keiko : You’ll never believe what I just heard. Ella and Alan split up.
Anna: Again? That’s a real on again, off again relationship.
keiko : Yes, but this time I hear it’s for good.
Anna: what happened?
keiko : Rumor has it that she told Alan she was tired of him spending all his time with his friends instead of with her. And he’s upset because he heard that she had been seeing someone else behind his back
Anna: but she hadn’t, had she?
keiko : No. But Stacy told him that she had seen Ella with another guy.
Anna: I thought Stacy was supposed to be Ella’s best friend. What a backstabber! Why would she bad-mouth Ella like that?
keiko :Isn’t it obvious? She said it because she like Alan. She’s hoping he’ll ask her out. But that’ll never happen because he’s hung up on someone else.
Anna: He is? Since you have all the gossip, do you know who he’s interested in?
keiko : If I tell you, you can’t tell him I told you.
Anna: OK. Who is it?
keiko : You really don’t know? Haven’t you noticed how he’s always finding an excuse to talk to you? It’s you!
