Hello,teachers!
Could you check to see if the dialogue below is correct and natural?
--At a pub--
A : Did you come alone today?
B: The friend of mine cancelled on me for an unexpected business. So I've got some extra times. |

You haven't answered the original question, though.
Actually, the only answer required for B is, "Yes." (or "No") and then you can add the explanation if you wish. |
