Getting Over a Fight 


Alisa: Don’t be mad. 


Sabir: I’m not mad. 


Alisa: Yes, you are. I’m sorry. I admit it was my fault. Will you stop moping now? 


Sabir: I’m not moping. I’m giving you the silent treatment. 


Alisa: I knew it! You’re still peeved 1 at me. What can I do to make it up to you? 


Sabir: You can leave me alone. 


Alisa: If I leave you alone to stew 2, you’ll replay the whole incident in your head and the next thing I know, you’ll hold a grudge 3 against me. Won’t you just forgive me so we can move on? 


Sabir: What you said wasn’t just a slight. It was an out-and-out insult. 


Alisa: I know it was and I’m truly sorry. I’ll buy you lunch at your favorite restaurant to show you how contrite 4 I am. 


Sabir: And you won’t say it again? 


Alisa: I promise I’ll never tell you again in front of your friends how much you look like Elvis – in his later years.
