A middle-aged man with a calm demeanour, smiled apologetically. "Sorry about that, ma'am. Didn't mean to startle you. I just need you to fill in your identification number and phone details for our records. It's for safety reasons, in case of an emergency."
Laura laughed, the tension easing out of her. "No worries, you just caught me off guard. I was too focused on getting inside and sealing the deal." She winked at John as she grabbed the clipboard and began filling in her details.
The gatekeeper nodded approvingly. "Better safe than sorry, I always say. We wouldn't want any mix-ups or delays if something were to happen. Once you're done, you're free to go."
As Laura handed back the clipboard, she playfully saluted the gatekeeper. "All set, sir! I'm officially traceable now. Hehee!"
The gatekeeper chuckled as he took the clipboard. "Thank you, ma'am. You're free to go now. Success, and good luck with your desire."
