It Looks Like Halloween



W: Hi, Kyle! How’s it going?



M: Oh, hi, Mary! Fine. And you?



W: Me too, thanks. (pause) Ah… I see you are absolutely ready for the Halloween party!



M: What? A Halloween party?



W: Yes! And your costume is absolutely perfect! You’ll be the scariest one at the party!



M: What are you talking about? What costume?



W: The costume you’re wearing, of course! It’s great! Your make-up, your clothes, the atmosphere around you; everything is just awesome! Are you a zombie? Or a vampire?



M: What on earth are you talking about? I’m not going to a party. And I don’t have a costume…



W: So why do you look like this? You’ve really big bags and dark circles under your eyes!



M: Yeah, that’s because I’ve slept only 3 hours a night this week…



W: And your clothes are so old and dirty, and even torn here and there!



M: Oh, I didn’t have time to change them…



W: And your hair is so disheveled. And… and I swear I can see a fang sticking out of your mouth!



M: Yeah, I really need to see a dentist, but this week I don’t have any time at all!



W: So why are you so busy, anyway?



M: You know: today I have a deadline for handing in my paper! And now I have only 2 hours left! I just haven’t got time to live!
