Isabella had just finished her shower around 3.00AM. Just then, a third round

of knocking began, and it was the same waiter as before. Isabella was

already numb to it. So, she let the waiter bring the meal into the room and

closed the door expressionlessly.

This time, it was a dish of fish mixed with foie gras, which was also the same

frustration. Her cheeks bulged as she kept shoveling food in her mouth,

resembling a pufferfish.

The knocking became more frequent for the next half an hour. Yet, the dishes

were delivered one after another until she finally got her hands on the ice

cream.

Just as Isabella thought she could finally have a moment of peace to herself,

the waiter said, “The wine you ordered will be here shortly. Please wait for a

moment

Isabella took a deep breath and stood by the door without saying anything.
