Lastly, there is Grace. She was a talented musician. Her melodies picked up his spirit [ ont repris son esprit ]. Their date would be at a jazz club. He could pick up a few dance steps [ apprendre quelques pas de danse ] with her.

Finally, Alex decided to pick out Sarah. He connected with her. He planned to pick her up [ ] at her place. He was nervous but ready. He picked up a bouquet of flowers. He drove to her place. His heart picked up its pace. That afternoon, they picked out books [ ils ont choisi des livres ]. They talked and laughed. Alex drove her home. They shared a hug at the end.

He got home later. He felt he made the right choice. Then his phone buzzed. Emily was calling him. She picked out another day [ a sélectionné un autre jour ] for a date.
