Hey, I just talked to Jim.

ねえ、今ジムと話したんだよ。 volume_up

What did he say?

何て言ってた？ volume_up

He said he had to cancel the meeting this afternoon.

今日の午後の打ち合わせをキャンセルしなくちゃいけないって言ってた。 volume_up

Oh, I see.

ああ、そう。 volume_up

Is there a problem?

何か困るの？ volume_up

No, It's not a big deal. He and I were supposed to talk to some new customers today.

ううん，大した事ないんだけど。今日二人で新しい客と話す事になってたんだ。 volume_up

Sorry to hear that.

わあ、そうだっだの。 volume_up

It's OK. This has been happening quite a bit recently.

大丈夫。最近よくあるんだ。 volume_up

That's strange. I wonder why?

それは変ね。どうしてかしら？ volume_up

His wife has been sick, so sometimes he has to go home early to take care of her.

奥さんが病気なの。だから時々早く帰って奥さんの面倒を見なきゃいけないみたい。 volume_up

I see. How's work been going?

そうなの。仕事の方はどう？ volume_up

Things are slow right now. Would you mind if I borrow your phone, mine's out of batteries and I have to call my boss to tell him about this.

今あまりよくない。電話借りてもいい？私のバッテリーがないんだ。ボスにこの事電話で知らせなくちゃ。 volume_up

OK, let me go get it. Its in the car.

いいよ。じゃ、車にあるから取って来る。 volume_up
