Chapter 14 *How the Rich Man isn't Rich*

*Some scenes may be sensitive to certain audience, please be advised*

Mr. Clone: "Everything is going good so far Mr. Boss."

Kazu: "You don't need to call me boss, I already told you this."

Mr. Clone: "Well technically you are my boss, so I think I will haha."

Kazu: "Haha, ok Toshi."

(Reo and Selene walked downstairs together.)

Selene: "Hey, Kazu. So how is it on that money we owe that one guy."

Kazu: "Oh uh, not too good. It looks like I don't have enough money to pay him all at once."

Reo: "Ha, I thought you were rich."

Kazu: "Well I am, sort of. Things have been kind of hard lately. I mean sure we've been getting lots of crime to get paid for, but I've been busy with more than just money."

Reo: "Like?"

Kazu: "Paying for that beach."

Selene: "Oh, how much was it?"

Kazu: "Well usually for one person to go it's not too much, but all of us was around 800,000 yen."

Reo: "You just had to go to that beach."

Kazu: "I Was trying to help morale. I didn't know you guys would attack him and cover yourself in tanning lotion."

Taku: "I don't know how much to put on."

(Taku walked in with a towel on and wet hair. He was still pretty tan.)

Taku: "I thought the more lotion the better the tan."

Reo: "And where did that get you,"

Taku: "Oh, shut up damn it! Can't you see I'm busy trying to wash off this fake tan. Not everyone is lucky with a tan like yours."

Reo: "This is my skin tone idiot."

Taku: "Oh, well still."

Kazu: "Taku, calm down. Just go upstairs and try to wash it off again."

Taku: "Fine! I'll go take my fifth shower of the day."

(Taku stomped upstairs.)

Mr.Clone: "Woah, that outburst wasn't very manly."

Kazu: "Yeah, there's not a lot of manly people here."

(Kazu pulled out his phone and looked through his finances.)

Kazu: *sigh* "So let's see, if we all work really hard this week we can get 100,000 yen. So if we do that for about two or so months we'll pay him off."

Selene: "And be out of debt?"

Kazu: "Uh, no. We would still be in debt, but if we kept on working like that for 3 more months afterwards, we would be out of debt."

Reo: "Ugh, can't we think of something else."

Selene: "Reo's right. There has to be a faster way to get this money."

Dai: "I have an idea."

(Dai walked into the room smiling.)

Kazu: "Yeah? What do you got Dai?"

Dai: "Well you might love me for this one, but what about... a bake sale."

Reo; "Huh?"

Dai: "A bake sale. We all make tasty treats and then people pay us for them."
