CONFERENCE INTERRUPTED

• PEPE - Good evening Mrs. Pilar, how are you today?

   

• PILAR - Fine, thanks, who is calling?

   

• PEPE - I´m Pepe, don´t you remember me?

   

• PILAR - Yes, you should be, Mr, Pepe from Ayanet.

   

• PEPE - Oh yes,  you have an excellent memory. I would need to talk urgently with Mr. Smith.

   

• PILAR - Oh, I know, but at this moment it is impossible because he´s in a meeting.

   

• PEPE - Well I understand, but it is important for him that we  talk at this very moment.

   

• PILAR - I´m going to try to phone him, but he doesn´t  usually answer the telephone.

   

• PEPE - Yes, yes I understand, but I´m sure what I have to say  to him it´s so crucial, that he doesn´t mind my interruption in the meeting.

   

• PILAR - You are getting me into trouble. I don´t know…

   

• PEPE - Yes, but it is a question of life or death, if I don´t speak with him just now, the consequences will be terrible. And I´m not allowed to speak more, you know?

   

• PILAR - Well, in five minutes the meeting will finish and I´ll connect with him. Then you can talk whatever you want.

• PEPE - Ok, I wait your call.
