Gold chain

"So who exactly is this client I'm supposed to be meeting today", I ask my manager. "Some new rising rapper. A real hot head", he tells me.

Business has been going fairly well for us. Ever since that info got leaked, we've been having more artists wanting the Ghost to write their songs.

"And why do we have to keep meeting by the studio all the time", I ask my manager. "It's a safer bet, as Layla says", my manager tells me. "Oh! I see we're in good books with her", I exclaim. "Yes after YOU almost messed it all up", he yells to me. "Ey. These things happen", I tell him with my hands lifted up. "Just behave yourself okay. And why do you keep swinging in that chair like a three year old", my manager asks me.

"What! I get bored waiting for these artists you know. And what's this guys rap name anyways", I ask him while still swinging in the chair. "LK2", my manager says. I start to giggle. "Don't you dare", my manager exclaims.

"Okay, I'll keep this one to myself", I assure him.

LK2 eventually walks in, and boy was he cocky as hell.  "I don't really do this, it's just I'm not in the mood right now to write my own music", he tells me. "Well thanks for that information", I tell him in a sarcastic tone.

"So what you looking for", I ask him. "Didn't your manager tell you already. Or you guys aren't that prepared", LK2 exclaims. I look at my manager with a concerned look, then look back at LK2.

"Listen man, can you stop playing with us like we're your boys. What do you want bruh", I say.  "Hahaha nah. You're not talking to me like you know me like that", LK2 replies with an annoyed chuckle.  "I'd prefer we actually never met in the first place", I mumble to myself. But LK2 happens to hear me mumble. "Oh nah! You're definitely not talking to me like you know me like that", he exclaims. 

I look at my manager again, and turn back to Lk2. With widen eyes I exclaim, "and you're not about to say the same thing twice like I want to hear it again". The tension in the room starts to rise. "I'm too big of an artist to be dealing with this kind of shit or people", LK2 yells at me. "Correction, you're a rising artist coming to me for help so you don't reach your peak so early on", I tell him in a sharp tone.

LK2 starts moving closer to me, ready to attack. "You know I'm a nice guy most of the time, but don't push me kid", he states while looking me dead in the eye. I look at my manager one last time and say, "well I did try". I turn back to LK2 and exclaim, "bitch please". That seems to really tick him off, and he moves even closer. I notice his gold chain hanging on his neck and tell him, "that's a nice piece you got there. Let me get a closer look at it". Soon after I say that, I grab his chain and use it to throw him down to the ground. His head hits the floor and bounces twice.

"Is he dead", my manager asks. "Let me check", I tell him and soon after kicking  LK2. "Nah! Just knocked out", I tell him.  "Was that really necessary", my manager asks me.  "He kind of deserved it", I tell him. My manager raises his eyebrows and says, "fair enough". I start to walk out of the studio, but my manager stops me midway asking me, "where you off to now".

"Clearly nothing productive is happening here, so I'm going to buy something to make me forget this whole fun experience", I tell him.

I walk out of the studio.
