Condo.
When I ask the nice sales lady how much it is for that particular unit in that particular building, she shoots off a price. I glance down at my shoes and then up at the ceiling saying “um” and “ah”—as if I’m thinking it over. It’s way out of my price range. “Oh, that’s all?”, I respond. I want her to think that I can afford it. I want people to think that no price is too high. Unfortunately, everything in this sales centre is out of my wallet’s reach.
