Lesson 7 About the Other Day

Erica: Hey Stacey? About the other day… I'm really sorry about what happened.

Stacey: It's fine. I don't really want to talk about it.

Erica: Stacey, please. I'm sick of this silent¹ treatment. Can't we just talk about this?

Stacey: What's there to talk about? I mean, it's not like I actually bought tickets or anything. I only waited in the lobby² for about two hours. I mean, where were you?

Erica: I'm sorry. My boss told me I had to work late that night. There are a lot of big projects coming up, and…

Stacey: So your work is more important than our friendship?

Erica: Whoa, keep your shirt on! Can't we just set this aside and move on? I mean, we've been friends since we were kids!

Stacey: It's always been this way, though. You're always working late whenever we meet up. I know we aren't as close as we used to be, but can't we just hang out like we used to?
