Romantic Love and apologizing
Dialogue Summary
This dialogue teaches the new way to apologise.
The man rode a bicycle to knock the girl over because the tyre explodes. The girl censured the man “watch where you are going“. The man started to apologise and said “I feel terrible, I really didn’t mean to knock you over. It was an accident, Please accept my apologies“ [MUSIC] Then the girl just recognised the man who she had met before. And the man made sure that they had met at Aaron’s place last weekend. What a coincidence. Then the man wanted to leave for a meeting, but the girl said she thinks her ankle is broken. Then the man made a call to cancel the appointment and stayed with her.
