“I wish my brain was more reliable when I’m doing homework,” The girl said.
“Yeah, tell me about me. To consider I was even thinking I was gonna pass that test!” The boy said.
“That test was so hard..I’m so stressed my blood pressure is up so high,” The girl replied.
“Maybe you should re-do that homework page you got wrong to lower your stress,” The boy shrugged.
“My friends could help me on it but then I’ll have to provide help to them on their english papers..” The girl sighed.
“You don’t have to suffer so much with school, come by the shop on 5th street, my parents are the owners, I’ll study with you,” The boy offered.
“Yes! Companionship! Can I bring my pets too? it’s just two puppies, they’ll bring us happiness after all the schoolwork,” The girl smiled.
“I love puppies! Yes, bring them!” The boy smiled, as he waved and ran to his bus that was waiting for him.
I hope this helped. This is what dialogue is. Fairly easy. Always make sure you are using commas and quotations! I love writing books and english, so maybe this will help you and don’t be afraid to ask for help again.

1. "The Great Gatsby" is set during 1922 in West and East Egg, which are two (fictional) towns on Long Island. As such, Fitzgerald depicts a lavish life during the decade of the Roaring 20s, shown by Gatsby's extravagant parties.
2. The narrator of the story is Nick Carraway, who moves into West Egg, just next door to Mr. Gatsby. Carraway is from the Midwest, attended Yale, and is a war veteran. He becomes friends with Gatsby, and initially arranges a meeting between Gatsby and Daisy.
3. Before marrying her husband (Tom), Daisy Buchanan had a relationship with Gatsby. She is also Carraway's second cousin. Daisy is described as a "flapper," which is a young woman specifically from the Roaring 20s, regarded as fashionable and not overly concerned with conventional behavior (aka, acting like a "lady.").
