kartina: I notice that you’ve been coughing
bella: I’m sorry if my cough disturbs you
kartina: No, it doesn’t at all. I’m just concerned about your health. Are you okay?
bella: Actually, I feel sick. I keep coughing and my head is killing me.
kartina: Maybe you should go home and have a lie-down.
bella: I want to go home so bad, but I have to finish this report today.
kartina: Is there anything I can do for you, like getting you an aspirin or a cup of tea?
bella: I think an aspirin will do.
kartina: I’ll get it for you.
bella: Thanks.
