Daniel: Hey, May, look, Is that the the poster of the movie we saw yesterday?

May: Yes, that’s right. That’s the poster of the “The Witch”.

Daniel: May, I really regret watching it with you last night.

May: Did it scare you?

Daniel: Of course not. I just thought the movie was…boring.

May: Boring? Come on, you clutched to my arm all the time.

Daniel: Well, I admit. The ghosts were scary.

May: I like scary movies.

Daniel: That’s Gucci’s influence. I love science fiction movies!

May: Of course you do. They are silly stories just for little kids like you.

Daniel: Don’t call me kid. I am a grownup.

May: Do you dare watch scary movies with me tonight?

Daniel: Of course! I can watch them without you!

May: Oh, really?
