Pursing her lips she typed on her phone a small message on the notepad seeking where the rooms were. As she tried to show people, they only pushed her aside and kept moving. With a huff she lightly stomped her foot before taking a seat inwardly cursing her muteness. As another person came down the hall, she stood up slowly trying her luck as she lightly tapped their shoulder to gain their attention.
