Chapter 3 *********
Kay finally made it to L.A. It was early in the morning and she needed to find a hotel. She went to a pay phone and looked in the phone book for a taxi service. She found one and called for a taxi. The taxi finally got there.
"You called a cab?" asked the driver
"Yes." said Kay
He took her bags and put them in the trunk. Then got into the cab.
"Where to miss?"
"Do you know any hotel around here anywhere? A nice one?"
"Well, there is the holiday inn."
"Yes, take me there."
The drive to the hotel was a little long. When Kay got there she was surprised at it. It wasn't like the holiday inn's she had seen before. No, this was like 30 floors. The driver helped her with her bags and Kay paid him. There was a bell boy outside the door. He walked up to Kay.
"Can I help you with your bags miss.?"
"Yes thank you."
Kay walked into the hotel followed by the bell boy. She walked up to the counter.
"Can I help you?" asked the lady behind the counter
"I would like a room."
"Ok and how will you be paying for this?"
"Cash."
Kay got her room and the bellboy put her bags in the room.
"Now, there is a tv for your enjoyment, bathroom right here, you diel nine to get out of the hotel, six for room service, and diel 3 for the front desk. Will that be all?"
"Yes. Thank you."
The bellboy left and Kay sat on the bed thinking. I can't believe I did it. Then she heard her stomach growl. I haven't eaten sence that little snack with Tabitha. I wonder if I could get room service this early? Kay picked up the phone and dieled for the front desk.
"Front desk."
"Yes, is the kitchen opened this early to get something to eat?"
"It doesn't open for another hour miss."
"Ok thank you."
"Your welcome miss."
Kay hung up the phone. I guess I could get some sleep. I think jet lag is setting in. Kay went to sleep as soon as her head hit the pillow. When she woke up it was in the after noon. I'm hungry she thought. She then caught a glimce of a menu on the night stand. She picked it up and scanned it and then dieled six.
"Room service."
"Yes, I would just like the sample breakfast server and I don't want the bacon. But I would like the hasbrowns."
"Ok, miss. I need your room number."
"341 on the 12th floor."
"Thank you and it will there be very soon miss."
Kay hung up the phone and turned on the tv. She was watching tv when there was a knock at the door.
"Room service."
Kay opened the door and a guy wheeled in a service cart. Kay thanked him and tipped him with a ten dollor bill. She ate her breakfast/lunch and grabbed a newspaper and her key and headed out in the town. Kay searched for a job and set up an interview for a job as a waitress. She didn't tell them about her being pregnent because she wanted to at least get an interview. She then searched for an apartment and found non that she could afford. She then went back to her hotel room and watched tv and drew more designs. She just sat there thinking about her new life that awaited her with so many challenges.
