Episode 43: My family are very traditional
Olivia: Hey Harry! How’s it going?
Harry: Not bad thanks...
Olivia: Are you a millionaire yet?
Harry: Eh? What? Oh...Fadi’s “FindLondon” business.... Actually it’s going pretty well – we’ve set up a website and now we’re taking lots of enquiries, there’s a lot of interest. But I’m only an investor, you know – it’s not my real job...
Olivia: Sounds even better - if you can make money without working!
Harry: Yeah! I guess that’s the plan. That’s Fadi’s plan anyhow! But – as your friend Magda says – there’s more to life than money...
Olivia: Well, that’s certainly true...
Harry: I mean, I want to spend more time with Bindyu – that’s what makes me really happy...
Olivia: Why don’t you just go out more together?
Harry: Well, we see each other most days...but it’s not that...
Olivia: What is it then?
Harry: I’d like to take our relationship a bit more seriously...
Olivia: But?
Harry: But she doesn’t want me to meet her parents...
Olivia: Oh. I see. Why not?
Harry: That’s just it – I don’t know really...I think she’s embarrassed by me, or ashamed of me...or something...
Olivia: No! That can’t be true! Why do you think that?
Harry: I don’t know – perhaps I’m not rich enough, or successful enough...you know, I’m just an ordinary London guy...anyhow, I must be off now – if you see Bindyu let her know I was looking for her!
Olivia: Will do! Bye!
Bindyu: Hey there!
Olivia: Hello! Oh…Harry was just in here looking for you...
Bindyu: I knew it...I meant to catch him – but just missed him!
Olivia: He was talking about you, actually...
Bindyu: Oh yeah? All good things I hope...
Olivia: Yes...but...
Bindyu: But? You mean there’s a “but”?
Olivia: Yeah....he thinks you’re not taking the relationship as seriously as he wants..
Bindyu: Oh no...that’s not true...why does he think that?
Olivia: He thinks you don’t want him to meet your family...
Bindyu: Oh...I see......It’s not that I don’t want him to meet my parents, it’s just that it’s ...
Olivia: What?
Bindyu: It’s just difficult, that’s all...
Olivia: Why?
Bindyu: Well...you know...we’re so different...from different backgrounds...and my family are very traditional....
Olivia: I see...still, perhaps you should try...
Bindyu: Yeah – maybe you’re right. I’ll try...
