Answers
Answer:
Deena: Heather, I'm really glad that Sage invited you to that meeting a few weeks ago.
Brian: Oh yeah! I was just thinking about when Heather first showed up. You weren't too thrilled about her taking Lori's place.
Deena: Brian, I admit I did have some problems with Heather at first, but things are just fine now.
Brian: What was your problem with Heather?
Deena: I think what bothered me the most was that Lori left out of nowhere. I was really upset by that and I took it out on Heather. I couldn't help thinking to myself that Heather was intruding on our group. I mean, what right did she have to take Lori's place?
Brian: So your problem was with someone who wasn't even there?
Deena: Exactly. So I acted really sarcastic to everything Heather said and I think I sort of avoided her.
Brian: And how did you feel about that, Heather?
Heather: Well, to tell you the truth, I didn't really want to come back to the group after that first meeting, but Sage explained the situation to me.
Deena: I'm glad you came back.
Brian: Oh, isn't that sweet? Now we're all one big, happy family.
Deena: Seriously, Brian. It's really important that the conflict between Heather and me was resolved. Actually, this story brings up a good point. We're going to be dealing with conflict for the rest of our lives, and it's important that we learn how how to deal with it.
