Hi, Pinky!
Hi. What's up?- Nothing much. Everything is fine.
- Actually, I need a favour from you.
- Yeah, tell me. What's it?
- You know, my bike broke down yesterday. It's in workshop, and it will not be ready before evening.
- I urgently need to go to CP for some important work. I can take an auto, but it's going to take very long.
- Can I borrow your scooter for a couple of hours?
- Sure, by all means.
- I don't need to go anywhere right now. So you can take it.
- I might need it in the evening, though.
- Ah, yeah, don't worry.
- It'll take me not more than a couple of hours.
- I should be back by … latest by 4 p.m.
- OK. Here is the key.
- Thanks, Pinky.
