One week later
Gill: Cheers! To our first night in our new apartment.
Beth: It's so quiet. I'm not really used to it.
Gill: All you hear is the crickets and the breeze.
Beth: It's a little eerie. I'm sure the silence will begin to grow on me.
Gill: Well, I think it's fabulous. And the neighbors don't even seem to exist.
Beth: That is a relief. It's a good thing we moved.
