How, how, how!

Carmela crashed onto her bed for the hundredth time, pounding her head against the pillow. How the fuck did she trip? She has never, legit never , fallen during a performance. She didn't want to admit it, but yeah it was because of him. That curly haired asshole.

"Carmela? Theres a call for you!" Aunt Kass's voice echoed into her room.

WAIT. Was it... could it... but how.... WHAT WAS HAPPENING! No way-there's no fucking way.

"OKAY! I'M COMING! WHO IS IT AUNT KASS?!" She blared with a shaky voice, and jumped out of her room and sprinted down the hallway into the kitchen. Aunt Kass was standing at the counter in a robe with wet red-brown hair, mixing eggs in a bowl.

Carmela slid over to her with her socks. She put a hand on her thudding heart as Aunt Kass held the phone to her.

"Its the bank!" She whispered.

What? Carmela's heart dropped to her feet as she snatched the phone angrily. She held it to her ear.

"Hello? Its Carmela Lee."

"Hello Carmela, we have unfortunate news regarding your credit tax statement. Due to the extreme overtime of your tax payments, we were forced to empty out your account and shut it down. Deeply sorry, Carmela, but I'm afraid your credit card is no longer valid and you'll have to make another account..."

Oh, no. Oh, shit. If it was possible, Carmela's heart sunk deeper than her feet. How could that happen... How could she be so careless? Aunt Kass is gonna be pissed as hell...

"Hello? Carmela are you still there?"

"Uhm-uh-yes! I, um, understand. Thanks."

She hung up the phone and stared at Aunt Kass in shock who stared back the same way.

"What happened mija? What was that about?"

Carmela gulped. "They shut down my-my, uh, credit card."

Aunt Kass clutched her hair.

"What?! Carmela, why?!"

"'Cause, we... wedidn'tpaythebills." She mumbled.

"Speak up!"

"We didn't pay the bills!"

"The bills? Why didn't you pay the bills? You just kept spending and spending and spending, without telling me to pay the damn bills!" Aunt Kass sighed and rubbed her eyes.

"Im sorry Aunt Kass. Sorry."

She went around to her aunt and hugged her from the side, laying her chin on her shoulder.

"Do you know what this means for us, Carmela? I've taken out enough loans to get  you the card, and now its just... gone. What are we gonna do niña? Do you have some kind of hidden lottery we could use?" Aunt Kass joked, but Carmela could hear the annoyance and weariness behind it.

"Ill help us. If I get this job, we-"

Aunt Kass shrugged her off.

"Carmela, iyou get this job. IF. How many jobs have you applied to? How many said they didn't want a rookie? How many Carmela? We've waited long enough, why dont you just go to college? I could take out another loan. It would be easier to get a job!"
