You are so stubborn, I have nothing to say with you. :Lucy
Lily: Maybe you are right.
Could you tell me what makes you feel so? :Lucy
Lily: Actually, I don’t really think they are useless. I just don’t know how to apply them.
I get it.You just need to take the first step, for example, by asking questions. :Lucy
Lily: That’s a good idea. I thought you would argue with me. After all, we don’t get along well.
Even though I don’t like you, I ’m willing to consider your point of view.:Lucy
Lily: You set a good example for me. I get it now.Thanks
