Meeting Sarah

Tom was drinking coffee at a small café when he saw a familiar face. It was Sarah, his friend from school! They hadn't seen each other for five years.

"Sarah! Is that you?" Tom asked with a big smile.

"Tom! Oh my goodness!" Sarah was very happy to see him. They sat down together at a table.

They talked about their lives. Sarah worked as a teacher now. Tom was an engineer. They told each other stories about their families and their jobs. Sarah got married last year. Tom had moved to a new city three months ago.

After one hour, they exchanged phone numbers. "Let's not wait another five years," Sarah said with a laugh. Tom agreed completely. They left the café as friends again.
