Beatrice: | Alberto, hai visto che bella giornata oggi? |
Alberto: | Spettacolare! Con questo bel sole, viene voglia di lasciar tutto e andare fuori. |
Beatrice: | Hai ragione, sarebbe proprio il caso di fare una bella passeggiata. |
Alberto: | Attenta Beatrice, qui la gente non passeggia, cammina a passo svelto o tuttalpiù corre. |
Beatrice: | Hai ragione Alberto. Sai, a cuore aperto confesso che mi mancano molto le passeggiate. |
