Characters:
Girl
Guy
The Scene:
The apartment
The lift
Girl is in the lift, heading back to her apartment. She presses '3' for her floor and turns around to notice Guy half-running towards the lift. Girl therefore presses the 'open' button to wait for him.
Guy: Thanks.
Girl acknowledges with a smile. At that moment, her cell phone sounds, signaling a new message. She takes out her phone and reads the message. Lift has already moved. Girl starts to reply the message and glances up when the lift stops. She sees the still highlighted '3' button and thinks, "Oh, he's on the third floor, too!"
Guy steps out. Girl follows. The door facing the lifts on any X floor is X06. Guy heads towards X06 and opens the door. Girl finds this odd.
Thoughts running through Girl's mind:
That's strange, I could have sworn that there was a rowdy family with a bunch of noisy kids staying in 306.
306 has been away for a holiday for some time now, 'cause they've been really quiet for the past few weeks and I haven't seen the family around. Plus, that notice that all the tenants got regarding apartment inspections is STILL lying outside their door, and it's been there for weeks now.
306 must have moved out, because this strange guy has access to the apartment, so we must have new neighbours.
(Yes, it's perfectly plausible for all these thoughts to take place in the span of a few seconds.)
Guy goes into the apartment and Girl finally gets a good look at the apartment number.
1-freaking-06 stares back at her. She feels as if she's just been run over by a lorry.
Girl: Oh my gosh, oh my gosh, this is NOT happening. WHAT THE HELL.
She turns around swiftly, dashes back to the lift and slams the 'UP' button. The lift cannot seem to come quick enough and she wishes that the ground would open up and swallow her alive. She fervently hopes that Guy did not notice her scurrying after him when they arrived at the first floor. Although that is probably wishful thinking.
And that, ladies and gentlemen, is another humiliating, cringing, 'this-cannot-be-happening' moment in the life of yours truly.
