Courtship

Alex: Hi! Are you busy?

Elizabeth: Nope. Why?

Alex: I just miss your voice.

Elizabeth: As always, nothing's new, the truth, Alex?

Alex: Absolutely yes. It costs me too much to call you. Just for you, no matter how expensive it is I do.

Elizabeth: Hoping it's true.

Alex: Believe me when I said that. Anyway, where are you?

Elizabeth: I'm here at the hotel.

Alex: What are you doing there? And who's with you? There's dismay on his voice and you can hear jealousy on his part.

Elizabeth: One by one weak opponent. Will you shut up? I'm raising my voice so loud and all eyes are on me now.

Alex: You know I'm jealous type of guy. What's mine is mine only.

Elizabeth: My goodness! Stop. Go ahead you might have something to do there. Bye.

What the-she turned off the phone before he can speak up, dammit? He said.

He went to the hotel where she's into. He drove all the way to the hotel to surprise her instead. He walked into the lobby of the hotel and looked around trying to find her among the people in the hotel. Bam! There she goes sitting in a table holding a book and then he walked over to where she's seated, trying to surprise her & speak vehemently.

Alex: Is the seat taken? (Chuckles)

Elizabeth: No (smiling)

Alex: What's good to eat here?

She nods her head and smiled at him while holding the book she read.

Alex: The chocolate explo (chuckles) explosion cake. It sounds good. Or-or not. What do you think? You look good.

Elizabeth: What are you doing here?

Alex: Oh, I'm just doing a quick tour & then you caught my eye so I dropby here. It was a crazy time actually. I was at this party last night with all these famous people there. Famous artist played at it, which was pretty--pretty cool.

Elizabeth: Oh.

Alex: What are you doing here?

Elizabeth: Reading. Don't you see what I'm doing?

Alex: You're so mean, just askin'

Elizabeth: You know what I'm doing yet you keep on asking?

Alex: What is it that you do again?

Elizabeth: Reading my Spanish book.

Alex: Uh. What is that?

Elizabeth: Spanish comprehension. It's really more uh, predictive analysis. I was internalizing when you suddenly appear now I forgot everything I've read.

Alex: Do you speak Spanish? (Both chuckles) Where's home again for you?

Elizabeth: In my home of course. Hey, stop it.

Alex: Where you live too, that's my home now. (He likes to tease her always and loves doing it to her all the time.)

Waiter came and asked for their order -you ready sir?

Alex: Hey. Uh-- I'm not gonna get that chocolate explosion cake. And uh, you know what, make it two and one for the lady over there.

Elizabeth: None for me thanks.
