A Meeting in London | Leer Engels A1

13. Emma and James look at each other and both smile about the slow waiter. "Lucy told me about you," Emma starts. "She says you like books." "Yes, I love books and read every day," James responds. "What about you?" James leans forward.

14. "Yes, I like to read," Emma says. "I read at night." She makes a gesture. "What do you read?" James asks. "I like mysteries. Detective stories. Sometimes I read art books for work." Emma enjoys talking about books.

15. The waiter brings their drinks. He moves like a snail. The coffee smells good. Emma puts sugar in her coffee. One spoon falls on the table. "Oh no!" The sugar goes everywhere. "It's okay! I do this often," James says. He helps clean the sugar.

16. They laugh together. The ice is broken. "Where do you live?" James asks. "I live near Hyde Park. It is beautiful but full of joggers. They run everywhere!" Emma makes a running motion. "Where do you live?"

17. "I live in Shoreditch. My flat is tiny. So tiny!" James holds his hands close together. "When I open the door, I hit my bed!" They both laugh. "Do you live alone?" Emma asks. "Yes, alone. Well, with my cat. His name is Hemingway."

18. Emma's eyes get big. "I have a cat too! His name is Picasso." She is excited. "Picasso! Perfect for an art teacher." James likes the name. "Is Hemingway a good cat?" Emma asks. "No! He is terrible. He sleeps on my computer keyboard. He writes strange emails!"
