Power outage

Elizabeth: I think the power just went out.

Jung-woo: Really? I thought you just turned out the lights.

Elizabeth: No. Try turning on the bathroom light.

Jung-woo: It isn’t working.

Elizabeth: What about the bedroom light?

Jung-woo: Nope. That’s not working either.

Elizabeth: Hmm, okay.

Jung-woo: Oh, I just got a text from the electric company. It says that the power will be out for an hour.

Elizabeth: Ugh, all right. That’s not too bad. It’s time to light the candles!

Jung-woo: It’s good that we have a lot of candles. We can have a romantic dinner!

Elizabeth: Ha ha. Yes we can! Oh, John just texted me. He said the power is out at his house, too.

Jung-woo: Oh, really?

Elizabeth: Yeah. I’m surprised. He lives three miles away!

Jung-woo: I wonder what happened.

Elizabeth: I don’t know. But dinner is ready! Let’s put a couple more candles on the table so we can see what we’re eating.

Jung-woo: Good idea! We don’t need any more surprises tonight.

Elizabeth: Oh, I just got a text from the electric company. It says the power outage was caused by balloons touching the power lines.

Jung-woo: Oh really?

Elizabeth: It also says the power will be out for at least two hours.

Jung-woo: Wow. I guess we will have a romantic dessert too!

Elizabeth: Yep, I guess so!
