A Drama In Prime Time


After playing on a fair ground all day as a psychological assistant big Tina was innocently looking for bull when suddenly, a cry was heard in the distance.

“That’s my cue,” she mumbled to the dark apartment before leaving the television set to go outside where she saw Jenna leaving a cab that just dropped her off on the street.

“You know why my bad boss is out of the money?”

Big Tina just looked at the situation then asked, followed by answering “you’re looking for bull? I have it DVRd.”

“No,” Jenna commented storming into the house and grabbed a bottle of vodka that was inside the cabinet, “Our senior levelers who were really mature when they abruptly started claiming our financial holdings with Indicia was out of the money.”

“Your company is going out of business?” Big Tina who had academic achievements spread all over her home office wall inquired.

“I do not know but as you know we only got into this international business relation to stop war,” Jenna explained the African transaction pouring a drink.

“And it did,” Big Tina reminded her while picking up a cocktail napkin, “Jenna o Vodka,” she noticed the stain that developed after a few rounds splattered.

“So,” Jenna continued to distribute information, “when this all spilled there was an inquiry and I gave my confederate yell, and”

“Bad boss claimed a foul then disqualified you,” Big Tina finished the report watching her roommate head over to the couch.

“Even know it was late in the day with alizee blowing,” Jenna was unleashing emotions crying like an adult baby, “and its going come out soon that these Pythagorean know it all said in their Italian smart Alec tongue that ‘andianna’ which translates ‘we go” which meant ‘me and my staff’, they are dead when somebody puts heat on the situation’.

“The important thing, Jenna was you stood your turf and put on a good show.”

Grabbing one of the pillows Jenna thought about it, “yeah I am a good maiden in all this and you want to know something my classic bow ties that I created which got me noticed,” she paused, “when I checked my fun finder app which tells me who is having fun finding my creative contributions to society those bow ties sky rocketed after I left, so that disqualification got my classic bow ties back on the board with a nice show price that will be in my severance.”

Coming over to the couch then sitting next to Jenna with the intention of applying the Ferber treatment big Tina smiled before giving her a good night hug.
