I've Been There Before

Carol took a celadon teacup from the square stool, hold it with a saucer and gave it to the woman. The woman stood up and her hair fell to her waist, it was amazingly long, and it was tied loosely with a hair tie. The woman held her hand out and received the tea in the celadon teacup from Carol, she opened the lid, took a sip, and put the lid back on.

“Carol, go get the rental agreement and follow me.” She took long strides walking towards the room upon finishing her sentence, her pace was slow.

“I’m here, boss.” Carlos hurriedly ran to the cupboard and ran after her. Carol followed the woman’s footsteps with a brown paper envelope in hand. The woman was walking leisurely and so Carol walked slowly behind her as well. They went from the corridor to the second floor and took twice as long to get there than an average person, who could probably get there in 2-3 minutes. Carol didn’t rush her, even though the woman was slow.

As soon as they got to the corridor on the second floor, they could hear a couple quarrelling loudly.

The woman halted in her tracks and the relaxation between her brows was gone, her expression became indifferent. Carol didn’t know why the carefree and amiable boss would lose her usual gentleness and practically change into another person when guests were quarrelling in the homestay.

Suddenly, a crashing sound of a bone China being thrown on the floor came from inside of the room. The woman’s face darkened, she took a few steps forwards silently and stopped right in front of the door. She then proceeded to knock on the door.

“Open the door.”

The couple in the room was busy fighting and didn’t give a damn about the person outside telling them to open the door.

“Carol.” She took a step backwards and gave way to Carol, signalling Carol to use the spare key to open the door. The door opened with a crack, the couple was frightened, they immediately stopped quarrelling and looked towards the door in sync.

Outside the door stood two people.

The couple in the room quickly realized that it was the homestay workers, their nervousness dissipated, and they loosened up.

They immediately yelled at Carol and her boss spitefully, “How could you guys just barge in like this? What about my privacy? It is so rude, and you violated me and my boyfriend’s privacy!”

The woman standing by the door didn’t care about the couple’s arrogant statement, she glanced around the room and said, “Both of you, please pack your back and take your leave right now.”

The couple in the room never would’ve thought that a worker of the homestay would say something like that. The man’s face immediately turned red, “Why should we? We paid in advance to stay for 5 days, how could you just drive us away? Get me your boss, I want to speak to your boss and complain about you guys!”

“I am the boss.”
