The husband received a call from his boss demanding immediate work and planned to spend time together. The wife suggests staying later and agrees to make it work, but the husband worries about work getting in the way of his plans.
human
Ugh, I just got a call from my boss.
gpt
What did he want?
human
He wants me to come into work immediately.
gpt
Oh no, that's disappointing. We had plans for the day.
human
Yeah, I was really looking forward to spending time with the family.
gpt
Do you think you'll be able to finish work quickly?
human
I hope so, but I don't know what my boss wants. It could take a while.
gpt
Well, if you need to stay later, we'll understand.
human
Thanks, I appreciate that. It's just frustrating because it seems like work always gets in the way of our plans.
gpt
I know, but we'll make it work. Maybe we can do something fun later tonight when you get home.
human
That's a good idea. It reminds me of when I accidentally brought down a social networking site and couldn't do anything for hours.
gpt
Oh yeah, I remember that. That was a frustrating day too.
human
It was. But at least this time, I can control how quickly I finish work and come home to be with you guys.
gpt
Exactly. We'll make the most of the time we have together. And hey, at least our walls are bare and white now instead of outdated and ugly wallpaper.
human
Ha! That's true. Silver linings, right?
