datingCharacters:Heather(female)and Kevin(male)Setting:In a pizza restaurant(Two young people,both freshmen in a small mid-western college of the United States,are sitting in a pizza restaurant.They have ordered their pizza and are talking while they wait for it.)Kevin:Hey,girl,come on.Good to see you.Heather:How are you?Kevin:What happened today?Kevin:Thats fine.So what do you want to order?You like the pepperoni,yeah?.(to the waitress)Ok.So two Greek islands,one egg tort and one chill juice and milk.Thank you.Heather:Do you realize that weve been together for two months now?Who would have thought that when we happened to sit next to each other in Asian history class it would lead to this!Kevin:Yeh,and this is a real change for me.Heather:Oh?You didnt date anyone steadily in high school?Kevin:No,I didnt.I was too busy with sports.My high school was so small that any of us who liked to play and wanted to could be on almost all of the teams.I played football in the fall,basketball in the winter,and baseball in the spring.Heather:But youre not playing football this fall.Kevin:No,Im going to try out for baseball in the spring.Thats what I like the best.So,when a very interesting and intelligent girl happened to sit next to me in Asian history,I decided it was time to date some if she was interested too.(He smiles broadly)Heather:Im glad you did.(She returns a smile)Kevin:Did you date much in high school?Heather:Yes,I did.In fact,I had a steady boy friend for almost two years.Kevin:What happened to him?Heather:During our senior year we both decided that since we were going to attend college in different parts of the country we should stop dating.I guess we realized that we were really quite different from each other.He wanted to get away from home,so hes in a large university out East.I wanted a small college near home,so here I am.Kevin:Lucky me!So were your parents happy with your steady boy friend?Heather:They liked him ok,but I know they thought we spent too much time together.I think they were happy when we broke up.They really didnt say much though.They usuallytrust my judgment.Kevin:Had you dated much before that?Heather:A little,for school parties,movies etc.,nothing serious.I usually spent more time with the girl friends.My parents didnt think I should date until I was sixteen.Kevin:Yes,I think some kids do start dating too young these days.My sister,she is fourteen now and thinks she has a boy friend.My parents tell her shes really too young to date,but they think ifs ok if she goes out in a group where hes included.Heather:I guess you were around guys most of the time with all of your sports activities,but you seem comfortable being with me.Kevin:Well,I did date occasionally,but I didnt find anyone really interesting until now.He laughs meaningfully Besides,I usually have to spend most of my money keeping my old car running.Heather:Would it help if we go Dutch tonight?Kevin:No,after all I invited you.Besides,I had a really good job at the gasoline station near my home last summer and was able to save up quite a bit for nights like this.So,its my treat!Heather:Ok.Thafs nice of you.Kevin:After we eat,are you willing to drive around the lake with me and just talk some more?Or would you rather go to a movie?Heather:Its a beautiful night so lefs go for a drive.I dont think wed like the movies that are on anyway.They5re all just too silly.Kevin:Fine with me.Oh,here comes the pizza,so lefs eat.(to the waitress)Thank you.Thank you.Episode U A Chinese way of datingCharacters:Da
