Pete: Good morning, Petra! Just about this afternoon - I woke up with a terrible cold today. So on account of Michael I'd better stay away from you all today. Sorry about that!
Petra: Oh Pete, I feel sorry for you! And very considerate of you. The last we need is Michael developing a cold again.Thank you.
Pete: But pls call me afterwards to say what it was like.
Petra: Sure I'll do. Take care!
Pete's got a terrible cold. He won't come this afternoon. Petra will call to tell him what it was like.
