Dialogue

Good morning, Jane. How are you? Good morning, Helen. Pretty busy this week. There is no time for loafing. Really. What are you busy with then? The firm “The Wedding Wizards” I’m working at secured an important order. It is to design a wedding ceremony of a famous person. That sounds like a big job! Yeah, we have a lot to do. We are to find a place which will perfectly fit for this ceremony. Then we should arrange everything there according to the style the bride has chosen. You know, tables and chairs, table cloths and napkins, flowers and all that stuff. Besides, we should custom a design of a wedding cake. By the way, I’ve heard that you are a perfect confectioner. Am I right? Yes, you are. Can I be of any help to you? I’ll help you if I can. You can. Here is the description of a wedding cake. You are to put it into life. Mmm, let me see. Three layers of yellow sponge cake filled with smooth, rich vanilla butter-cream decorated with lots of pink flowers and bright butterflies. I’m afraid I won’t be able to do all that by myself. I will have to get one of my assistants to do part of this work. It doesn’t matter whether you do bake and decorate the cake alone or with the help of your assistants. We’ll be glad for any help from you. You once did me a good turn, Jane, and we’ve been good friends ever since. How can I refuse to help you now? Oh, Helen. You are very helpful. Thank you very much. No need to thank me. I am just glad to help out my old friend.
