I want to play a trick on Andy. Do you think you can join me ?" " I do not really like games or jokes. They usually turn nasty. I don't want to annoy Andy. We are very good friends. Last six months in London we supported each other. If anything goes wrong we may lose the friendship. By the way, What is your joke? something childish," " Not really, I heard that 'He is having an affair with Judy' at his office," Jack s...
