Read together
Lea: Hi! I did not know you would be in this hall today.
Max: I came to return a hammer. Half the shelf fell; we fixed it.
Lea: Hard work. Is your hand okay?
Max: Fine. Happen that I also found my old hat behind the box.
Lea: You hate that dusty hat — or do you have a soft spot for it?
Max: I used to hate it. Today it made me happy. He — my brother — left a note inside.
Lea: What did he write?
Max: Welcome back to the weekend projects. We have more shelves to build.
Lea: Then keep the hammer handy. I will help if you need a second hand.
Max: Deal. Happy work beats hard work alone.
They spoke once more to be sure every word felt clear and useful.
