Story

María Juan. "¡, Juan! ¿ ?" Juan : ", . ¿ ?"

María calls Juan. "Hello, Juan! Are you at home?" Juan says: "Yes, here I am. Why?"

María : " . . . ¿?"

María says: "It is a very good day. I do not want to be at home all day. I want to do something. Are you coming?"

Juan , : "¿ ? ¿ ?" María . " ... , , ."

Juan wants to go, but he says: "What do you want to do? Where are we going?" María thinks. "I do not know... We can talk, look at things, pass the time."

Juan : " , . ¿ ?"

Juan says: "We can do all that here, at my house. Are you coming or not?"

María : "¡Juan! ... ¡ !" Juan : ", . ."

María says: "Juan! That is being at home... again!" Juan says: "Yes, it is true. But my house is better."

María : ", ... ¡ !"

María says: "Well, yes... I am coming now!"

: . buen .

And that is how the two of them spend the day: they talk and pass the time at home. A good day.
