The Noisy Neighbours
Timothy Psst! Joann! Joann! Wake up.
Joann Huh? What? What's the matter? It can't be seven o'clock already?
Timothy No, It's 1:30. It's those people next door again. Listen!
Joann Oh, yeah. They must be having another party.
Timothy They must be waking up the whole block. And they have three
children. Those kids couldn't be sleeping through that racket. It's
disgusting! Somebody should call the police! loann They're all laughing. They must be having a good time. They never
invite us, do they?
Timothy Joann!
Yes, dear. What is it now?
Timothy Listen! They must be leaving.
Joann At last! Maybe we'll get some sleep.
Timothy I hope so. It's nearly three o'clock. Good night, dear. Oh, no! Now
they're having a fight.
loimn That figures. They always have fights after parties.
Timothy Uh-oh! They must be throwing the dishes again.
Joann No, I think that was a vase, dear, or maybe the TV set - or both!
Timothy Joann! Listen. There's someone in the backyard next door, loann Huh? It must be a cat.
Timothy No, it can't be. It's too loud.
Joann What time is it?
Timothy It's quarter to five. Who could it be? I'd better take a look. Ooh! It's
Howard, and he's carrying shovel.
Joann Really? You do not think he's killed her, do you?
Timothy Well, we haven't heard her voice for a while. No, she's probably
sleeping.
Joann But what could he be doing at this time of the morning?
Timothy If he has killed her, he might be burying the body!
Joann What! You do not think so, do you?
Timothy He couldn't be planting tomatoes, could he? I am going to ask him
what he's doing.
Timothy Hello there, Howard. You're up bright and early this morning.
Howard I haven't been to bed yet. We had a party last night. I hope we did not keep you awake.
Timothy Oh, no, no. We did not hear a thing, nothing at all. I slept like a log.
Howard Well, it was a pretty noisy party. My wife knocked over the kids' hamster cage while we were cleaning up. The poor hamster died. I am burying him before the kids wake up.
