Kate: Remember, we're going to the theatre for your bday.
Chris: Oh, yeah. I almost forgot. What are we gonna see cause I forget.
Kate: Pinocchio.
Chris: Really?
Kate: I know John is a little too old, but he's still to young to see any adult plays.
Chris: He won't be happy! He's gonna say it's too babyish.
Kate: But it's a beautiful theatre. We've never been there. Plus, I'm sure everything will be very professional.
Chris: And a whole bunch of kids in the audience.
Kate: It will be ok, don't worry.
Chris: And then after that, we'll go to eat somewhere, maybe a nice Italian place. I'm paying.
Kate: Sounds good :) It's going to be really tough to make it on time. I forgot that John has his drum lessons on Sat.
Chris: Yeah, he finishes at 3. What time is the play?
Kate: 3 Oops 
Chris: Hmm... maybe he can go for only half an hour.
Kate: Yeah, so he doesn't miss it completely.
Chris: We'll pick him up around 2:30 and then go straight there.
Kate: Ok. How's work?
Chris: It's really slow right now. I feel so guilty when I don't have any work to do. Everyone else is so busy.
Kate: Yeah, I'd bet it's a really uncomfortable situation. Maybe you should mention something to your manager.
Chris: I was thinking about that. But I was thinking to hold off until after Christmas. I'll see, maybe things will improve. 
Kate: Ok, it's up to you. You know the situation best.
Chris: What would you do?
Kate: Well, they'll find out sooner or later. I mean, they just have to look at the logs and they'll know. It's better to come forward before they say anything.
Chris: Yeah, I know. So, you think I should mention something before Christmas?
Kate: I think so ;)
Chris: Ok.
Kate: Talk to you later. Bye.
Chris: Ok, bye.
Kate, Chris and John will see Pinocchio at the theater on Saturday. Chris thinks the play will be too childish for John. Chris and Kate will pick John up earlier from his drum lesson to make it to the play. Chris's work is going slow. Kate would mention it to his boss before Christmas.
