Ellen:[to Rita Mae] It's nice seeing you Let me know if you need anything.[She leaves.]

Rita Mae:Thanks, Ellen.

Marilyn:Thanks, Ellen

Rita Mae:OK, Marilyn. You sounded like you've made a decision when you called me. I'm all ears.

Marilyn:I have made a decision, Rita Mae. I've decided to stay at home and be a full-time mother.

Rita Mae:I'm disappointed, but I respect your decision.If I had a child 14 as cute as Max, I might do the same thing.

Marilyn:But I haven't finished telling you the other half of my decision.

Rita Mae:The other half?

Marilyn:Yes. I think I can stay at home and take care of Max and continue my career .

Rita Mae:Sounds interesting. Let me hear it.

Marilyn:Do you remember our talks about custom-de-signed dresses for the boutique?

Rita Mae:I sure do.

Marilyn:Why can't I design dresses for you here at home? And make them here. Have the fittings here, too.

Rita Mae:And I could do the selling and the pricing at the boutique.

Marilyn:Exactly.

Rita Mae:Oh! What kind of dresses would you design?

Marilyn:I've thought about that for some time.

Rita Mae:Yes?

Marilyn:Wedding dresses.

Rita Mae:Wedding dresses? Brilliant idea! There's a big market today in wedding dresses.

Marilyn:That's what I thought.

Rita Mae:I like the idea very much. And if it's successful, we can expand to all kinds of dresses.

Marilyn:That's what I thought.

Rita Mae:As a matter of fact, I have a customer for your first wedding dress. My niece is getting married, and I've been

trying to find just the right thing for her. Marilyn, you're going to design my niece's dress. That'll be our first one, and

thenwe'll use it to sell others.

Marilyn:Do you really mean it?

Rita Mae:I really mean it. It's a simple idea, and it will work. You can certainly design dresses. I know that. And there's

no reason why you can't do it from your home.

Marilyn:I'm so excited! can't wait to tell Richard!

Rita Mae:If I had a baby like Max, I'd want to stay home and be near him all the time, too. You're making the fight decision

for Max and for yourself too, Marilyn.Marilyn:It all sounds so easy.

Rita Mae:Now the hard work begins.

Marilyn:Would you like to see some of my designs that I've been working on?

Rita Mae:I'd love to. [She begins to look at Marilyn's dress designs. ] Ooh! Oh, that's wonderful! Ooh…
