A: John speaking.

B: John, my name is Terry Evans. I have good news for you.

A: I'm all ears. What is it?

B: Your rental¹ application has been approved. The owner thinks you'll be an excellent tenant².

A: Oh, that's so good. It makes my day.

B: Now, before you move in, you have to pay some fees.

A: Fees, what are you talking about?

B: You know--first and last month's rent, and the security deposit.

A: Oh, of course. When you said fees, I was thinking of parking fees or something.

B: Mail it to 3035 E Foothill Blvd, Pasadena, CA 91107.
