M: Will there be enough money for me to go abroad?
W: If you want to do this, you are going to need to get a scholarship or financial aid. I will continue working but until your father gets another job, money is going to be pretty tight. We don’t want to go bankrupt because of this!
M: I’ll see what I can do. I can probably find a second job.
W: You’ll need more than a second job, honey. Part-time jobs will not pay enough for you to pay your tuition and room and board. How about a scholarship?
M: There’s no way that I can get a scholarship -- my grades aren’t good enough. I’m failing my business course. Why did I let daddy convince me to get a business degree?
W: You know, your father just wanted the best for you. Don’t blame him for just wanting to help you.
M: Let me see what I can do. I’ll talk with some of my friends to see if they have any ideas.
W: Alice? I’m sorry, honey. I know that you wanted to go abroad this summer, but I think you’d better change your plans until we get back on our feet again.
M: Yeah, I know. I’ll call you when I figure out something.
