The next day. Susan and Michelle are setting the table for dinner.

Michelle:I love my school. I have so many good friends there now. I wouldn't miss a day even if I were really sick.

Susan:Come and sit down for a minute, Michelle. I'd like to talk to you about something. Something important.

Michelle:What's wrong, Susan?

Susan:Oh, there's nothing wrong, Michelle But your daddy and I are talking about something that I'd like your opinion about.

Michelle:I know. I heard you talking about it the other night when I was trying on my new clothes.It's about moving to Los

Angeles.

Susan:You're right How do you feel about it?

Michelle:Well, I really wouldn't want to move, but…

Susan:But?

Michelle:But if you and Daddy wanted to, I guess you know what's best for the family and for me.

Susan:That's very considerate of you, Michelle. But what about your friends?

Michelle:I'd miss them a lot,but I know what it feels like to miss someone.

Susan:Honey, we don't have to move if you're not going to be happy about it.

Michelle:Does Daddy want to move?

Susan:think so. He's going to tell us tonight about the job offer.

Harry:I met with Bill York.

Susan:It's OK to talk about it, Harry. Michelle knows all about it.

Harry:Really?

think you should take the job, we're behind you.

Harry:What about Michelle's school?

Susan:We'll move after the school term.

Harry:What about her new friends?

Susan:Harry, you didn't turn it down14 because of me…

Michelle:Or me?

Harry:No, no. I turned it down because of me.

Susan:How's that?

Harry:Well, I began to think about you and about Michelle, and then I asked myself, do I really want to work for the biggest

company in the country?

Susan:And?

little pond.I'm not really sure I want to be a little fish in a big pond.
