Hello!
Hello, Debbie. This is Donald.
Oh, hi, Donald.
What happened yesterday? You forgot our date, didn't you?
Well, it rained hard all day and I had a bad cold, so I decided to stay home.
You did? But I tried to call you at least twenty times and nobody answered.
Oh, the telephone lines were damaged by the storm. They repaired them yesterday.
What did David do yesterday? Did he and Judy go dancing?
No, they stayed home and played cards with the children.
And what did you do? Did you play cards, too?
No. I listened to records and studied, what did you do yesterday, Donald?
I just told you, Debbie. I tried to call you twenty times!
