oyfriend trying t'scare ya!"<br />

"He was here, stoopid. You know, now that I think of it, they<br />

could have downloaded anything they wanted from my laptop, I have<br />

DSL."<br />

"Yeah, yeah, whatever," Ng said, standing in the middle of the<br />

rearranged chaos. He disappeared into the martial arts studio, so Ula<br />

turned on the front desk monitor and logged on. She found her site and<br />

began watching one of her bio clips.<br />

"Fuck, fuck and fuck!" Ng yelled from the practice room. "It's<br />

just fuckin' gone!"<br />

He ran back in, shoved Ula aside, fumbled through a drawer in<br />

the desk and retrieved a small pearl handled revolver.<br />

"Oh, calm down. See? You found it."<br />

"This piece of shit? The automatic's gone! This thing's a toy!"<br />

“Does it shoot bullets or water?" Ula asked, nonchalant but still<br />

nervous.<br />

"Oh, it's a real gun, alright! Shit, I've had this ba<strong>by</strong> since my<br />

Garden Grove days." He kissed it. "But it's not for serious business, it's<br />

you know, for shooting jealous lovers in the coglioni, huh, huh."<br />

He slung it around and aimed it at her groin.<br />

"Ha! I think that gun's a little small for his endowments," she<br />

said, unflinching.<br />

"It could have 'im singin' soprano for good, girl, you know it."<br />

"Why didn't you surprise us with that before?"<br />

He scratched his head, looking around. "Fuck, I am so dead,<br />

man."<br />

"It's no big deal, relax, you'll make more disks, it'll just take a<br />

little time, that's all."<br />

"You don't get it do you! I gotta deliver, I got customers. If<br />

they're not happy, I'm not happy. I am so fucked!" He kicked his<br />

<strong>com</strong>bat boot into the plywood of the reception desk, destroying it.<br />

Ula watched from the side, her arms crossed in front of her<br />

chest. She tried to edge her way to the door but Ng's arm shot out and<br />

grabbed her.<br />

"Hey, wait a minute baldy, not so fast! I need you right here,<br />

girl, cuz we're gonna get to work now! <strong>In</strong>to the mocap, c'mon."<br />

He dragged her <strong>by</strong> her empty sleeve into the motion capture<br />

studio.<br />

"Okay, honey bunch, show time, here's your costume, strip, put<br />

it on, you know the routine. Lube's over there."<br />
