"Aw come on babe, I said I was sorry!" exclaimed a male porcupine yelling outside an apartment window.
"Go away Lance!" yelled a female porcupine out the window to her now ex-boyfriend Lance.
"Ash come on, she meant nothing to me! You're the one I love!" exclaimed Lance at the top of his lungs pleading.
"I'm not having this argument, hit the road!" exclaimed Ash as she shut her window.
Lance realised he wasn't getting anywhere and walked away in a huff. Ash went back to her computer in hopes to search for a gig that now called for a solo act, those were often hard to come by because nothing called for a solo guitarist everything was bands really. Ash decided to go for a walk and she brought her guitar with her, she liked to carry her guitar at times because she never knew where inspiration would strike. Ash was cautious leaving her apartment because she knew Lance was in the area and she didn't want to bump into him at all, walking the streets Ash took in the big city from all honking cars to all the foot traffic. She started thinking to herself about maybe writing a song. She was pondering on what to write when all of a sudden she heard a loud grumbling...her stomach, she was hungry.
"I'm hungry" Ash thought to herself...told ya.
Ash checked her wallet and after deducting her rent for her apartment, she had just enough to get a pizza pie and a beverage. She walked to her favortie pizza parlor when she noticed a block before the pizza place was the construction of a new restaurant called Luke's Sports Bar & Grill. It was a restaurant littered with sports memorabilia, a bar and booths for patrons to sit. She checked out some of the signs in the windows;
GRAND OPENING NEXT WEEK AUGUST 27th!

One sign caught Ash's attention and her eye's widened at the sign;
GUITARIST WANTED FOR BAND, PREVIOUS GUITARIST WAS A TOTAL TOOL! INQUIRE WITHIN OR CALL DEREK AT 555-827-2000!
Ash without hesitation pulled out her cellphone and dialed the number, the phone rang a couple of times and Derek picked up;
"Derek speaking" answered Derek.
"Yes, hi Derek? My name is Ash and I was calling about the guitarist ad in the window" said Ash.
"Alright, so I take it you're a guitarist? Duh...ok so I've been holding interviews for other guitarists and so far they've all stunk to high hell. Come in to the place tomorrow at 1pm and I'll give you the basic rundown and we'll see how you are as a guitarist." replied Derek.
"Tomorrow at one is perfect!" exclaimed Ash.
"Looking forward to it" replied Derek as he hung up.
Ash was pretty excited for the next day and she went home to practice. Meanwhile Lance now living with Becky walked into her place after unsuccessfully trying to reconcile with Ash, he lay on the couch and pulled out his guitar and began to strum random chords. He heard the door creak open, it was his current girlfriend Becky wearing a blue denim coat and striped shirt, she was on her cellphone;
"Alright, 1:30pm it is tomorrow...I really appreciate this after everything, alright thanks...bye" said Becky as she hung up her cellphone and entered her apartment with a bag of clothes.
"Hey babe" said Lance as he got up off the couch and threw his arms open for a hug.
Becky was aggravated because she had a long day and was even more ticked to see Lance on the couch another day, unemployed.
"Don't hey babe me right now, I had a busy day and I wanna relax" scoffed Becky.
"Whoa babe, what's got you in a bunch?" questioned Lance.
"Oh, gee the fact that you're still unemployed and that you promised me you'd get a job!" exclaimed Becky.
"Heyyy, I told you I've been trying" said Lance slyly.
"Well apparently not hard enough, but don't fret I've set you up with three interviews tomorrow...one is at a restaurant as a bus boy, the other is as a porter for a small office building and the third I had to call in a favor from an ex-boyfriend!" said Becky cross.
"So what's behind door number three?" asked Lance about the third option.
"If you must know, my ex is looking for a guitarist for his band because he and his former had a falling out" replied Becky.
"Oh yeah that sounds like fun...the guitarist thing not the falling out part" chuckled Lance.
"Also I got you a shirt, tie and dress pants for your interviews tomorrow" said Becky as she laid out a black button down shirt, black dress pants and a blue tie on the couch.
"You're so thoughtful babe...now what's for dinner?" asked Lance.
Becky glared at Lance angrily.
"Why don't I order pizza instead?" suggested Lance.
"Fine" huffed Becky as she handed Lance her credit card so he could order Pizza.
