she finally lost control of herself. She grabbed the phone, dialed the police phone, and began to explain to them in German that the Russians had illegally taken the number, refused to give a deposit, and now they even move out and refuse to pay. Well, you know what these Russians are. Please come and help us deal with them. These Russians scandalized us here at the hotel and spoil the image of our establishment. You must come and deal with them.
Our son understands German.
He naturally translated all this for us.
That was her mistake. And when the police arrived we were ready to make a claim of insult on a national basis.
Two policemen arrived with batons and pistols. The people gathered. Here's the fun. A family with two children is evicted from the hotel with the police! They don’t have money, they can’t pay .... so they evict them ... Not a fig for themselves ... that's how it happens, it turns out! This is the show.
- What happened to you? - the policeman asks
- A strange thing happened. - with complete bewilderment on my face, I say. I’m that actress, actually. - We want to leave the hotel, as we have an emergency at home. We want to pay for the actual stay plus one extra night, as the law .... but for some reason, Mrs. began to call you and, moreover, insult us and determine us on a national basis. Screaming that we have to pay more, because we are Russians and go to Turkey. What a horror! We are just in shock! We don’t even know what to do. ....
How nice of you to come! Please explain to Madame that we are not Russian, and we are not from Russia at all and we have never been to Turkey .... we are European citizens, we are Latvians by nationality, if it is customary to define this hotel on a national basis. By law (unless otherwise agreed), we are not required to pay for more than one extra night. And if Madame has a claim, then she has the right to sue the person who made the reservation, i.e. to the Latvian company.
I managed to say all this calmly, with overt surprise on my face and, supposedly, a complete misunderstanding of what was happening.
Then a conversation ensued between the policeman and the "nationalist in the guise of a hotel manager" in German. From time to time, she began to tone up and blush, which was completely not in her favor. From the conversation, we realized that the main argument of the policeman was that he really did not have the right to arrest or detain us, and the fact that she “insulted us” by calling Russians aggravates her situation and really damages the image of the hotel.
The people relished what is happening! )))
As I remember the expression on the face of that woman!
With foam at her mouth, panting with indignation, she ordered her subordinates to issue an invoice for two nights + 1 extra and left for the work room .... after 10 minutes we had the cash accepted and the policeman said that we could be free.
- Thank you so much. - I said dryly and the four of us headed for the exit through the crowd of onlookers.
She could not calm down and jumped out of her closet like a barking dog and screamed in our wake:
I WILL CALL TO THE BOARDER AND THEY WILL STOP YOU AT THE BOARDER. YOU WILL BE ARESTED AT THE BOARDER.
Yeah! Anger truly obscures the eyes.
The dumbass didn’t understand that there would be no border.
We are the citizens of Europe.
That's where we will definitely never return, so it is in Zell-Am-See.
