I entered the room and instantly scrunched my nose in disgust.

"Can you believe it? We paid so much for this horrible place." I huffed, looking around.

"Oh, c'mon, it's not that bad," he said, carefully examining the room. He walked towards the window and opened it. As a cool breeze came from outside, I closed my eyes, breathing it in.

"Look at the view," he added, still looking outside.

I opened my eyes and walked in his direction. Then I peeked outside, a grin forming on my face. All the sadness of not getting a proper room vanished away. The water was crystal clear and the sand was white.

"Wow, it's beautiful." I breathed out. "Now, I understand why you wanted a room in this hotel."

He grinned. "This is the only hotel that provides such a beautiful view."

I nodded. "I'm glad I took your offer."

"I told you it was nice." He smirked. "Want to go for a walk?"

"Sure." I grinned. "Let me change."

"Okay, I'll wait outside," he said and stepped outside of the room.

I locked the door and pulled out denim shorts from my bag, pairing it with a crop top. After snapping sunscreen on my body, I replayed the moments that had happened before this.

After waiting for an hour, I finally got the chance to meet the manager. He listened and processed our problem, making a suggestion of sharing the room.

"Are you freaking kidding me?" I spat out through gritted teeth. "Why would I share my room with someone when I clearly booked it for myself?"

"Well, you can take that room for yourself by paying the remaining amount," he replied, calmly. He didn't even seem affected by my anger, and this made my blood boil even more.

"I've already paid enough as per the deal," I hissed.

"Well, that deal was valid for 7 days within the booking and, if I'm not wrong, you booked it before 1 month, right?" he raised his eyebrow, indicating that I couldn't win this with him.

"It wasn't mentioned there."

"Did you check all the details including terms and conditions?" he smirked, wrapping the situation around his fingers.

"No," I replied, getting furious. I noticed his smirk growing wider, and I controlled myself to wipe it from his bloody face.

Damn! I screwed up totally.
