A call from the park
It's a warm Saturday morning, and Ali is calling his sister from the park. "What are you doing?" she asks. "I'm sitting on a bench near the lake," he says. "The sun is shining, and some children are feeding the ducks. A man is selling ice cream, but nobody is buying any, because it's only ten o'clock." His sister laughs. "Lucky you! I'm not relaxing at all. I'm cleaning the apartment, and the kids are watching cartoons instead of helping me. Are you coming for dinner tonight?" "Sure," Ali answers. "And I'm bringing dessert. Maybe ice cream!"
