Chapter 40: Call Your Boss

Joyce walked over to where Crystal and Nathan were seated. She looked over the table and out their window and then at Crystal. ��Well, well, well,�� she said. ��Since when can just anyone get a table at Air Cosme?�� She turned to the manager, ��I want this table. You can ask them to leave. I will pay double for everything I ordered.

The manager sighed and said, ��I'm afraid that is not the way we operate here. As long as Mr. Davis is here, this is his table.��

��No,�� Joyce whined. ��I want this table!��

She stomped her feet.�� I want it! ��I want it! I want it!

Suddenly, Carlos grabbed Joyce's arm. His face was red, ��Let's eat somewhere else,�� he said. ��You're causing a scene, and it's embarrassing.��

Joyce turned to Carlos and said, ��Shut up.�� Then she sat down in the empty chair next to Crystal. She looked across the table at Nathan. ��Hello, Mr. Davis. Since we are all acquaintances, do you mind if we share a table?��
