Vikki: Hi Shannon.

Shannon: Oh Vikki, You startled me. Eh, it’s good to see you. What are you doing in this part of town?

Vikki: I had to do some Christmas shopping and I decided to checkout your uptown boutiques. Downtown stuffs are all the same and many are not good quality.

Shannon: Are you going on a trip or something?

Vikki: Yes. My boyfriend and I are going to see his family for the first time. He invited me over to his parents’.

Shannon: Well, that’s a big step, eh?

Vikki: I don’t know. He’s old fashion and wants us to be acquainted before we get more serious, if you catch my drift.

Shannon: Got ya. So, what do you want to get her parents?

Vikki: I don’t know. What do you recommend?

Shannon: Well, let’s check out a couple of boutiques this way…
