#and mizole is right neta is not good at communicating when he needs support or help

[yesyourstalker]

Neta: The store is pretty slow today....aw what the hell..... mahi pick a song!

Mhai:......... rockagilly blues

Neta: okay............pick a song that actually has bass in it......

Mizole: why don't you play one of my songs Caitlin koy

Neta: yeah and feed your ego? No.....Next

Warabi: how about a Squid squad song?

Neta: I've played their music for 3 tours, an award show and album demo that's years of me playing squid squad......I'm done with that. Next

Candie: ohhh play Broken Carol by ink theory!! Their bass is so good!!!

Neta: great choice candie. At least one of you has taste........ Should I use a display?.......nah.... imma use my mans bass... it hasn't been played with in a while...........

(Neta playing ink theory for an hour and a half)

Neta: ahhhh nothing like good jam sesh to relax the nerves........ I need to start playing more. I haven't played a full album in.....a year

Mizole: humph.... don't you have a bass at home

Neta: no.......... no I don't. Holy shit... I don't have another one at home.....I just have the one and it's with ikkan... I guess I need to find another one

Mhai: damn if only there was a place that has a whole wall dedicated to instruments..... Unfortunately we don't know a place like that

Neta:.............hehe.... Shut up....

Mahi: why don't you take ikkan's bass home. The case is broken anyway!

Neta: nooo I can't bring it home.... I don't want to ruin it plus I need it to be here.. brings in customers and for other reasons

Warabi: I don't think ikkan would care about its condition he plays your bass so much the paint is chipping off

Neta: that's because my bass was already old, it was chipping when I gave it to him......I just need to get another one...... I really need to start playing it again. I remember I used to do it all the time........ I just stopped

Mizole: why'd you stop playing anyway.... Like serious playing like you could have been in front roe

Neta: *sigh*...... it's not like I wanted to stop playing it's just.... I stopped playing for reasons........ I got kicked out of front roe......

Mahi: I thought you said you left??

Neta: I did...both happened.. *sigh*..... squid squad went on a small hiatus... I didn't really do anything during that time... Mostly just adjusting to surface life. I made friends, hung out with Pearl... She let me crash in one of her house boats. I met ikkan but we weren't really dating at the time. We were just friends....I don't know... when I don't have anything to do... I just get lost in my own thoughts and stuff.... I started getting depressed and anxious........ Nami called me and they wanted to do a whole rebrand and they wanted me to be a part of it to officially be in the band.... but it was...... I wasn't in a good headspace at the time... I'd show up late, I have to do re-record after re- record, I stopped seeing them outside of work, ichiya started to get on my nerves..

Mizole: he gets on everyone's nerves...

Warabi: that is true

Neta: .........be nice.... He's just passionate ........ Anyway ...I just didn't feel like I was truly a part of the band. I felt like he still saw me as the replacement... I was disposable ... the minute I stoped doing what you wanted he'd get rid of me.... that made my mental health worse. ikkan started to show up more and more and we started getting close and stopped being friends. Of course that got out to the public and Ichiya didn't like that. He thought ikkan was pulling me away from the band and made me turn on them.....he gave me a choice it was either the band or him........ so yeah.... I chose ikkan and ichiya kicked me out. I got really depressed after. I stopped playing and just kinda lost a passion for it..... Lost a passion for everything honestly. I started getting better mentally ikkan was there to support me and that was that. We officially became a couple.... eventually engaged we shared a house and an apartment together and he helped start my business.. my daughter moved in..... we were looking at houses together................. and then he met you and started a band and we had to break up and I moved away.. I left my bass with him

Warabi: what can I say I'm a home wrecker.

Mahi:well it worked out in the end.... You're still seeing him...just long distance

Mizole: All that story told me is that you're terrible at communication..... In confrontation you could kicked his ass like you're bigger than him

Neta: hay mizole? Shut the fuck up.... I'm bigger but he's more successful. He could have blacklisted me if he wanted to..

Candie: that's a sweet story boss....so romantic!!..... maybe ask ikkan for another bass I'm pretty sure he has more then one

Neta: He has more basses than this store!

Candie: and he only plays yours. That's so cute!!!

Mizole: Just take Mahi's you bought it for them technically. It's yours

Mahi: what! No That's mine I play it sometimes

Mizole: babe I say this in the nicest way possible..... You fucking suck at music like it's really bad.... I say this because I care about you and I don't want you to waste your time [kiss]

Mahi:............................... fine

Neta: nice........... You know what? Maybe when you own this store I can sign it, give it back to you and you can put it in the case.....

Mahi: I thought you said you're going to get rid of that case

Neta: well it just has a small crack in it. I can repair it. You know I just need to be careful opening it so it won't-

(CRASH)

Neta: .....break

Warabi:oh shit!

Candy: oh my Cod!!

Mhai: ohhh fuck that's wow

Mizole: hahahahaha

Mahi: babe!

Mizole: sorry.... heheheh

Neta: *inhale** exhale*... That was a lot money.... Ok....... candie can you please bring the broom and the heavy duty trash bags, mahi you stand here make sure no one goes near this mess..... Warabi get the first aid kit.... and paper towel. I think glass got in my hand...... ... Is it bad? ......Please tell me it's not bad

Warabi: It's not bad....... You might need stitches tho

Neta: looks like I have to take ikkan's bass home anyway.. glad that worked out............ I think I'm gonna faint

Epilogue

Ikkan: what do you mean you're in the hospital are you ok?

Neta: there was an incident at work. It's okay I just cut my hand really bad. You want to see the stitches?

Ikkan: yeah..... ewwww
