Lesson68 Persistent
I crossed thestreet to avoid meeting him, but he saw me and came running towards me. It wasno use pretending that I had not seen him, so I waved to him. I never enjoymeeting Nigel Dykes. He never has anything to do. No matter how busy you are,he always insists on coming with you. I had to think of a way of preventing himfrom following me around all morning.
'Hello, Nigel,' Isaid. 'Fancy meeting you here !'
'Hi, Elizabeth,'Nigel answered. ' I was just wondering how to spend the morning-
-until I saw you.You're not busy doing anything, are you ?' ' No, not at all,' I answered.' I'mgoing to.. .'
'Would you mind mycoming with you ?' he asked, before I had finished speaking. ‘ Not at all,' Ilied, 'but I'm going to the dentist.'
' Then I'll comewith you,' he answered.' There's always plenty to read in the 'waiting room !'
