At Table Today is Vlad’s birthday. His friends are coming to his place in a few
minutes. His parents and his brother are out. They have gone to see Nina’s
new apartment. Now Vlad and Lena are laying the table.
Lena: Look, Vlad, is everything in order?
Vlad: Everything is perfect! The flowers are really wonderful!
Lena: No, I mean, do you like the way the dishes and glasses are
arranged?
Vlad: Yes, of course! Now let’s bring in the salads.
Lena: All right, but before will you show me where the knives,
forks and spoons are, please?
Vlad: They are in that cupboard behind you.
Lena: Thank you. Now everything is ready, to my mind.
Vlad: Why don’t we bring in the main course?
Lena: I think we’d better wait till the guests arrive.
Vlad: Aha! Someone is ringing at the door!
Vlad and Lena go to welcome the guests. Stepan, Igor, Ilya,
Misha, Olga, Ann, Masha and Veronica enter the apartment all
together.
Happy birthday to you, Vlad!
Many happy returns of the day!
Vlad: Thank you, guys! Come in, please.
Stepan: Vlad, Lena, this is Ann.
Vlad: Hello, Ann.
Lena: Nice to meet you, Ann.
