Would you like a pizza ? – Oh, no ! I hate pizzas ! – Do you like hamburgers ? – No, I don't. I prefer eating shark and snake meat. – Yuck ! Are you joking ? – Of course I am. I don't like those animals. – Let me choose something for you. It will be a surprise. » 6

Alen calls the waitress and whispers her something. A few minutes later, she comes back with two plates. Beyza asks : « What's this ? – It's a surprise, I told you ! Have a try ! » Beyza eats a mouthful. « Yum. It's delicious. What is it ? – It is a little dog called Chihuahua. – Ohoooo ! » She collapses. Alen stands up and says : « Wake up ! Wake up ! It's a joke. It is just rabbit ! » 7
