Frank: Hi, Kate! Look, I'm sorry but I won't be able to come to your party tomorrow.
Kate: Hi, Frank. Why not? You promised! It's not just a party, it's my birthday.
Frank: I know, and I'm sorry. But my grandmother's coming for a short visit. She'll only be staying with us for one day. And then she'll be in hospital for a week as she needs some heart treatment.
Kate: Oh, yes, I understand. I'm sure she'll be fine.
Frank: Yes, she will. And have you got any plans for tonight?
Kate: No, I haven't yet. Any suggestions?
Frank: How about the pizzeria? They've got some new things on the menu and it's the closest place to eat.
Kate: Oh, no. I love pizza, but I've been to the pizzeria four times during this week. If it goes on, I won't be able to wear any of my jeans.
Frank: I don't think you should worry about that as long as you keep doing athletics. Even watching all that running and jumping on TV helps burn extra calories.
Kate: I wish!
Frank: Anyway, walking my dog is another idea for the evening.
Kate: Oh, Frank, you have a dog? I never knew.
Frank: I only got him a week ago. It's a long story I'll tell you some other time.
Kate: And what's your dog like? Something large and powerful like a bulldog?
Frank: No. I've always liked huge, smart dogs; that's true, but mine is nothing like that. It's just a small, silly puppy.
Kate: Oh, I like cute puppies! I want to see him. What time do you usually walk him?
Frank: At seven in the morning and I'm more flexible in the evening. He likes walking in our park.
Kate: In the morning and in the evening? I don't think it's enough. He needs a walk around lunchtime too.
Frank: Yes, but I can't do it more often unfortunately. So, when and where shall we meet? Our usual meeting place at the bus stop is not a very good choice now. There are too many people there and my poor puppy may get frightened.
Kate: I'll be waiting for you both at the park entrance at seven.
Frank: Fine. We'll get some takeaway there.

It's just a small silly puppy.
