Let Lisa do it.

“I’m so sorry, you’ve just missed the yoga class. We have a class every day at nine.” Lisa explained to the young woman.

“Damn…” She said softly.

Chris made his way behind the counter, “Oh, this is actually the owner of Johnson’s Gym, Chris.” Lisa introduced him.

“G’day” Chris smiled politely to the woman.

“Hi” She smiled back.

The young girl checked her watch, and paused for a moment and considered what to do.

“Our members are welcome to use the yoga room whenever they like. Have you considered signing up?” Lisa said with a wry smile, trying on her best salesman voice.

“I’m not sure I’ll be able to afford it, I was just going to pay for the individual session. This place is really nice!” She said looking around, amazed. “Do you do student discounts?”

“We most certainly do!” Lisa said, before listing off the payments plans.

“That is actually pretty cheap… Maybe I can afford it.” She said. “Can I cancel anytime?”

“Yep! There are no lock-in contracts.” Lisa smiled. The young woman paused, still thinking. “Would you like a tour?”

“Yeah, that would be awesome.”

“My name’s Lisa, by the way” She pointed to her little name tag.

“I’m Brittany” They shook hands warmly.

“So… what do you think?” Lisa asked.

“It’s amazing!” Brittany said, impressed. “Sign me up.”

“Awesome. If you’re going to be on the student plan, I will need to see some ID” Lisa said, organising the paperwork.

“Oh okay” Brittany pulled two cards from her wallet. “There’s my college ID and my license.”

“Excellent.”

Lisa looked over the ID and read her details, Brittany Nguyen was nineteen years old and was studying at USC Marshall.

“Business school isn't it?” Lisa made idle chit chat as she completed the paperwork.

“Yeah” Brittany smiled.

“It’s meant to be quite prestigious too right?” Lisa asked, typing information into the computer system.

“Yeah, a little bit.”

“Hmm…Smart and pretty. I love your bag by the way.” Lisa said, glancing up.

“Oh thanks.” Brittany said brightly, turning to show off her small pink backpack.

Lisa pulled out a card key and complimentary water bottle and towel. “All right! You are all set, welcome aboard Brittany.”
