Adrienne: So, Trina, Monday is Valentine's day. Are you excited?
Trina: No!
Adrienne: That was a pretty
direct1 answer. Why are you not excited? It's a holiday.
Trina: It's a holiday for people that have other people.
Adrienne: So, you're not happy because you don't have other people?
Trina: I have other people. I have my sister and my mom and my dad and my friends, but Valentine's day is more of a holiday for people that have a
boyfriend2 or a girlfriend, or a wife, or a husband, or children as
opposed3 to
being4 a single person with nobody to share it with.
Adrienne: But could you share it with your sister, or your mother, or your father?
Trina: I could. I could, and we do. We send each other gifts. We, well this year, I won't be with anybody, but I get to celebrate it with my sister this weekend.
Adrienne: Well, that sounds fun.
Trina: It is.
Adrienne: So what kinds of things have you done on Valentines day in the past?
Trina: Ah, gone out to dinner, gone to a movie, had dinner at my parents house, had dinner at my grandparent's house.
Adrienne: That's interesting. Why your grandparent's house?
Adrienne: Wow! That's a great day to have a wedding anniversary.
Trina: It is and it was a lot of fun. I got to spend some of their last few years together having dinner with them.
Adrienne: That sounds lovely. So are you looking forward to maybe having a Valentine next year?
Trina: Maybe! We'll, see.
