Hi, Mary, I didn't see you at work this morning. Are you all right?
Oh, I feel miserable. I've got a bad cold, My head is dizzy and my nose is running.
Oh, I'm so sorry to hear that. Have you seen a doctor or taken any medicines?
As a matter of fact I have, The doctor said it'll go away after a day or two. He's prescribed me some tablets.
Are you feeling better?
Yes, it helps me but I just have to wait and let my system do the work.
Do you need anything, grocery?
Oh, no, I'm fine. My refrigerator is piled up with food. But if it's not too much trouble for you. I'd like something to read.
Sure, I'll get it for you. Books or magazines?
I'd like both.
