taken aback at the new variation

Frankie at first refused to take
him seriously, but, persuaded by a

that the boss meant what he said.
He placed his guitar on the chair
and started to walk of.

the boss after him.
"Oh, no." replied Frankie, that

He then sat at a nearby table
and soon had the pleasure of seeing

hands.

the bellhop hissed as he went past
