If I had known that, I would have joined in the party, too. After all, I was not busy last week. What a pity! How are you getting along with your work? Have you finished the work you mentioned last time?

You are so smart and clever. If I had your brain, I would also deal with everything easily. If I were to solve all the problems in a short time, I would be able to enjoy free time. When you finish the work, you can come to my house. My family and I are looking forward to your coming.
