  1. Them

    Hi, welcome back. Did you forget something?

  2. You

    I think I left my scarf here about an hour ago.

  3. Them

    Let me check the lost and found. What does it look like?

  4. You

    It's dark blue, wool, with a small pattern on the end.

  5. Them

    I have a grey one and a blue one here.

  6. You

    The blue one — that's mine. Thank you so much.

  7. Them

    You're welcome. We hold things for two weeks, by the way.

  8. You

    That's good to know. Thanks again for keeping it.
