Video Call script

Artem: Hey, it's the weekend. Are you home?

Artem: Me? I'm at the famous pastry shop on Orchidshine Street. They've got some new pastries. I sent you photos of them.

Artem: Pick out the ones you like and I'll bring it over.

Artem: It's no trouble. Your place is on the way home. But if you'd like to go shopping, Orchidshine Street is a great choice.

Artem: It's the Venice Cultural Week here. Many Venetian craftsmen are here, so it's lively.

Artem: I walked around the booths just now. There were artisans making stained-glass paintings and performing artists dressed up as sculptures to trick tourists.

Artem: What's amazing is that the event organizers shipped several gondolas over from Venice. Visitors can buy tickets at the pier and take a gondola tour of Stellis River.

Artem: Yeah, gondolas are the little boats from Venice that have been around for over a thousand years.

Artem: If it weren't for this event, you'd have to go to Venice to ride in one.

Artem: Well, you coming? Hmm? You want to ride in a gondola with me?

Artem: Of course I will. How can I say no to you? Besides, this is a rare opportunity that I can't pass up.

Artem: Then let me know when you're ready. I'll send a car over.

Artem: I'll go buy the tickets first. The line for the gondola is really long.

Artem: Right, don't forget to take a look at the pastries. We can eat them on the gondola.

Artem: See you in a bit.
