“Don't take it too far, Mrs. Suresh.

The distance by flight to Belgium from Christchurch was 6 hours and he considered it too far away.“Why are you going to Belgium when they have a campus in Birmingham?”“That is the campus I was posted to.”“Maybe it is because she applied late,” her mother chipped in.Nevertheless, he composed himself and complimented her, “Congratulations.”“Thank you, Supervisor, for your understanding.”“You are welcome,” he said and ordered his food.While eating, he

Why is he with the government?” Laura asked after she found her bearings.To her despondency, her parents were lost in their different thoughts that they did not hear her.

“Oh my God! You proposed that I should shift my birthday from Saturday to Monday. Now you have forgotten.”“Oh, my goodness! Pardon my forgetfulness, Your Majesty. Happy birthday in advance.”“Thank you for your wishes. But promise me that you will be around on Monday.”“A slave has no time of his own and cannot make promises with it. I will be around if my boss permits me.”“Oh! I remember.”“Goodbye for now.”“Bye,” they said simultaneously.He walked into the elevator and sent a message to George.(We can continue the speech writing at home.
