Boarding at gate 4

Check-in queue for a flight to Barcelona at gate 4. Boarding pass scanner beeps. Passengers crowded in a small, sultry room waiting for the gate to open. To lines of passengers waiting to show their boarding cards. Attendants are annoyed at passengers who sneak through the priority route despite not having this service purchased. Radio chatter from a walkie-talkie standing on the desktop. (roland r-07)
