Michal: Helen, this place is enormous!
Helen: It's just a house, don't get so overexcited by it. And promise me you won't treat me differently after this visit.
Mum: Hello! Just drop your bags anywhere dears. Michal, will you get daddy in from the garden? Then we'll all have a nice cup of Chinese tea together.
Michal: Of course.
Mum: Oh Helen, he's adorable! I know I said you were too young for love but that was ages ago and it's a woman's perogative to change her mind.
Helen: Mum, I think he's the one!
Mum: Oh me too, I watched you two coming up the path and I saw how you looked at him. Do I hear wedding bells?
