T: Are you going home right away? If you have time, how about having some tea here befor you
go? I have something I would like to discuss with you.
H: What is it?
T: The Yamanaka's have just had a new baby and I would like to give them a gift.
H: Is that right? I haven't heard anything about it. When was it?
T: It was last Monday. It was a boy.
H: Well then, let's go discuss what to give them.
T: If it's not crowded, why don't we go in that coffee shop over there?
H: O.K. there'll probably be planty of room.
T: Oh, there's lots of room. Let's sit over there. What'll you have?
(The waitress comes. Tamura orders coffee, and Hayashi, ice cream.)
H: Ice cream would be fine. If they don't have it, I'll have tea.
T: What do you think would be good? If it were a girl, a doll would be nice. But what would be
suitable for a boy?
The Yamanaka's have had a baby boy and Tamura and Hayashi are discussing what they should give them as a congratulatory present.
