The lights came on and I heard the crowd begin to cheer happily.
I placed my hand on the flat surface of the door and pushed it open, I took my first steps into the casino.

I took one final glance around, I swallowed the saliva in my mouth and pressed my fingers together. I walked elegantly towards the man in a red suit till I became visually acquainted with him.
I quietly sat at the far end while I counted how many footsteps it was going to take the young man to get where I was seated.
"3…2…1."
"Good day lady." He greeted me.
