. I am very sorry but I was in an accident, I fell on my motorcycle. But don't be sad I have a brilliant idea, I spoke with Kate and she wants to go with you. She loves movies. I think you know Kate but if not it will be a great opportunity to know her. She is great, you will see, I am sure you will not regret it. She is very smart and funny and what's more, she loves Star Wars just like you. I think you both are sci-fi geeks. She works as a software developer so you both have a lot in common. I am looking forward to hearing from you. Best wishes
