Not now

You decide that you really want to find know more about your condition before you start meeting people you know. "Sorry, I would love to, but I really have to get a few things sorted out tonight. Can we do it another time?"

"I guess..." Dean lowers his voice to a hushed tone. "But I can't guarantee April will be up for it a bit later on. I've got her good and stoned and have been working on her for a few hours now. You've gotta help me out, man!"

However, your mind is made up. "Sorry, dude, I really can't. You could always try videoing her so I could watch later! That would be sort of the same, wouldn't it?"

Dean sniggers down the phone. "No, dude, that would be nowhere near the same! But I like the way you think! I gotta go find my camcorder!"

"Good luck! Listen, I have to go, I have a couple of phone calls to make," you reply.

"OK, John. I'll see you around." You hear him calling April over as the phone clicks off.
