10 They Said, We Said 4 Conversation Anna: Farah: Hello. رابط الدرس الرقمي www.ien.edu.sa Anna, I'm so glad I found you. You'll never believe what I just heard. Ella and Susan had a huge argument and split up. Anna: Farah: Anna: Again? That's a real on again, off again friendship! Yes, but this time I hear it's for good. What happened? Farah: Rumor has it that Ella told Susan she was tired of her Anna: Farah: Anna: Farah: talking about herself and her problems and never wanting to listen to her. But the real reason was that she was really upset because she found out that Susan had been talking about her behind her back. But she hadn't, had she? No. But Stacy told Ella that she had heard Susan talking about her. I thought Stacy was supposed to be Susan's friend. What a backstabber! Why would she bad-mouth Susan like that? Isn't it obvious? She said it because she wants to become Ella's friend. But that'll never happen because we'll set things right! We're going to talk to Ella and tell her that Stacy was lying. And we'll do it in front of Stacy. Anna: We will? How are we going to do that? Farah: Oh, no. I don't want to do that. You're better at this sort of thing. I hate confrontation. Anna: Farah: Anna: Farah: Anna: Farah: But we need to confront Stacy with this. If we don't, she'll do it again. And it's not right for Ella and Susan to fall out over a lie. They'd have gotten over that other issue about listening to each other but not this. Would you forgive me if you found out I had talked about you behind your back? Absolutely not. Have you? Anna! This is not about us. It's about Ella and Susan; they've been friends since kindergarten. Well, so have we. OK, OK, Let's do it! Great! I'll call you back later with more details.
