     Lucky, on the phone, jumped on the road, pushed the YUSHA from being hitten by a passing
               car. The bag with the showpiece gift tumbled to the ground.
               Are you okay?
               Yusha: Just fine I think. Thank you so much, Thank God!
               Lucky: Please take care. You’re sure you’re alright?-
               Yusha: Yes I’m fine, thank you very much! I don’t know where I was looking.
               Lucky: Don’t know. Take care next time.
               Garja: Lucky? What was that noise?
               Yusha: I was busy talking with my boss, she got retired and I’m carrying this gift for her only.
               How inconsiderate of me-
               Lucky: It’s alright!
               Garja: Answer me right now!
               Yusha: I mean, Thanks to you, I saved my life!
               Lucky: Oh! Never mind.
               Garja: Okay, Lucky. Very funny. I said no talking back and now you’re not talking at all.
               Yusha: My gift also fell.
               Lucky: You’re just lucky it was me, else no one cares on this digital busy planet.
               Garja: If you’re playing games with me right now I’m going to kill you.
               Yusha: But it’s really shameful of me, who doesn’t look straight ahead when they’re walking
               somewhere! Again. I’m awfully sorry.
               Lucky: Let me help you pick all this stuff up. By the way, this showpiece gift is very beautiful
               and attractive, I liked it. (Picks up the gift and bag).
               Yusha: Aw. Do you like it? Thank you!
               Lucky: Hey. There’s a lot I could criticise about you.
               Yusha: Yeah, like what.
               Lucky: where were you looking when you were walking down the roadside? Don’t you see or
               feet of the l car passing or coming towards you?
               Garja: Hellooooo?
               Yusha: All right, all right, it was my fault. (Looks down at groceries) Aw. Look at my gift.
               Thank god! Not broken at all.
               Garja: Lucky, I swear, you are-
               Dial tone.
