Short conversation between two friends funny incidents
Danielle: Hey Luke, Is that you?
Luke: Oh my god, Danielle! How are you?
Danielle: I’m fine. It’s been a long time. I had no idea you were coming to this party.
Luke: I know. We last saw each other at my sister’s wedding.
Danielle: Yes, and Since we both went to college in different states, it was hard to find time to meet up during our breaks
Luke: I told you to study business with me, but you prefer machine learning. Even two best friends are having difficulty getting together.
Danielle: I know, but see, now we are both here. Do you recall our prank streaks when we competed to see who was the best prankster?
Luke: Yes, we were severely punished for this.
Danielle: That’s because you were always determined to succeed, even if it meant getting into trouble. I still remember the fire alarm incident in school.
Luke: Yes, I vividly recall the expressions on our professor’s faces.
Danielle: Thankfully, It was assembly time, and no one was in the school building.
Luke: See, I mean no harm to anyone.
Danielle: True that. You’re just trying to stress out our professors.
Luke: Yeah, those incidents were really funny. All those memories still put a smile on my face.
Danielle: Exactly; after all, you were the great prankster.
Luke: I agree, but you were no saint either.
Danielle: Why are you saying that?
Luke: Did you forget that everyone freaked out when you mixed Kool-Aid in the staff room coffee maker?
Danielle: Yes, I remember, and it was a lot of fun, but as your best buddy, I was only keeping your legacy alive so you didn’t get all the punishments alone.
Luke: Oh, please. You, too, want to be known as the best prankster.
Danielle: I hate to admit that, but it’s true.
Luke: I still find it funny how naive we were to think these things would make us cool.
Danielle: We were cool. Everyone at our school liked us.
Luke: That’s somewhat true—everyone in our school liked us except our professors.
Danielle: Exactly, do you remember when, during our final semester, you tried to frighten Mr. Robinson, our math instructor, and ended up having a cast on your leg?
Luke: Dude, In my excitement, I fell down the stairs, but you should see his face.
Danielle: You should have seen his face when you fell and he burst out laughing.
Luke: That’s precisely right; that’s very cruel of him.
Danielle: Well, you started it, and you know what they say about karma—you reap what you sow.
Luke: At least Mr. Robinson and I had a good laugh.
Danielle: Yes, but the only difference is that when Mr. Robinson started laughing, you had already sprained your leg.
Luke: Yeah, I miss high school; we had so much fun there with our friends.
Danielle: True, high school was great, and I would give anything to relive those moments.
Luke: So, since we are both in town, why not visit our old school and meet our professors?
Danielle: That’s a great idea; let’s go.
