Take Me Or Leave Me - RENT (musical)

Mai's cell phone buzzed. She grabbed it and flipped it open in one motion, not even bothering to check the Caller ID.

"We have a duel tomorrow," she said threateningly "Think of that before you give me an excuse."

"Geez, for all the things I've heard about you Mai, you're no fun at all," Vivian complained. "Look, the guy I'm talking to has a nice friend--really, this time, I swear--"

"No, Vivian," Mai said immediately.

"You have to get out of there SOMETIME," Vivian pointed out. "Mai, you do nothing but duel and stay cooped up in the hotel room. Seriously, get out and live a little bit."

"Just be back by a reasonable time," Mai said angrily, snapping the phone shut. Vivian shrugged, wondering what kind of a guy could've made Kujaku Mai run from the world.
