Funny story, not real,but funny... or a sort of.... ;) Thank you for the corrections! Yesterday I met my friend Pablo in Milano. He was surprised to see me and asked: Hi Will!! How long have we met each others? A lot of time! How are you? I answered. He said me that he had been in Paris for two years because his wife Pamela had found a job there.... In the meantime I have found a job, he said me. Wow... It's a great news. But why do you look like so angry.... and above all.. why are you here in Milan? I asked. He answerd sighing... I'm here because you must give me back 3.000 euros. Smiling, I replied: when are you coming back my friend?...

  Yesterday, I met my friend Pablo in <em>Milan</em>. He was surprised to see me and <em>said</em> "Hi Will! How long have we known each <em>other</em>?" "A long time, and how are you?" I answered. He told me that he had been in Paris for two years because his wife Pamela had found a job there. "In the meantime, I have found a job there, too" he said. "Wow" I said, "That is great news, <em>but</em> why do you look so angry? And above all, why are you here in Milan?" I asked. He answerd sighing, "I'm here because you owe me  3.000 Euros!" Smiling, I replied "So when are you coming back, my friend?"

<em>Good one, Guglielmo.</em>

I think you meant "How long has it been since we have seen each other?"

When quoting, the form is    "A long time! How are you?", I answered.

3.000 > 3,000 (I am American so for me, it is dollars, $3,000.00)
