Yet another Conversation

Setting: The porch, where Angus is taking off his shoes and coat after school. Mum is sorting Isla's shoes and Blue (dog) is getting in the way as usual.

Mum: Hurry up Angus. We need to get in and close the door. It's cold.
Angus: pausing from taking off his shoes Mum, something great happened at school today.
Mum: Can you tell me when we get inside? Let's hurry up and go in.
Angus: still not taking off his shoes But I want to tell you now. It's important!
Mum: Well, tell me as you take off your shoes.
Angus: But I can't. I'm a gentleman not a lady and gentlemen can't do two things at once!
