Magda: Hi everyone!
Sarah & Olivia: Hi! Hello there!
Magda: Could I have a coffee please, Tony?
Tony: As usual?
Magda: Yeah—oh, by the way, do you have any 1)champagne?
Tony: Champagne? Not in this café, Magda...wrong place, sorry!
Olivia: Did I hear you asking for champagne, Magda?
Magda: Yes, you did!
Sarah: What are you celebrating?
Magda: Well, nothing yet.
Olivia: Go on!
Magda: The company I work for.
Sarah: Your architect’s company?
Magda: Yeah—we’ve been listed
for a prize!
Sarah: Hey—that’s great!
Olivia: “Listed”? So you haven’t won the prize yet?
Magda: No—but we’re in with a good chance!
Sarah: When will you find out if you’ve won?
Magda: Really soon—I’m expecting a phone call any minute!
Sarah: Oh wow! How exciting!
Olivia: Fingers crossed!
Sarah: So, Olivia—tell me. How are things going with Fadi? Have you been out with him again?
Olivia: (being 2)coy) Oh...well...you know...
Magda: Go on! Tell us everything!
Olivia: There’s nothing to tell! Really! Yeah, we’ve been out a couple of times, we went to
a movie last night, but we’re just good friends. Sarah: “Just good friends”???
Olivia: Yeah—really! I like him, he’s great, but nothing more than that.
Magda: I’m not sure I believe you!
Olivia: It’s true! Anyway, let’s change the subject—how are things going with you and Carlos, Sarah?
Sarah: Oh, OK.
Olivia: (laughing) Come on! Who’s being shy now!?
Sarah: It’s great, actually. I mean, we’re really different as people, but we get on so well together.
Magda: Sounds good.
Sarah: Yeah, it is, but, I mean, it’s difficult. He doesn’t really like his job here—he’s thinking about going back to Brasil soon. I don’t know if I want to go there!
Olivia: Oh, decisions, decisions.
(phone rings)
Sarah: Oh, is that you, Magda?
Magda: Yes it is. Now I’ll find out if we’ve won. Sarah/Olivia: (3)squeal of excitement)
Magda: (on phone) ...hello? Yes? Yes. Oh. So? Erm, I see. And? Yes? YES!!!
Sarah/Olivia: Hooray!!!
Sarah: You did it!
Magda: Yes! We won!
Olivia: 4)Fantastic! Well done!
Sarah: So was this a building you designed?
Magda: Erm, no, not exactly.
Olivia: But you designed a lot of it?
Magda: Erm, no, not exactly. Sarah: The doorway?
Magda: No.
Olivia: Erm, the windows?
Magda: No.
Sarah: What did you design then?
Magda: Erm, actually, just the handles. On the doors.
Sarah: Oh.
Olivia: The doorhandles?
Magda: Yes.
Olivia: I see.
Sarah: Well, that’s good! Doorhandles are important! You should be proud!
Magda: (sighs) Yes. I guess so. It’s a start!
Tony: Sorry girls—no champagne, but I’ll put extra sugar in your coffee. Free!
Olivia: (5)sarcastically) Thanks Tony!
