Tairo: こんにちは、山田さん、元気ですか?
Yamada: 元気です。(*1)でも、おなかがすいています。
Tairo: なんで?食べ物をかったほうがいいですよ。
Yamada: さいふを持っていないから、なにも買えません。
Tairo: ああ、そうですか。どこにありますか?
Yamada: たぶん (*2)、家にあると思います。
Tairo: さがしましょう。
Yamada: だめ、(へやが)きれいじゃないです。
家にかえってから、さいふを投げました。(*3)
Tairo: ええ、本当。 (*4)
Yamada: はい。昨日は怒りました。(*4)
*1: When you can replace the phrase with 'no problem', you can say 'だいじょうぶです'. In this context, だいじょうぶです sounds a bit off, because Tairo asked 'how are you?'. Or if Tairo asked him 'are you alright?', then you can keep だいじょうぶです, and instead modify the Tairo's asking into 'だいじょうぶですか?'
*2 じゃぁ is generally a counterpart of 'then'. たぶん means 'maibe' as you've a;ready known.
*3 What happned to Yamanda!? He threw away his wallet after he had come home!? For what??
*4 I can't keep up the story, but grammatically these phrases are legit. I think your next entry will show us the whole storyline.
By the way, I think you wanted name the guy TARO, a japanese guy's typical name. All the best!
