Victor Norman came awake quietly and looked at his watch. Twenty after nine. He glanced at the mussed but empty twin bed beside his, picked up a cigarette, then put it down. He was against smoking before breakfast, on the theory it promoted ulcers.
Marguerite came out of the bathroom in her slip, looked around for her dress and began to put it on.
"Good morning," Vic said.
She wriggled her head through the neck of the dress. "Oh, I waked [sic] you up! I'm sorry, Vic. You needed the sleep."
"So did you. Anyway, I have to see a man this morning."
He picked up the phone and asked for room service. "What'll you have for breakfast, Marguerite?"
She took her coat from a closet.
"Nothing, dear. I'm late for work as it is."
He ordered breakfast for one, listened to room service tell him how tough things were in the Waldorf nowadays and it might take some time to find a waiter to bring the food up.
"Well, do your best. And send a Times along, please."
Marguerite said, "I gotta go, honey. I'm late."
"I had a wonderful time, Marguerite. I'll call you." From: Frederic Wakeman, "The Hucksters," NY, 1946
