What’s your name again?
Nick! How’s it going?
Oh, hey...
What are you doing in this neighborhood? Do you live around here?
Actually, my office is right around the corner.
It was great to meet you last week at the conference. I really enjoyed our conversation about foreign investment.
Yeah, yeah, it was really interesting. You know, I’m in a bit of a hurry, but here’s my card. We should definitely meet up again and continue our discussion.
Sure, you still have my contact details, right?
You know what, this is really embarrassing, but your name has just slipped my mind. Can you remind me?
Sure, my name is Ana Ferris. Don’t worry about it; it happens to me all the time. I’m terrible with names too.
