Ryan: Hi Zara! You're home! You look very tired. Are you okay?

Zara: Hi Ryan. Yes, I am home. But oh, I am absolutely exhausted now. My work day is finished, but it was very, very busy.

Ryan: Oh dear. So you feel tired now? Not good?

Zara: Yes, very tired. The work is okay - no big problems. Just... constant phone calls, emails, meetings... My head feels full! But I am happy my work day is finished.

Ryan: I understand. My day is good! My big project is finished! I feel really happy!

Zara: Oh, fantastic! That's brilliant news.

Ryan: I feel great! But I am a little bit hungry now. All that work makes me hungry!

Zara: Me too! I am starving! And very thirsty. Can we just have something easy for dinner tonight? Maybe order a takeaway?

Ryan: Excellent idea! What do you want? Pizza? Or maybe Chinese?

Zara: Pizza sounds perfect right now. Easy, quick, and delicious! Let's get pizza. That makes me feel happy!

Ryan: Great! I have the menu. You sit down and relax!
