オフィスの共用スペースで歯磨きをするヒロキを、アラナは注意します。
Oh, Hiroki, can I talk to you in private?
Just a minute. My mouth is full of toothpaste. OK, what’s up, Alana?
I have a request. Can you stop brushing your teeth over the kitchen sink?
Does it bother you?
Yes, it does. And other colleagues have been complaining about it too. People use this sink to wash their coffee mugs.
Where can I brush my teeth then?
How about using the men’s restroom?
OK. Sorry.
ナミの夫のヨシは減量の必要があるにもかかわらず、コソコソお菓子を食べようとしています。
Yoshi, what’s behind your back?
What? Nothing.
I saw you trying to hide something. Show me.
I’m not hiding anything.
Aha! I knew it! A macadamia nut chocolate chip cookie! So that explains it.
What?
You’ve been gaining weight even though I’ve been cooking healthy meals for you.
Come on, it’s just a little snack.
Do you know how many calories are in this?
It says only 500.
Only!?
レストランで一緒にランチを食べているアラナとヨシの会話です。
All you’re having for lunch is a salad?
Yes, I’m on a diet. I have to lose at least ten kilos.
You’ll get hungry later, though. I know you. Besides, you also need to exercise.
I know. My wife made me join a gym. I hate going there, though.
Why?
The trainer is very strict.
Are you afraid of him?
Her. No.
Then what’s made you cry?
I bit into a hot chili.
顧客から電話があり、アラナがヨシを探しています。
Where did Yoshi go?
He went to the convenience store.
It’s after lunchtime! He’s not supposed to be taking long breaks all the time.
Why do you need him?
I got a call from a customer about one of our products. Only Yoshi can answer the question.
I’ll have him call the customer back, OK?
Great. Here’s the phone number. She sounded kind of angry.
I’ll make sure Yoshi calls her immediately.
Thank you.
