D: Dan  J: Joy

Dan sees a traditional tea set when he and Joy are shopping at a mall in Vietnam.

D: Look at this tea set! It looks so beautiful and traditional. I’m thinking about buying it.

J: It is lovely, but it seems a bit expensive. Don’t you think?

D: I know, but I really want to take home something special from Vietnam. This tea set just feels right.

J: Well, if you really like it, go for it. Just make sure you’re OK with the price. We might find something similar later.

D: Yeah, I think I’ll buy it. I don’t want to regret missing out.
