Outside the Window

Part 1

     

     The laptop closed. Mandy Murray was done with her work. As a travel agent, she got to stay home, with her dog Ginger, a 6 year-old toy Pomeranian. He was very small, and not much work. 

"Well, Ginger, I'm done with work." Mandy said. Ginger barked and leapt up on her lap, and Mandy fell backwards into her bed. She would've fallen asleep earlier if Ginger had stopped licking her face. She fell asleep after 11:00, Ginger shortly after. 

"Mr. Denton, hi. I've booked your flights to Houston and from there to Fiji. I heard the Marriott was a nice place. Yes, it's ready. No, I haven't booked a room. Yes, I already said that. Okay, bye." Mandy ended her call with Mr. Denton, the man who hired her to be his agent. He is married with three kids, who are grown up. Next she called Gerald Sands, owner of the Marriott in Fiji. "Hi, I am Mandy Murray. travel agent for Mr. and Mrs. Denton. They would like a room at your hotel and need at least two bed and one bath. Do you have any available rooms fitting the description?"

In front of the couch was a Vizio TV, which was huge. The third image was of the bathroom. The floor and walls were tan marble, with a white painted roof. The shower had a translucent door, and the inside was the same walls and floor as the outside. On the right of the shower was a bath, equipped with ten jets; five on each side. The last attachment was of the bedroom. It had a queen bed, and the covers were the same style as the couch. Another large Vizio was in front of the bed, and a wooden fan above the bed. The pillows were plain white, and a black blanket with a white starfish in the middle was folded across the foot of the bed. "Perfect!" Mandy yelled and laughed. Ginger gave a questioned look, then went back to sleep. She forwarded it to Mr. Denton, and then called him. "Sam, I found the perfect room!" Sam Denton opened up his old computer, and opened his email. After looking through the pictures, he told me "Mandy, this room looks-
