The flight attendant had handed her a small box of complimentary assorted Swiss chocolates. By the time she could ask or say anything she had left to serve chocolates to other people who were still awake. From her raised eyebrows it was evident that it was her first-time flying in business class, and she had no idea whether the chocolates were complementary or chargeable like a mini-bar of a hotel room.
She was feeling way too embarrassed to call the attendant back and ask her about it, but at the same time was too hungry and badly wanted to eat them, but didn't want to pile on any extra bills in case. So she looked around and saw the guy next to her ripping off his chocolate packet up and was about to eat one.
So she mustered up some courage and asked turning a bit towards him,
"Excuse me !!!"
"Um... hi. This is my first time travelling in business class, so erm... actually, I wanted to ask. Um… are these chocolates chargeable?"
