Franklin: Hi Ellie! Tried your phone a few times, no answer, though I'd message you instead.
Ellie: Hey, Franklin, Happy Holidays! Yeah, my phone had run out of charge and I didn't check it, sorry.
Franklin: Family OK, they missing my urbane British ways!?
Ellie: 😂 Well, they did like you, not sure they were taken in by that Lord of the Manor stuff!
Franklin: Worth a try? Thought I might have heard from you lately.
Ellie: Well, ditto! Where've you been hiding yourself in work?
Franklin: Right 😰 Well, wondered if you fancied coming to Chad's New Year's party, all the gang from work will be there!
Ellie: I'm not bothered about work people, asshats and computer drones, the lot of them!
Franklin: Right, thanks a lot! Never mind, then, see you after the Holidays.
Ellie: Franklin, I really don't want to party with the work guys, just YOU!
Franklin: Oh, wow! I didn't realize what you meant. Well, yeah, let's do something, tonight Ok?
Ellie: Come round about 8, we'll decide then! Bye! 😘
Franklin and Ellie haven't seen each other for a little while. Franklin invites Ellie for a new Years party with his work mates. Ellie is not interested in going out with Franklins colleagues, but would like to party with him. They will meet at 8 tonight.
