Nora: Oh, hey, John!
John: Hey!
Nora: You seem to be on top of the world tonight. What’s up?
John: I’m so happy I’m about to burst. Guess what?
Nora: You’ve got me.
John: It might be true that misfortunes never come singly, but you can also have a “double blessing”. And that’s what I had.
Nora: You mean you’ve had two happy events in your life?

Nora: Congratulations! You’d failed it three times. Now wonder you’re beaming. What’s the other good news?
John: The multinational I was dong my field project at offered me a job at a good staring salary.
Nora: Wow, wonderful, simple wonderful.
John: I feel like celebrating. Shall we go to a bar?
Nora: Why not?
