¨You know,¨ said the woman as she dreamily rested her head against the man´s shoulder, ¨I wish this could last forever.¨

¨Well,¨ said the man nervously, ¨Kickoff time is at 4 o´clock, so maybe we should think about leaving soon.¨

¨I don´t believe you,¨ said the woman angrily raising her head.

¨Sorry,¨ said the man nervously, ¨but how much longer do you want to stay?¨

¨Well, not too much longer,¨ said the woman more gently, ¨because that Julia Roberts movie is on tonight and I don´t want to miss the beginning.¨

The man sighed.
