A¡G Hey! You are late! We have been waiting for you over two hours!

¡@
¡@

B¡G Sorry! It¡¦s just an accident!

¡@
¡@

C¡G Accident? What¡¦s the accident? You are always caught up by lots of accidents!

¡@
¡@

B¡G Oh! Please trust me! There was very big traffic jam! It blocked my car almost three hours!

¡@
¡@

A¡G We have been listened to this reason three time. I don¡¦t want listen to your excuse! Let¡¦s go to the comic exhibition! It starts at 10:00. We must hurry up!

¡@
¡@

C¡G Yes~!! Don¡¦t waste our time! Let¡¦s go!

¡@
¡@

B¡G Err¡K How to go there?

¡@
¡@

A¡G Dear me! I forget to bring the map! How can we go??

¡@
¡@

C¡G Oh my god! We have only 30 minutes to go there!

¡@
¡@

B¡G Ann¡K I think I know! When I left my home, I ever asked my sister how to go there!

¡@
¡@

A¡G Thanks god! Tell us quickly!! We have no time to waste!

¡@
¡@

B¡G Let me think¡K We must take bus to get there. The stop we get off is exactly the exhibition. 

¡@
¡@

C¡G Then¡K What bus should we take?

¡@
¡@

B¡G Err¡K Let me think¡K Maybe take 301 or 802, perhaps 299 or 235; there are so many possibilities¡K

¡@
¡@

A¡G Quick!! Give us a practical answer!!

¡@
¡@

B¡G 299!! We must take 299!!

¡@
¡@

C¡G Are you sure?

¡@
¡@

B¡G Mmm¡KI think we can take 235¡K

¡@
¡@

A¡G Poor you, you don¡¦t know anything!  (A shows his middle finger.)

¡@
¡@

B¡G Excuse me. Don¡¦t show your middle finger to me!! It¡¦s insult!

¡@
¡@

C¡G A, that gesture is very offensive. You see B is angry!

¡@
¡@

A¡G I ¡¥m angry, too. Because of her, we will probably be late and miss the opening

      ceremony which is the best part of the exhibit.

¡@
¡@

B¡G Yah, A is right.

¡@
¡@

C¡G It¡¦s almost 9:40!!

¡@
¡@

A¡G We must ask someone direction!! Look!! Here comes a handsome man!! I¡¦ll go to ask him!! 

¡@
¡@

A¡G Mister, how can we go to the comic exhibition?

¡@
¡@

D¡G Sorry, I¡¦m new here. I can¡¦t help!

¡@
¡@

A¡G Thanks, anyway. I can ask someone else. Bye-bye!

¡@
¡@

A¡G I feel bad, you know, when people reject you. 

¡@
¡@

C¡G Well, everybody has the same problem as yours. You just learn more social skills!! Here comes another man. Let¡¦s see how B talks to him and get help from him.

¡@
¡@

B¡G Excuse me, sir. Could you tell me how to go to the comic exhibition? We must get there before 10:00.

¡@
¡@

D¡G OK~! Take bus number 303. It takes you 10 minutes or so to get there.

¡@
¡@

B¡G Thank you very much! You help me a lot.

¡@
¡@

D¡G You¡¦re welcome! It¡¦s my pleasure!

¡@
¡@

B¡G See! Simple like that! But I think it is because the man is a local and he¡¦s

      familiar with the city.

¡@
¡@

C:   Talking to strangers is not that kind of horrifying.
