"I'm on vacation. I'm here to play." "That's a very unserious reason," Nash replied sarcastically.
"Who knows?" Zaafea said nonchalantly. "Maybe it's just a coincidence that I happen to be here."

"I don't care about him. Headquarters is calling. I'll leave first." "You're quite arrogant," Nash shot back.
