“You can not just do nothing for three months.” said his father joining in the conversation.
Simon anticipated that his father would come out with something like this.
He went on to explain that he cannot help the fact that the economy is slow.
Mother then spoke up for Simon and stated how happy she was for him.
Father knew not to blame Simon for these present chains of events.

“Simon, I talked to your Aunty May recently and she thinks it would be a good idea if you spent some time there over the summer”, Mother explained.
