🏠 Diálogo: Roomies con Problemas de Convivencia 🚪

Ana: Oye, Luis, tenemos que hablar…

Luis: ¿Sobre qué?

Ana: Sobre la convivencia. Últimamente, siento que no estamos respetando las reglas del apartamento.

Luis: ¿A qué te refieres?

Ana: Por ejemplo, dejas los platos sucios en el fregadero por días.

Luis: ¡No es para tanto! A veces estoy cansado y lo dejo para después.

Ana: Sí, pero ese "después" nunca llega y me toca lavarlos a mí.

Luis: Ok, lo entiendo. Intentaré hacerlo más seguido.

Ana: Gracias. Y otra cosa… tus amigos vienen todo el tiempo sin avisar.

Luis: ¿Eso te molesta?

Ana: Sí, a veces quiero tranquilidad y de repente hay ruido hasta la madrugada.

Luis: Lo siento, no me di cuenta.

Ana: No digo que no invites a nadie, solo que me avises antes.

Luis: Está bien, te avisaré la próxima vez.

Ana: Genial. Y ya que estamos hablando… el alquiler está para pagarse y aún no has puesto tu parte.

Luis: ¡Ups! Lo olvidé, te lo transfiero hoy mismo.

Ana: ¡Gracias! Es importante que cumplamos con nuestras responsabilidades.

Luis: Lo sé, Ana. Voy a mejorar, lo prometo.

Ana: Eso espero, porque si no… ¡buscaré otro roomie!

Luis: ¡Jajaja! No quiero que me eches, así que haré mi parte.
