M: Well, I'm rather busy at the moment, Joan. Is it urgent?
W: Uh,yes, I'"I' m afraid it is. It' s personal matter.
M: Oh, well,then we'd better discuss it now. Sit down.
W: Thank you. Uh---you see, it's about my husband. He..uh...well...He...
M: Yes, go on, Joan. I' m listening.
W: He's ill and has to go to hospital tomorrow. But we have a young baby, you know.
M: Yes, I know that, Joan. You must be rather worried. Is it anything serious? Your husband' s illness, I mean?
W: The doctors say it' s just a minor operation. But it has to be done as soon as possible. And...well...the problem is my daughter. The baby. That' s the problem.
M: In what way, Joan? I'm not quite sure if I understand.
W: Well, as I said, my husband 'll be in hospital for several days, so there' s nobody to look after him.
M: You mean, nobody to look after your daughter, is that it?
W: Yes, exactly. Both our parents live rather far away, and...and that' s why I' d like to have a few days off. From tomorrow.
M: I see. I think I understand now. You need a few days off to lock after your daughter while your husband is in hospital.
W: Yes, yes. That's it Will...will that be all right?
M: Yes, I' m sure it will, Joan. All I want to do now is make sure that there' s someone to cover for you while you' re away. Uh...how long did you say you'll need?
W: Just a few days. He...my husband, I mean...should be out of hospital by next Thursday; so I can be back on Friday.
M: Well, perhaps you' d better stay at home on Friday, as well. Just to give your husband a few extra days to rest after the operation.
W: That's very kind of you, Mr. Sherwin.
M: Don' t mention it.
