IV. Speaking Out

MODEL 1   Is youth wasted on the young?

Amy: I’d like to talk to you, so stop what you’re doing for a minute.

Bill: What is it, Amy? I’m having a hectic 1 time working on this report for tomorrow’s meeting.

Amy: Well, you’re always pretty busy, and it’s been more five years, almost six, since we were married.

Bill:  Yes, time has gone so fast, but they’ve been good years.

Amy: I know, but I want to have a baby—I want us to have a baby.

Bill:  I know you do. But remember, we said we’d wait until we could afford it.

Amy: But five years is a long time to wait. Anyway, it’s long enough.

Bill:  I’m this close to getting a promotion 2.

Amy: What has that got to do with it? We could wait forever if we wait for the “perfect” moment. Soon we’ll be too old to enjoying having a baby.

Bill:  You know, you have a good point. This report can wait. I’ll do it tomorrow morning. Let’s open a bottle of wine and enjoy ourselves.
