It's so hot in here. Don't you have an air-conditioner in your apartment?
I'm moving to a new place in a couple of days. I am having the air-conditioner uninstalled.
Oh! But, how will you make it through this scorching heat?
Did you see that window there? It's a natural air-conditioner.
The problem is that it's just a little less powerful than the artificial one.
That wasn't funny at all.
Well, I'm going to move out anyway. I can handle a little heat for 2 days.
You should move out today.
I have to wait until the lease expires, you know.
Has Denice moved out?!
Yes. She moved out a couple of days ago.
Why didn't she tell me she was leaving already? Where is she staying?
She's now living in a very nice and quiet neighborhood. I don't know the exact place though.
I wonder if she's paying more rent.
I don't have a clue. Even if she is, it's still worth it, isn't it?
You're right! I think she's made the right decision by leaving that noisy apartment.
Absolutely. She must be happier now.
Hello. I'm calling in regards to the apartments you advertised for rent.
Yes. What kind of apartment are you looking for?
I'm interested in a one-bedroom apartment. Would you have any available?
As a matter of fact, I do have one on Rocky Street. When do you wish to see it?
Maybe next week. Can you tell me about the rent, please?
Well, the monthly rent is $550, with a $600 security deposit.
Oh, that sounds good. Is it possible to see the property tomorrow?
Sure, I can take you there. What time would you like to come?
How about 12PM?
Good. May I have your name, please?
My name is Karen.
Alright Karen. I'll see you tomorrow.
I'm thinking about buying a new furniture set for our living room. What do you say?
I think it's a good idea. We haven't updated our home since we moved in here.
Yeah. I saw quite an elegant and super quality set at HomeTown.
Then, why didn't you order it?
I wanted to talk to you first. Anyways, we can go there tomorrow and look at the samples in the showroom.
Alright. Let's see what you've chosen for the new look of our apartment!
