N: Cindy, why are we here at the train station?
C: Yoriko said, we shall meet here at the train station and go to the Okinawan restaurant together.
N: They might have gone ahead.
C: Why?
N: Oh, sorry. I forgot to tell you that I told them to go ahead of us.
C: The arrangement is messy.
N: We are already late. Let's take a taxi.
C: Mr. driver, just go straight north and when you get to the third traffic light, please turn left.
N: They've been wanting to go there for a long time to eat Goya Champuru, Rafute and lato!
C: Are you okay? You look pale.
N: Hahaha, I'm pale because of hunger.
C: See… if you didn’t mess up the arrangement, we should be eating now.
N: You’re right.
C: My stomach is also rumbling because of hunger.
N: Wait, isn't the taxi running in the wrong direction?
C: It seems so. Why are we going north? We should be heading south.
N: Oh, I guess the driver got confused about the direction. We keep saying the word "kita".
C. hahaha the taxi driver will earn more because of us.
