B. Dialogue

Anna:
Hey Brian, have you ever tried gado-gado?
Hi Brian, sudah pernah kamu coba gado gado

Brian: 
Gado-what? Is that some kind of dance?

Anna: 
 Nooo! It’s an Indonesian dish—like a salad, but with peanut sauce. Super tasty!

Brian: 
Hmm, salad with peanut butter? That sounds weird but interesting.

Anna: 
Not peanut butter—peanut sauce! Spicy, sweet, creamy… and the salad has boiled veggies, tofu, tempeh, even eggs.

Brian: 
Okay, that actually sounds pretty good. So, do you eat it cold or hot?

Anna: 
Usually room temperature. But honestly, it depends on your mood. Some people like it warm.

Brian: 
You Indonesians really know how to mix flavors. I mean, even the name sounds like a mix.

Anna: 
You’re right! "Gado-gado" actually means “mix-mix”.

Brian: 
Ah! That explains a lot. By the way, speaking of mix—did you watch that weird movie on Netflix with aliens, time travel, and romance?

Anna: 
What? No! What movie is that?

Brian: 
I forgot the name. Something like Space Love Crisis or Time Invaders. Totally gado-gado plot.

Anna: 
That’s perfect. Now gado-gado is not just food—it's a way of life.

Brian: 
Exactly. Food, movies, my schedule… all mixed up.

Anna: 
Maybe your brain needs some peanut sauce too.

Brian: 
Haha, I’d take that over another meeting any day!
