The next day, on the phone
LL: Sorry to bother you so early. There's another couple who wants to rent the apartment, but I thought I'd ask you first.
Beth: That's so sweet of you. We definitely want it.
LL: I thought so, by the looks on your faces when you left. So why don't you come to my apartment, and we'll settle all the details.
