What have you planned for this weekend?
I have planned to stay indoors. According to the weather forecast, it will pour.

That is something I’ve also learned. So, what do you usually do indoors when the weather condition is extreme?
I enjoy reading and watching movies. I sometimes invite friends over for dinner and play board games.

That sounds amazing! This weekend, why not have one of those evenings?
Hmmm… I’m not sure. We already played quite a lot of board games last weekend, so I’d be happy to sing karaoke this time.

Okay, I guess it will be a weekend karaoke night! What kind of outdoor activities will we do if the weather cooperates?
We can play badminton in our lawn. I already did my household chores, so my parents will allow me.

That’s a fantastic idea! It’ll be a lot of fun.
Then we have just made a deal. I’m excited for this weekend!
