"You can get yourself a coffee at the food court while I look for a dress to wear to Brianna's bridal shower."
"Really? You need a new dress to wear for a shower? Okay, the wedding... I could see. But the shower?"
"Oh, thanks for reminding me. I might as well see what they have for the wedding while I'm there. If I can't find anything, I'll take a look in the anchor store. And if they don't have anything... well, I might be a while."
"In that case, I'll be at the bar in the restaurant."
