Danny   : Yeah, you once told me about it. How’s it going ?
Adi         : (1) I feel ashamed last week. So there was this native speaker from America. I confidently tried to converse with him. I think I did quite well, until he asked me, “ Do you like watching the tube ?”
Danny : And a bit losing you here...
Adi : I said, “We don’t have any tube here in Jakarta”.  And then he said, “Are you sure? I think almost every house has at least one tube now.” Then, it just clicked me. He wasn’t talking about”the tube”, but he was talking about “the tube”
Danny : Oh, I see...
Adi : (2) Im very embarrased
Danny : Hmm...I think that was fine. He must understand that you’are still learning.
Adi : Actually, he thought it was quite funny and offered me to practice speaking more topics afterwards.
Danny : (3) Lets go, then !
