Hi Kara, this is Mike.
Hello Mike. How are things going for you?
Great, how are you?
Fine. Everything is just fine.
Kara, I had a great time the other night and was wondering if you would like to go out again this weekend.
Mike, I enjoyed your company, but I am getting ready to graduate soon. I really need to focus on my studies.
Maybe I could help you with what you need to get done.
It would be better for me to just deal with getting my work done, but thank you for a lovely dinner.
