The Weekend - Buying Jewelery

Shop assistant: Good afternoon, sir, is there anything I can help you with today?

Mark: umm… yeah!I’m looking for a nice gift to give my girlfriend.

Our fifth anniversary’s next Friday.

Shop assistant: Well, I would be happy to assist you in choosing the perfect gift for her. Is there anything particular that you have in mind?

Mark: No, not really… I’m completely at a loss.

Shop assistant: Well, you can give her a set of pearl earrings, or this beautiful heart-shaped pendant. What

is her favorite gemstone?

Mark: That purple one. I’m

sorry…I’ve never bought jewelery for anyone and I’m kind of nervous.

Shop assistant: Don’t worry, we specialize in providing our customers a relaxed, pressure-free shopping environment. That stone is an

amethyst. We have a range

of beautiful amethyst pieces.

Take a look at this bracelet. It’s 18K rose-gold, studded with

amethyst and blue topaz. It’s a great statement piece.

Mark: Oh…wow. That’s really pretty.

Jess would love that. But…

I was thinking of something a

little more delicate, perhaps a necklace?

Shop assistant: We have this beautiful platinum pendant, or you

could also get her a locket.

You could also get her a

timepiece—it’s both glamorous yet functional. If you tell me a little more about your

girlfriend, maybe I can help

you find something for her.

Mark: Jess? Well, she’s very smart, and has a great sense of humor. She’s very feminine…

Shop assistant: Perhaps you could give her a ring?

Mark: Well…actually…I was thinking about asking Jess to marry

me…I’ve just been so nervous.

Shop assistant: Well sir, I believe your fifth anniversary is a great time to propose!

Mark: Okay, I’ve decided. I’m going to pop the question!

Shop assistant: Fabulous! We should look at engagement rings then! Now

that’s a whole other section.

the next six months.
