PART 3 · LESSON 23 OF 30 · 40 MINUTES
It Can't Be True
Wednesday the thirteenth of September, three days before the wedding, the band cancels. Say "don't tell me", "it can't be true that…", "at the last minute" and "I didn't want this to happen", and watch Dona Vera, the wedding planner, solve it with "I know someone who knows someone". Then a wrong cake, twenty missing chairs, and a blue door.

THE STORY
Wednesday the thirteenth of September, three days before the wedding. The farm is full. Dona Vera, the planner, has her folders on the kitchen table, Emily is learning to milk a cow, and Daniel is up a ladder, putting lights on the marquee, when his phone rings. It's Ze, the guitar player from the market, whose band is playing on Saturday. That afternoon, a van from the bakery in town brings a cake. This is the conversation you'll be able to say by the end of the lesson.
