Awake for the Phone, Asleep for the Test

Wei: Hello, is this the eye clinic on King Street?

Receptionist: Yes, it is. How can I help you?

Wei: I’d like to book an eye test, please.

Receptionist: Of course. Could you give me your name?

Wei: Wei. W-E-I.

Receptionist: Thank you. And can I have your phone number?

Wei: Yes. It’s six, two, four, nine, double zero.

Receptionist: Got it. When would you like to come in?

Wei: Could I come this week?

Receptionist: We have Thursday at four o’clock.

Wei: Thursday is okay. But can I come a little earlier?

Receptionist: The first test of the day is at nine. Is nine okay?

Wei: Nine is perfect. Thank you.

Receptionist: Great. We’ll call you the day before to remind you.

Wei: Please don’t call before nine. I sleep late.

Receptionist: Of course. We’ll call at... nine.

Wei: Then I’ll be awake for the phone, but asleep for the test.
