They Asked Me to Bring

In mid March, Sarah and Julian take the night bus to Mexico City for their visas at the Spanish consulate, and of course, something is missing. Say they asked me to bring, nobody told me to, talk about documents, appointments, stamps and insurance, hear an official from Spain, and spend the night at the hostel where it all began.

THE STORY

It's Tuesday, March 16th, in Mexico City. Sarah and Julian took the night bus from Oaxaca, and at ten in the morning Sarah is at the window of the Spanish consulate, with a thick folder of papers. Julian's appointment is right after hers. The official has very short hair and very precise glasses, and she's from Spain. This is the conversation you'll be able to say by the end of the lesson.
