. Good luck for your test,
by the way. |
|
A: |
Thanks. |
