Allan:
Hey Claire, do you have a minute?
Claire:
Sure, what’s up?
Allan:
I’m running a charity cake stall this Friday to raise money for a children’s hospital. It’s part of a community fundraiser I’ve joined. Would you be open to making a small donation?
Claire:
Oh, that sounds lovely, Allan… but I’ve already donated to another charity appeal this week. Sorry!
Allan:
Totally understand — no pressure at all. But if you’ve got a coin or two to spare, it’ll go straight to a good cause. Every bit counts. And hey — I’ll save you the best cupcake.
Claire:
(Laughs) Alright, you got me. I can’t say no to a cupcake!
