Grandfather: Tracy! It's so good to see you! What a blessing your college is close to where I live!
Tracy: Hi Grandpa! I'm sorry I didn't come earlier. It's been a really busy month.
Grandfather: Well, come on in! I hope you are hungry. I've made us some hamburgers.
Tracy: Oh, your hamburgers are the best. And I'm starving!
Grandfather: Follow me into the kitchen then!
Tracy: Oh my God, Grandpa, you are limping! Did you fall?
Grandfather: No. It's just my foot. It hurts. I don't know why. It's been two weeks already.
Tracy: I hope you are doing something about it.
Grandfather: Yes, mam! I go to the gym every day and exercise. I also swim every other day. And I sometimes jog in the evening. But it hasn't helped yet.
Tracy: What I actually meant was - did you tell your doctor about it?
Grandfather: No, it's so difficult to make an appointment these days, you know. You give them a call, they put you on hold, you wait for an hour and never get through anyway!
Tracy: Don't you have an app on your phone to schedule an appointment online?
Grandfather: I do, but I can't figure it out.
Tracy: I don't believe you, Grandpa! You love technology!
Grandfather: I do, but… I really don't like doctors, Tracy. All they do is give you medicines that never work.
Tracy: Actually, they could send you to a physical therapist who would show you the right kind of exercises. It might really help!
Grandfather: OK... How's the hamburger, by the way?
Tracy: Oh, it's perfect! Thank you, Grandpa!
Grandfather: Here's the app.
Tracy: Oh, good! Let's see… They have a free time today at 3 o'clock!
Grandfather: No! Not today!
Tracy: How about tomorrow at 4:30?
Grandfather: Sure! Tomorrow at 4:30.
Tracy: I'll go with you! I'll take you there.
Grandfather: What about your college? Aren't you busy?
Tracy: It's spring break. I'll definitely go with you!
Grandfather: You are so tricky!
Tracy: I've learnt it from you, Grandpa! Remember how you took me to doctors when I was little?
Grandfather: So, it's your revenge! Well, I guess I've deserved it. However, my tricks were different!
Tracy: You're right! So, let's try again. Hey, Grandpa, would you like to eat out tomorrow?
Grandfather: I sure would! Where will we go?
Tracy: I will let you decide. Will it be Fuji Sushi restaurant or Italian Gelato Icecream?
Grandfather: Oh, they sound so good! Could we do both?
Tracy: Of course! I'll make reservations for 6 and 7 pm.
Grandfather: Good!
Tracy: I'll pick you up at four.
Grandfather: Why so early?
Tracy: First, we'll go say hello to a nice lady doctor. It won't take much time.
Grandfather: Ha-ha! You've mastered it, Tracy! You are the best grandkid anybody's ever had! Want some banana bread for dessert?
Tracy: Sure, grandpa!
