Read together
Sam: The living room looks crowded. Can we slide the sofa toward the window?
Lee: Careful of the carpet. Lift the corner so it does not fold.
Sam: The floor lamp is tipping. Hold it while I move the table.
Lee: Put the armchair by the bookcase. Guests like that corner.
Sam: Where should the television face? Straight at the sofa?
Lee: Yes. Hang the picture a little higher above the clock.
Sam: The plant needs light. Near the lamp or by the window?
Lee: Window. The floor lamp is for evening reading, not for leaves.
Sam: Books go back on the bookcase — no stacks on the carpet.
Lee: Deal. Soft light, clear path, and the sofa where people can talk.
Sam: One more thing — dust the table before the snacks arrive.
Lee: Already wiping it. This living room finally feels open again.
Talk about it
Reflection
What did they move first, and where did the plant end up?
