2-- good morning, Nathaniel. This is Leah calling from the International Student Office.
1-- good morning.
2-- the reason I'm calling is because Ms. Collins will not be able to call you back until next week.
1-- oh. I had hoped she would have called me back yesterday.
2-- she's terribly sorry about that. She had to leave the office suddenly and won't be able to returen until next week. She hopes you understand.
1-- is there someone else I can talk to?
2-- she asked me to call you to book an appointment with someone else today. When are you free today?
1-- any time after 2 pm today would be good for me.
2-- Mr. Liu is available at 2:15 today. Will that work for you?
1-- I'd prefer to speak with Ms. Fonda.
2-- I'm afraid she isn't available this afternoon. She has an opening at 11:30 this morning. Will that work for you?
1-- that will be fine.
2-- ok, we'll be expecting you at 11:30. See you then.
