France

I need somewhere easy to leave when the appointment message arrives. The building may open early, but the message does not say. A quiet hotel lobby seems possible, although I'd ask before settling in.

I have the quantity written on my phone in case saying it becomes confusing. My recipe uses a modest amount and I do not want food left over. I only need enough for one dinner and have one small tote with me.

I need the item tomorrow, but I don't want to pressure a tiny counter. A friend can collect it, but only if I can give them a reliable reference. The shop is far enough away that a second visit would ruin my afternoon.

Pointing at the tray only identifies the main item, not what was added later. A quiet time would be easier. Still, this counter is only open during the rush. I want a clear yes or no before the seller starts serving it.

The app pin appears to sit in a car park rather than at the lockers. The message may be right and the map old, or the reverse. I want the parcel, not a tour of every doorway on the block.

We will all order; the concern is space rather than trying to sit for free. The conversation is informal, but it does need a corner away from the doorway. I can give the cafe an exact time and expected length of stay.
