Scene 1: Luis and Natalia celebrating their 1-year anniversary by going out to eat
Natalia: Mmmmm, don't you just love my pasta?
Luis: Eh, it's ok.
Natalia: Well, do you like your pasta?
Luis: It's ok.
Natalia: I don't get it. When I make you spaghetti at home you think it's the greatest thing since sliced bread. But when you order pasta at restaurants, it's always just ok?
Luis: You don't understand, spaghetti and meatballs is soooo good!
Natalia: Fine, I'm going to make you spaghetti and meatballs everyday until you get sick of it.
Luis: (with a huge smile on his face) Really?
Scene 2: Luis is walking out the door on his way to work in the morning and Natalia is getting ready to apply for a bunch of jobs she is either overqualified or underqualified for.
Luis: Ok, I'm leaving
Natalia: What time should I expect you for dinner?
Luis: Um, I'm not sure. I'll let you know.
Natalia: Sounds good. By the way, we are having spaghetti for dinner every night this week just like you wanted.
Luis: .... oh, um, ok :-/
Scene 3: The apartment later that evening as Luis walks in the door from work
Luis: Honey, I'm home!
Natalia: Oh, hi. ....Here's the thing. Dinner isn't ready yet. I was on the phone with my mom so it is going to be another 15 minutes.
Luis: Ok... that's fine.
Natalia: Um, we have a situation... I haven't gone grocery shopping yet this week which means we have no vegetables and no bread. So we are literally only having spaghetti and meatballs for dinner.
