K: Kyle B: Brandy
Brandy and Kyle are talking about the pets they have in their own homes.
K: Hey, Brandy. Guess what? My brother got a new pet snake. It’s really cool!
B: Seriously? Your parents allowed that? I didn’t expect them to say yes.
K: He begged them for a long time. Now we have three dogs, a cat, two turtles, and a snake.
B: That’s a full house. I hope they all get along.
K: Yeah, most of the time they do, but sometimes they fight a little. I still enjoy it, though. What about you? Do you have any pets at home?

布蘭蒂: 真的假的?你爸媽竟然允許?我沒想到他們會答應。
