Helen is talking to her Dad and asking when the works on the flat will be finished. But she’s in for a shock.
Helen: | Dad, are you finished at the flat yet? |
Dad: | Almost. You know I’ve been meaning to talk to you about it. |
Helen: | What is it dad? |
Dad: | Now don’t take that tone with me young lady. |
Helen: | Dad! |
Dad: | I’m warning you. |
Helen: | I’m sorry dad. So, what do you want to talk to me about? |
Dad: | Well the flat renovation was going really well. |
Helen: | Was? |
Dad: | The kitchen has been totally transformed and Khalid’s bedroom has been given a great make-over. |
Helen: | I feel a but coming on. |
Dad: | Well the downturn in the economy has affected us all. |
Helen: | Yes, yes but what about the flat? |
Dad: | Well let’s just say the finances did not quite stretch to the sitting room. |
