Hi mother. This is Sukyung.
I have some bad news.
I don't think I can make it to the family gathering this weekend.
My boss told me I have to go on a business trip this weekend.
I'm coming back Sunday afternoon.
Why don't we go together next time?
How about we go next week?
Or, maybe we could go another time.
Can you tell me what you think? I'm fine with what you decide.
Call me back when you get this. Thanks.
Q: I'd like to give you a situation and ask you to act it out. You have a family gathering this weekend, but you have to go on a business trip. Call your family and explain the situation Also, offer other options.
