Hurry Up, We Can’t Be Late

Are you done yet?

What’s the rush? I’ll be done in an instant.

An instant is up. Are you done yet?

You’re being ridiculous.

I told you that he was adamant that we aren’t late.

I’m sure he’ll be amenable to us being a few minutes tardy.

I’m never late.

Look at you. You always have to toot your horn, don’t you?

Listen to me. If we are late, he’ll surely impose some restrictions on us. Knowing how angry he’ll get if we’re late, I’m going to lie low for a while.

Do whatever you gotta do. I’m going to take my time and finish my bowl of strawberry ice cream. I don’t want to get an ice cream headache by eating it too fast.

You’re just asking for trouble, aren’t you?

You’re such a wuss, you know. You’re afraid of your own shadow.

Mark my words, you’ll regret crossing him.

We’ll see, my friend, we’ll see.

    Tell him to take some ice-cream as a bribe – always works.
