  VERB TENSES

Lucy was walking her dog in the park one morning when she ran into Roger.

 She hadn’t seen Roger for years, since they had broken up.

They had gone out for only six months back in 2004, but Roger 

had left her for a reason she had never discovered.

So, today, when she was walking in the park, she was very surprised 

to see Roger.

 “Hi, Roger!” she said.Roger looked at her and said, 

 “Oh, hi Lucy. It’s been a long time. 

How are you?” “Oh, I’m fine.” said Lucy. “I was just walking my 

dog in the park.”

“What have you been doing the last few years?”, asked Roger.

“Oh, you know.” said Lucy. “The usual things. I’ve been

 working,  getting married, having children. Normal things that

 everybody does. 

And you? What have you been doing?”

“Oh, not much. I’ve been living with my parents this whole time.”

“Are you working?”

“No, I’m not. I’m looking for a job. The company I was working 

for closed last year.”

“Well, that’s interesting,” said Lucy.

“So… Do you want to go get a coffee?” asked Roger. 

“I’ve got some time before my mother expects me back at home.”

“No, thanks,” said Lucy. “My children are waiting for me at home. 

I’m going to make lunch. It’s good to see you, though.”

“It’s good to see you, too.”

Lucy turned and walked away. Her dog followed her, and Roger 

watched her until she disappeared among the trees.
