I am staying at the Royal Hotel. This morning I walked past a room on the first floor. Suddenly, I heard a woman's voice. "Help!" the woman shouted.

Then I heard a man's voice. "Don't move or I'll shoot you!" the man shouted angrily.

"Please don't shoot me," the woman cried.

The man laughed. Then I heard a shot!

I knocked at the door loudly. "Come in," the woman said softly.

I rushed into the room. "What's the matter?" I asked the woman, "Can I help you?"

"Who are you?" the woman asked angrily.

"I heard a shot," I said. "Are you all right?"

The woman laughed. "Of course I'm all right." She turned to the man. "Put your gun in your pocked," she said.

"What's happening?" I asked.

"We're not quarrelling," the man said. "We are actors. We are learning our parts."
