What’s the probable relationship between the speakers?

M: Have you found a place to live yet?
W: Yes, Dad. I think I have at last.
M: Wonderful.
W: I’m excited because I’ m tired of looking.
M: It hasn’t been easy for you. I suppose it’s the beginning of the new term, and all the new students are looking for places as well.
W: Yes, that’ s one reason. But this place is also full of new technology companies and there are lots of young people looking for somewhere to live. And you know what that means?
M: Higher rents, of course.
W: Yes, much higher.
M: Well, tell me how much it is.
W: It isn’t cheap for this area. It’s ￡400 a month.
M: That’s much more than you had expected.
W: Yes, it is. But I can’t go on looking anymore. I want a place where I can put my things instead of living out of a suitcase. I don’ t want to stay in this hotel any longer.
M: I guess not. So what’ s the new place like?
W: Oh, it’s really, really nice. It’s in a very quiet street. It’s a second floor flat with one double room, a large living room, a kitchen, a toilet, and a bathroom.
