#Person1#: Hi Kevin!
#Person2#: Hi Laura, long time no see! What have you been up to lately?
#Person1#: Not much. I can assure you. And you?
#Person2#: Much the same except I do have some big news.
#Person1#: Come on. This suspense is killing me.
#Person2#: No, really, what have you been doing these past few weeks? The last time I saw you, you were looking for a new job.
#Person1#: Well, that's not exactly true. I was thinking about changing jobs. Luckily, they offered me a new position in the accounting department.
#Person2#: A step up in the big business world.
#Person1#: I wouldn't exaggerate, but I am pleased. I had been hoping to get a promotion for a while. So when it finally came through, I was relieved. Actually, that's why I was looking for a new job. I just didn't want to work there anymore if they weren't going to recognize my efforts.
#Person2#: Right, sometimes you can do your best and it seems like the others don't know you exist. I hope the money's better.
#Person1#: I got a reasonable raise, now enough about me. I'm dying to hear your news.
#Person2#: I am getting married.
#Person1#: No, you said you'd never get married.
#Person2#: That was then and this is now. You've got to meet Andrea, she's great!
#Person1#: This is all news to me. I didn't even know you were dating.
#Person2#: We weren't. We've just been dating for two weeks now.
#Person1#: And you getting married?
#Person2#: I know. I can't help it. I just know she's the one.
#Person1#: Well, congratulations! That's fantastic!
#Person2#: Thanks, I'm glad to hear you feel way.
