Would you correct my English? ( Oct. 23 )

Hello. I wrote two dialogues. Will you correct them?

No. 1

F: This skirt is a little ( too ) tight in the waist. I wonder if I've gain [ put on ] weight.

M: You don't look like it.

F: Should I go on a diet?

M: I don't think so. And too severe [ hard ] a diet is bad for you [ ( your ) health ].

No. 2

M: Hello. This is Ken. May I speak [ talk ] to Mari?

F: Hi, Ken. Mari is out [ not in ] right now. Can I take a message?

M: There's no hurry [ It's not urgent ], so I'll talk to her tomorrow.

F: Is that OK? Shall I have her call you back?

Thank you. kenta
