For Rent

A tall thin gentleman walked over to the associate helping Thora in her quest.

“Are you two talking about the purple house down the street?” He asked, with an intrigued expression.

“Yes” They say in unison.

“I want to know if it is for rent?” Thora asked as she looked at both gentleman.

“Well lets see here.” The man behind the desk said as he consulted his computer. “The unit in question… is available… in three weeks” he said. As he looked up at Thora.

Thora smiled and nodded politely. “I would like to apply to rent that unit if I can” She said.

“Alrighty” the clerk said as he made a few clicks with his mouse. Within seconds his printer came to life.
He handed her an application to fill out.

“Fill this out and we will call you within 24 hours to let you know if you can rent the unit” He said.

“Ok” she said and smiled.

She left the rental office with application . She headed for starbucks so she could fill out the application. She wanted a lattee anyway.
