I was at Holiday Inn last thursday to collect my race kit. The collection point was at the 4th floor in the hotel. Just as I approach the lift lobby, a few men entered the lift and were about to close the doors. I rushed in just in time before the door closed.
(my mood was very dead and sleepy due to a long and rainy bus ride from home to the hotel)
When I entered the lift, the few men, I think from Korea or China, those old-fashioned middle aged kind, chuckled to me... :"Hohoho.. quick! quickly press the lift buttons!! ahh ahh! Just in tiimee to presss... hohoho..."
I gave them a forced smile....
Then a few seconds later, one of them quipped:" Ohh... why 4th floor? why not 27th floor? (27th was the highest)"
I gave them a dead pan face and told them:" Er because I need to go to the 4th floor?"
*silence*
Then the same guy added:" Hohoho... that was a silly question ya?"
Me:(pretend to be friendly)" hur hur... its okay..."
Lift stops at 4th floor
"Byeee"
"Bye bye!"
