-Hi mum!

-Hi sweetie! How was the last day of school?

-We did nothing from 8.20 to 1.20, it was fantastic! I can’t believe that now I’m finally free!

-But you aren't completely free, you have to do your homework.

-It’s only a small detail, I will do nothing before Christmas, case closed. Will we do the Christmas dinner at our house like the last year?

-No, we won’t. We will do dinner at your grandmother’s house.

-Finally! The last year there wasn’t even space to move, my legs were locked!

-Yes, it was really uncomfortable, but my legs weren’t locked because I had to cook and to serve the dishes.

-The tablecloth was too much small for the table, do you remember?

-How could I forget? You don’t know how much I was scared.

-No, I know it; it was really funny. I couldn’t stop laughing.

-We had to put two different tablecloths, it was horrible.

-I’m so happy that we’re going to do the Christmas dinner at the grandmother’s house, will there be also Cate and Francy?

-Yes, they will. There will be also your uncles and maybe Samuele with his girlfriend.

-How do you think she is like?

-Your grandmother said that she’s pretty and she doesn’t put any make-up on, I’m curious to see how she’s like.

-Me too. I hope that Cate won’t take her mobile phone or I will stay alone all the time.

-You know that she takes her phone everywhere.

-Unluckily yes, but I hope that she will forget it at home.

-Come on! She will not stay all the time on Facebook, you will have a good time!

-I hope you’re right. What will we eat?

-Always the same. We’ll eat lasagna or broth, meat, mushrooms, spinach and pastries.

-I love the grandmother’s lasagna, it’s delicius.

-I love it too, but I still don’t understand how you always eat two dishes of lasagna.

-Because it is too much tasty to be leaved in the dish.

-If you would eat everyday as the Christmas dinner, you’d be as fat as a whale.

-I’d like it, whales are cute.

-But I wouldn’t like it.

-C’mon I was joking! But I still think that whales are cute.

-Ok. But don’t eat too much, you’re beautiful just the way you are.

-I know it.

-You’re really modest.

-Thank you. Which present did you buy for dad?

-I bought him a pedometer for his bicycle Wednesday, do you remember? You were with me.

-I was with you, but I was looking for my present for him. I think that he’ll like the pedometer, he loves walking and riding the bike.

-I think he’ll love your present too, he didn’t have that Bach CD.

-He loves listening to classical music, but he’ll be angry when he will see the presents, like the other years.

-Every Christmas there’s always the same story, everytime he says that we should’ve not buy presents for him. It’s frustrating!

-For me it’s not frustrating, it’s funny! I can’t wait for Christmas anymore!
