How’s it going? 10 hours after leaving your sweet abode in Hawaii, I finally made it to Tokyo. You won’t believe the journey I had. I got pulled aside at the airport in Japan and was asked all sorts of questions, in JAPANESE! I guess they thought I was illegally entering the country. Of course, I wasn’t doing anything illegal, but I have to say I don’t think I’ll be traveling again anytime soon. It was very traumatic and I felt humiliated. Anyhow, I just want to say thank you for letting me stay at your apartment. It was the greatest trip I’ve ever had! What’s more, I was able to save lots of money! Next time you come to Tokyo, please let me know. You’re always welcome to stay at my place. Looking forward to seeing you soon again.
Love, a very traumatized Ann

Hi, Emma! Do you like watching horror movies?

Hello, Ron. Absolutely! Most movies on my list on Netflix are horror movies.
|
Same here! I’m always mulling over the list of horror movies on Netflix!
|
|
That’s very relatable, Ron! What’s the scariest movie you’ve ever seen?
|
For me, the “Insidious” trilogy has by far the most frightening film I’ve watched.
|
|
I agree with that. That’s actually on my list, but I prefer to watch
old-school horror movies more. They’re classics!
|
Really? That’s interesting, Emma. Do you have any recommendations for me to binge-watch?
|
|
I love Stanley Rubrick’s “The Shining”! It was a 1980s horror film.
A classic indeed!
|
I’m now getting more curious! Could you tell me about it?
|
|
It is a psychological horror film and an adaptation of Stephen King’s
book. I really love book-to-movie adaptations. I think they are exciting because you’re watching to see if the movie has given justice to the book.
|
Makes sense! I’ll add that to my list!
|
|
Let’s watch classic horror movies like that some time. There’s a newly
opened movie house in the city.
|
Sure! Just hit me up the date and time.

Alright. I’ll just text you. See you around, Ron.
