You are waiting to board a plane at an airport 1. You are waiting to board a plane at an airport. The flight has already been delayed by two hours. You decide to start a conversation with the person sitting next to you in the departure lounge. People in this story Person 1: a man who were constantly smiling. He started a conversation. He looked like kind, cheerful and a little bit strange young man. Person 2: a man who had a bad mood. He was fat, annoyed and uncommunicative. - Nice weather today, isn’t it? - You must be joking! How can you think about the weather when we have been sitting here already more than two hours?! - It seems it has been hard day for you, hasn’t it? I have some interesting thing for you. Guess what? - Please keep it to yourself, I don’t care what you have. - Come on! Guess which hand? Don’t be shy! Man pulled two clenched fists. - It is getting beyond a joke! Ok, this one. - Apparently, today is really not your day. Unfortunately, you missed. Why don’t you try again. In that moment there was only one clenched fist. - Why don’t you just shut up, idiot. You are driving me up the wall. If you don’t leave me alone I will call the police. You have my word! Young man stopped smiling, took out a gun and said quietly - I think we shouldn’t call the police, they are so busy and might have more important things. Please, make this damn choice… I have a strong feeling that this time you'll have more luck. - Oh my God! You must be crazy! Ok, hell with you, this one. Young man hid his gun, unclenched fist and began to smile as before - Excellent! Well done! You are lucky! Victory! - Candy? For me? Hmm.. Thanks, that’s kind of you. Oh, It is so delicious! …and yes, you are right, the weather is really nice today… The remaining time they sat in silence.
