Anna: Josué, this place looks lovely. But I'm not sure if they have any available
tables. Should we ask the waiter?

Josué: Good idea, Anna. Let's call the waiter over and find out.

(Waiter approaches the table)

Waiter: Good evening, folks. How can I assist you today?

Anna: Hi there. We were wondering if you have any tables available for two?

Waiter: Of course, madam. We have a few options available. Would you prefer a
window seat or something more private?

Josué: Window seat sounds great, don't you think, Anna?

Anna: Yes, let's go for that, please.

Waiter: Alright, I'll prepare your table near the window. Please follow me.

(Anna and Josué follow the waiter to their table near the window)

Josué: Can you lend me the menu?

Waiter: Sure, sir!

Anna: Josué, this menu seems quite extensive. I'm having a hard time deciding.
How about you?

Josué: I'm a bit confused too. Let's ask the waiter for some recommendations.

(Anna raises her hand to get the attention of the waiter)

Waiter: Yes, how can I assist you?

Anna: We're having trouble deciding what to order. Could you suggest some popular
dishes?

INTERNAL
 Waiter: Absolutely! Our chef's specials are highly recommended. The seafood pasta
and the grilled steak are quite popular among our guests.

Josué: That sounds good. What do you think, Anna?

Anna: Seafood pasta does sound tempting. Let's go with that.

Josué: Agreed.

Waiter: Excellent choice. I'll make sure to prepare your seafood pasta. Is there
anything else I can assist you with?

Anna: I'll have a glass of white wine, please.

Josué: I'll go for a bottle of sparkling water.

Waiter: Very well. I'll bring those along with your order. Is there anything else I can
assist you with?

Anna: No, thank you. We're all set.

Waiter: Alright then. Your food and drinks will be served shortly. Enjoy your evening.

(The waiter leaves the table)

Josué: Anna, you won't believe the gossip I just heard about Eduarda!

Anna: What? Tell me, I'm curious!

Josué: Well, I heard that Eduarda is dating the new engineer at Carese.

Anna: Seriously? But she just ended a relationship!

Josué: Yes, exactly! It seems like she wasted no time and already found a new love.
They were seen together at Área Restrita, very close.

Anna: Wow, Eduarda doesn't waste any time! I hope she's happy in this new
relationship.

Josué: Well, let's see how things unfold. But you know how gossip is, right? There's
always a bit of exaggeration in it.

Anna: Definitely, but it's always fun to hear these stories. Let's see if Eduarda will tell
us more about it.

Josué: Agreed! We'll keep an eye out for updates and, of course, continue feeding
our love for gossip!

INTERNAL
 Anna: Oh, Josué, you're terrible! But I confess, I love sharing these stories with you.

(Anna and Josué smile as they continue discussing the gossip and enjoying their
meal)

(After enjoying their meal)

Josué: That was delicious. Now, let's ask for the bill.

(Anna raises her hand to get the attention of the waiter)

Waiter: Yes, how was your meal?

Anna: It was excellent, thank you. Could we have the bill, please?

Waiter: Certainly. I'll bring it right away.

(The waiter brings the bill and places it on the table)

Josué: Shall we split it, Anna?

Anna: Yes, that's fair. Let's split it equally.

(Anna and Josué calculate their shares and place the money on the bill tray)

Anna: Josué, I had a wonderful time. The food was delicious, and the gossip was
impeccable.

Josué: I'm glad you enjoyed it, Anna. It was a great choice. We should come here
more often.

Anna: Definitely. Let's make it a plan. Shall we?

Josué: Absolutely. It's a deal!

(They smile at each other as they prepare to leave the restaurant)
