On Saturday Peter's friend called Nick went to see him. When he went into the room, Peter was practicing English words. His friend thought it was too much of a strain for a sick man, and suggested that he should put off doing his homework until he had completely recovered. Nick asked Peter how he felt, and expressed the hope that he would soon be quite well again. Nick also offered to go to the chemist's, but Peter said it wasn't necessary. The friends discussed a lot of other things, and at last Nick left, wishing Peter a speedy recovery.
