Episode 40: Get dumped
Carlos: Listen Sarah, I just don’t get what the problem is...I’m only helping out here in the café, it’ll only be for a bit, Tony’ll be back next week...
Sarah: I just thought you wanted more than to make sandwiches in a little café...
Carlos: It’s quite a nice café!
Sarah: Well, yeah, I know it is, I mean it’s a good place for us all to meet up and hang out, but, well, you know..I thought you wanted to own a proper restaurant...
Carlos: I do!
Sarah: And when’s that going to happen?
Carlos: I ...I don’t really know...when I’ve got enough money...
Sarah: And when will that be?
Carlos: Don’t really know...soon – I hope!
Sarah: Well, let me know when it happens!
Carlos: Sarah – I’m not sure what you mean....
Sarah: I just, I just think perhaps we should take it easy for a bit, maybe stop seeing each other for a while...
Carlos: Oh, well...ok...I guess...whatever...
Sarah: Bye now...I’ll see you around, ok?
Fadi: Hi Carlos!
Carlos: Hello there.
Fadi: What’s up mate?
Carlos: Oh...nothing...
Fadi: Don’t believe you...go on!
Carlos: I’m just a bit fed up of working here...
Fadi: Well, Tony’s back next week, isn’t he?
Carlos: Yeah...that’s not all...
Fadi: What else?
Carlos: Sarah doesn’t want to go out with me anymore.
Fadi: Oh...sorry to hear that...well, never mind...perhaps you’ll make it up...
Carlos: Yeah. Maybe. Hope so.
Fadi: Olivia! Hi! Just the girl I wanted to see...
Olivia: Why’s that?
Fadi: Well, a couple of reasons...
Olivia: Go on...
Fadi: First, you know the business me and Harry and Johnny are starting...
Olivia: “FindLondon”? The tourist help service?
Fadi: Yeah...that’s it...well, we need some more capital...I wondered if you wanted to be in on it...
Olivia: Thanks, but no thanks...like I already said Fadi, I’ve got enough to do running my own business!
Fadi: Ok, fair enough.
Olivia: What was the other thing?
Fadi: Oh, yeah...I was wondering if you wanted to come out on Friday night? Go see a movie, go for a drink maybe...
Olivia: Oh...thanks, Fadi, but it’ll have to be a no on that one too – I’m looking after Joe on Friday...
Fadi: Joe your nephew? Oh...he’s always around, isn’t he?
Olivia: Family is important, Fadi!
Fadi: You sound like my dad...
Fadi: Listen...you do want us to carry on seeing each other, don’t you?
Olivia: Yeah...but nothing serious, eh? Let’s just keep it casual...
Fadi: Ok... Hey Carlos!...I think that’s two of us!
