"Bigger? You mean like a double room?"

"No. Something bigger than that. Much bigger and more luxurious too."

She snapped her fingers that were adorned with long red nails. "The Royal sounds interesting. Is it available?"

"Yes, it is."

"Good. I would take it."

"I am sorry. But it is usually reserved for dignitaries and other distinguished guests."

She raised her eyebrows. "Is that so?"

"Yes, ma’am. You could choose from the Regular or the -"

"By the way, what is your name?"

"I am Stanley."

"Ma’am, it’s not that easy."

"Why? Aren't you the manager here?"

"I am. But.."

"But what? You don't know how to manage anything?"

"Excuse me?"
