An Invitation to Dinner
The day before yesterday, Mr. Smith received a letter which he did not open till after his breakfast. The letter contained an invitation to dine with Mr. Allen the following evening, and afterwards to go to the cinema.
As there was very little time to answer, Mr. Smith immediately took his pen, ink, and paper up to his room and answered accepting the invitation. He decided to walk to the nearest post office to post the letter before going to his work, but, as he was leaving the house, it commenced to rain very heavily; he therefore remained at home and waited for it to stop raining.
It rained for half an hour without stopping, so Mr. Smith called a taxi
The bad weather lasted a few minutes longer. The rain stopped just before Mr. Smith arrived at the post office; as he wanted to continue on foot, he walked the rest of the way.
Last night at the appointed hour, Mr. Smith called for Mr. Allen. They dined at a very good restaurant where they tasted strawberries for the first time that year. Mr. Allen did not want any cream with the strawberries, so he asked the waiter for a little wine to go with them. The waiter poured the wine on the strawberries and asked Mr. Allen if he liked them. Mr. Allen answered "Yes" and asked for the bill.
The two gentlemen then jumped into a taxi because they did not want to arrive late at the cinema. At the cinema, the usherette looked at their tickets and pointed out their seats. After the show, as it was a beautiful night, they walked home.

Dia memutuskan untuk berjalan ke kantor pos terdekat untuk mengirim surat sebelum pergi ke tempat kerjanya, tetapi, ketika dia meninggalkan rumah, hujan mulai turun; Karena itu ia menetap di rumah dan menunggu hujan berhenti.
Hujan turun setengah jam tanpa henti, jadi Tuan Smith memanggil taksi
Cuaca buruk itu berlangsung selama beberapa menit lebih lama. Hujan berhenti tepat sebelum Tuan Smith tiba di kantor pos; karena dia ingin melanjutkan dengan berjalan kaki, dia berjalan di sepanjang sisa perjalanan.
Tadi malam pada jam yang ditentukan, Tuan Smith memanggil Tuan Allen. Mereka makan di restoran yang sangat bagus di mana mereka mencicipi stroberi untuk pertama kalinya tahun itu.

Pelayan menuangkan anggur ke atas stroberi dan bertanya kepada Tuan Allen apakah dia menyukainya. Tuan Allen menjawab "Ya" dan meminta total tagihan.
Kedua pria itu kemudian naik taksi karena mereka tidak ingin tiba terlambat ke bioskop. Di bioskop, penjaga pintu melihat tiket mereka dan menunjukkan tempat duduk mereka. Setelah pertunjukan, karena itu adalah malam yang indah, mereka berjalan pulang.
