Time for Bed
1
A: It's time for bed.
B: I'm not ready to go to sleep. I'm not tired.
A: It's quite late, and you have an early day tomorrow.
B: I'm not going to be able to fall asleep.
A: Why don't you try counting sheep?
B: I've tried that before. It really doesn't work.
A: That's beside the point, you still need to go to bed.
B: Why can't I just stay up until I fall asleep?
A: If I let you do that, then you're just going to be up all night.
B: I promise I'll go to sleep soon.
A: No, you're going to sleep now, so good night.
B: See you in the morning.

A: Shouldn't you already be in bed?
B: I can't sleep. I'm really not all that tired.
A: You need to get some rest, as you have to get up early in the morning.
B: It's impossible for me to get to sleep right now.
A: Just close your eyes, and try not to think.
B: That really does not work for me.
A: It doesn't matter, you need to get some sleep.
B: How about I tire myself out, and then fall asleep when I'm tired?
A: Then you're not going to go to sleep.
B: Don't worry, I'll make sure and get to sleep in a little while.
A: I want you in bed, right now, so sweet dreams.
B: Fine. Sleep well yourself.

A: Isn't it past your bedtime already?
B: I am not sleepy.
A: It's getting late, and you have to wake up early tomorrow.
B: There is no way that I can fall asleep right now.
A: Try listening to some soft music.
B: It won't work. I'm nowhere close to being tired.
A: I really don't care, just go to sleep.
B: What if I stay up and do something, until I get tired?
A: You'll be up all night if I let you do that.
B: I'm going to get to sleep eventually.
A: You need to go to sleep now, so go to sleep.
B: Good night.
