Challenge: Duo in Trouble contest in May 2022.

Prompt: "Just remember if we get caught, you're deaf and I don't speak English."


Once upon a time, two best friends from New Orleans, 

who came from a poor background, 

were going to the Big Apple, 

to make something out of their lives. 


Little did they know, 

that life would never be the same afterwards.

They were on their way to New York by bus.


They were talking their plans out, 

on how many jobs they were going to apply for,

 and hopefully get their big break in the long run. 


Jonas and Jerome had been friends, 

since elementary school. 

They had the same dreams of being one day very successful, 

in whatever they set their minds to accomplish.


They were both nineteen, 

they graduated high school, 

and felt that New Orleans,

 had nothing more to offer them. 


As they did not have any aspiration, 

to go to college or to be musicians. 

Their minds were set on the big apple, 

to become actors.
