          (door crashes open, sound of a child running in)

          Olivia: Joe! Can you stop that please! Can you please come here and sit down!

          Magda: Hello there, Olivia. Who’s this?

          Olivia: This is Joe – he’s my nephew.

          Magda: Nephew?

          Olivia: My sister’s son.

          Magda: Oh! I see. He’s lovely! I love children...

          Olivia: Yeah, they’re great until you have to look after them...

          Magda: You’re looking after him?

          Olivia: Yeah, just for today, fortunately. My sister can’t get a babysitter. But Joe comes to my shop quite often. He loves it there...unfortunately!

          Magda: Why’s that ‘unfortunate’?

          Olivia: Because he’s a pest, that’s why...

          Magda: What’s a ‘pest’?

          Olivia: Somebody or something which makes you angry...

          Magda: No!! I don’t believe it! He’s so sweet! How old is he?

          Olivia: Four, nearly five.

          (enter Fadi)

          Fadi: Whoooaaaa! Slow down there, little man! Who’s this?

          Olivia: Fadi, meet Joe.

          Magda: He’s Olivia’s nephew. And a sweet little pest!

          Fadi: Oh really! I didn’t know you were Aunt Olivia!

          Olivia: Thank you very much Fadi. You make me feel old. Listen, have you had a chat with Harry yet?

          Fadi: About work?

          Olivia: Yeah.

          Fadi: No, not yet, but I’m supposed to talk to him today. He said he’d be in here later.

          Olivia: Listen, though, it’s not true what Harry was saying...

          Fadi: About what?

          Olivia: About me being upset if he can’t do the website for my shop...I don’t mind if he can’t do it! He wanted far too much money. I could never have afforded it. Now it’s ok, because he thinks he’s turning me down...I don’t have to offend him by saying ‘no’! A happy result all round!

          Fadi: I see...so I don’t have to bail you out, after all?

          Olivia: No!

          (crashing noise in background)

          Olivia: Joe, can you stop that please? Come over here!

          (enter Harry)

          Fadi: ...and here he is!

          Harry: Alright mate! Alright Olivia, Magda...who’s this young man?

          Olivia: My nephew, Joe.

          Harry: Hello Joe!

          (sound of something breaking)

          Harry: He’s very...erm...what’s the word...energetic?

          (laughter)

          Olivia: I just call him “trouble”!

          Harry: So, Fadi, you wanted to talk business?

          Fadi: Yeah, finally...well, I’ve got the all clear from my uncle, so we’re on.

          Harry: Great.

          Fadi: But...

          Harry: There’s always a “but”!

          Fadi: You’re going to have to do us a favour and come down on the price, mate...

          Harry: What price did I quote you?

          Fadi: Two thousand five hundred.

          Harry: Well, seeing as you’re a friend, I could come down to two thousand four hundred, but not less than that.

          Fadi: We can offer two thousand. That’s our top limit. We don’t have a bigger budget than that.

          Harry: Come on! You’re joking!

          Fadi: Sorry mate. It’s two thousand, or nothing.

          Harry: No way. Can’t be done. I’ve got to go now...got to go and see Johnny – he’s offered me a real job...bye all!

          Fadi: Oh no, do you think he’s really upset now?

          Olivia: I don’t think “upset” is the word....

          Fadi: We can go a bit higher actually...I was just trying to be a tough negotiator.

          Magda: A bit too tough, I think.

          Olivia: You should never mix work and friendship, anyway.

          Magda: And you probably shouldn’t have a business meeting in a café!

          Fadi: Oh no. What a mess. I’d better go. Hang on..where’s my...where are my....I can’t find my mobile! Or my keys! Has anyone seen them?

          Magda: Let’s look under the seats...they must be here somewhere...

          Fadi: I can’t see anything.

          Magda: No sign.

          Olivia: How strange...hang on a minute, my nephew’s been terribly quiet for the last five minutes...what’s he up to...Joe!!!
