I love books!

That sounds fun!

I like books too.

What about you?

I like The Hobbit.

It is a good adventure story.

Yes, it is!

Do you come to this coffee shop often?

Yes, I come here every Saturday. Do you?

Sometimes. I like their coffee.

It is very good!

I agree!

Do you want to sit together?

How’s work going?

That sounds nice.

Maybe we can go to the gym together one day.
