M: Hi, Emily! (12-1)I hear you're leaving for Italy soon. Do you plan tohave a going-away party before you disappear?It’ll be really nice for us tohang out together before you go.
W: I'm not sure. I'm leaving in just two more days, and I'm going to miss all my friends here and especially this place. Why don't you come over? (13)I'm feeling rather sad, actually. I'm currently sitting alone at a table outside the Black Cat Cafe, listening to the rain and watching people passing by.
M: I am sorry. (14)I can't just now. I need to get this assignment finished by Monday, and I'm way behind. Anyhow, cheer up! You're not leaving for good. And you'll absolutely love Italy.
W: Yeah, you're right. But I just feel like I'm not quite ready to go. (12-2)And studying in a foreign country seems a bit overwhelming.
M: Just think of your life in Milan. In the mornings, you can go down to a smalllocal cafe, soaking up the sun’s rays and drinking coffee. I envy you. You canbuy lots of gorgeous Italian clothes.
W: That does sound nice. And of course I can keep in touch with everyone through Facebook. Maybe you can all come visit me.
M: Of course we will. When is your flight?
W: On Saturday, after lunch, at 1:45.
M: Okay, (15)I'll try and come to the airport on Saturday to see you off. I'll give you a call that morning, no matter what.
