December 1th - Everyday Conversation

1- Take as much time as you need

Storyline:

** What would you say when you are very busy with something and can't just put it aside even though your wife is calling you?

Your wife : Anselmo , can you come downstairs for a minute right now?

You : I'm sorry I can't. I'm tied up with something urgent at the moment.

Your wife : Oh, are you on the stupid net again? When are you going to get off?

You : Just a minute, Darling! I'm looking at a new clothes site. I wanna make sure I get the right gift for your birthday, don't I?

Your wife : Oh? In that case, I'm sorry to bother you. Take as much time as you need.

You : No problem.
