THE STORY
Saturday night, December sixteenth, twenty twenty-eight, at O'Hare airport, Chicago, about three months after the honeymoon. Daniel and Bia have flown from Rio, through Sao Paulo, and they've been travelling for nineteen hours. The bags from their flight have come round the belt, one by one. Daniel's came out first. The belt has just stopped. Then the lost luggage desk, and the doors to the street, where Tom is waiting in the car. This is the conversation you'll be able to say by the end of the lesson.
