Mark son una pareja tan bonita Where did you meet? ¿Dónde se encontraron?

I hated boys After that, I didn't see him for 12 years ¿Y cuándo lo viste

viaje al Grand Canyon. Tan romántico. How did you meet Derek? So Victoria,
and how did you meet Derek? Well, these days I own my own store, as you
know. But in the past, I was the manager of Enricos. They sell very stylish
clothes. Derek wanted to buy a shirt, but he discovered that he didn't have
his wallet. What did he do? He was very embarrassed and left the store
quickly. Then what? He came back to the store the next day. He wanted to
ask me out on a date, but he was too shy. Did he finally ask you out? No.
We met later at a party, and I asked him out. Nowadays, we laugh about it.
¿Y tú cómo encontraste a Derek? Pues, en esos tiempos... No, yo
tenía... Ahora tengo mi propia tienda, como sabes. Pero en esos tiempos,
yo era el manager de Enricos. ¿Cómo que es el manager de Enricos?
Encargado. Encargada de Enricos. Ellos venden muy bonitos. Ask out on a
date, se dice invitar, pedir salir. Love at first sight, amara primera
vista. One more dialogue, bumping into someone. Excuse me, but you look
very familiar. We know each other, don't we? You didn't go to Jackson High
School, did you? No, I'm sorry, that's not it. I know, you were in an

liked her work, thanks. I'll tell her. Disculpa, pero me pareces parecida,
conocida. Nos conocemos, ¿no? ¿Tú no has ido a Jackson, a la escuela
superior? No, discúlpame, pero eso no es. Lo sé, estuvimos en un grupo de
teatro hace dos años. Sí, sí. Yo estaba actuando en una pieza y yo no
era muy buena. No, no es verdad. Estabas fantástica. Gracias. ¿Cómo va

Yes, they are different from my old paintings, aren't they? They certainly
are. They are very nice, too. But this other painting isn't yours, is it?
No, it isn't. My friend painted it. She sometimes uses my studio. I can see
it's a different style. Which style does Gary like better? He prefers my
style. He's married to me, isn't he? Me gustaría ver tu trabajo. Ven hacia
mi estudio. ¿Estas son tus nuevas pinturas? Sí, son muy distintas de las
viejas, ¿no? Sí, pero bonitas. ¿Y esta? Esta no es tuya. No. Es de mi
amigo. De mi amiga. Ella a veces utiliza mi estudio. Yo veo que es un
estilo muy distinto. ¿Y cuál estilo le gusta a Gary? Él prefiere mi
estilo. Él está casado conmigo, ¿no? Vale. Entonces, vamos a hacer la
