B: I am. I have a house guest staying with me right now. He's a friend from my English class. He was going to stay for a week. but he's been here for four weeks now.

A: Oh. no! Why has he been staying with you for so long?

B: Well, there was a fire in his apartment building, so he has to find a new place to stay. The problem is, he can't afford to pay the deposit for a new place until he gets money from the insurance company.

A: That's terrible. The poor guy.
