Rohit : Why don’t we go and see it?
Atul : When do you intend to go?

Rohit : Let’s go there tomorrow afternoon.
Atul : Not a bad idea, but I have to take permission from my parents first.

Rohit : Definitely. But I have already taken permission.
Atul : Okay then, I shall inform you in the evening.
Rohit : Very good. I shall wait for your call.

Now, work with your partner and discuss about visiting the museum next Sunday.
