Wet room
The door leads directly into a wet room with three shower heads, a basin and a toilet and a wall of cubbyholes some with piles of neatly folded clothes, others empty. It is strange to have such an entrance onto the street, perhaps it was added in preparation for the pandemic.
The woman places the hand written note in a cubbyhole and strips naked as if without a care should anyone see. Turns the tap, waits for the water to warm and takes a luxurious shower as if without a care should anyone enter.
The naked woman towels dry and drops the towel in the laundry basket.
The naked woman stands brazen, looking about, looking confused.
The brazen naked woman retrieves the handwritten note. Reads.
ON ARRIVAL YOU WILL DON THE ANIMAL MASK IN THE CUBBYHOLE PROVIDED AND YOU WILL LEAVE YOUR CLOTHES IN THERE. YOU WILL KEEP YOUR MASK ON AT ALL TIMES AND MUST NOT AT ANY POINT TRY TO CONCEAL YOUR NUDITY. YOU MAY NOT TALK OR MAKE ANY SOUND NOT APPROPRIATE FOR THE ANIMAL MASK.
YOU MAY LEAVE AT ANY POINT BUT BE AWARE THIS IS A SINGLE ENTRY INVITATION.
The brazen naked woman looks through the cubbyholes, finds the eagle mask, smiles, slides the handwritten invitation next to the mask. Takes the mask. Dons it. Enters the house.
