FEUD

Episode 3:

And it begins...

(Yasuraka and Maktoto’s room.  An alarm is going off.  Both girls are lying in bed; neither move.  After awhile, Yasuraka opens her blood-shot eyes.  Makoto rolls over.  Yasuraka drags herself out of bed and walks over to Makoto.)

Yasuraka:  (knocking Makoto out of her bed)  WAKE UP!  (Makoto falls to the floor, dragging her sheets with her.  She does not wake up.  Yasuraka slams off the alarm.  Makoto jumps up)

Makoto:  Hey!  Why did you do that?  (Yasuraka stares at her, and then walks back to her bed and falls asleep)  Hmpth!  Rude!

*********************************************************

(it’s morning.  Makoto is walking to class)

Makoto:  (reading a piece of paper)  Karokee Hall...hmm..(she looks up)  Ah, ehre it is!

(walking into classroom.  There are a tonf of students talking to each other.  “Hey Jen!”  “How was your summer?”  “I’m so glad we’re in the same class again!” and laughter.  Makoto sits quietly in the back of the classroom of about 200 students.)

Voice:  Hey, Makoto!  Is that seat free?

Makoto:  Titony?  (nods her head; Titony sits next to her)

Titony:  Isn’t it ironic, that we have the same class together?  Hey, Makoto, what’s your major?

Makoto:  It’s fashion design.

Titony:  That was the major of my ex-girlfriend.

Makoto:  (thoughts)  Yah!

Titony:  My girlfriend now is majoring in chemisty.

Makoto:  (thoughts)  Boo!  L  Oh, come on Makoto!  Don’t be selfish!  You still have Deskin!  (squints face) and that’s love forever!

Titony:  Um, Makoto?  You ok?

Makoto:  (snaps back to reality)  Yes, yes!  (does a nervous laugh)  Hahahaha!

Titony:  Ok....

Professor:  Are you two done back there?  Because I would really like to go over the syllabus now.

Titony & Makoto:  (embarrassedly)  Yes, sir, sorry!

**********************************************************

Yasuraka:  (walking to class)  It’s so nice to sleep in!  And it’s such a beautiful day out!  (walks past Ksumi)  Good-morning, Kasumi!

Kasumi:  Morning, Yasuraka.  What class do you have now?

Yasuraka:  Introductory to Chemistry.  You?

Kasumi:  I have history.  Well, I got to go.  Hope your first class goes well for you, Yasuraka.

Yasuraka:  Same to you.  (Kasumi walks away.  Yasuraka opens the door to a building.  Like Makoto, she enters a room full of people talking to one another.  Yasuraka finds a seat and puts down her backpack)

Wasabi:  (just coming in and sits down next to Yasuraka)  Oooooo!  I like chemisty.  Maybe something will blow up!  (does a nervous laugh)  Kaboom!

Yasuraka:  (worried tear drop)  Uh...

Molly:  Hey, Yasuraka!  (Yasuraka turns around)

Yasuraka:  Molly!  (Molly puts down her backpack)

Molly:  Looks like we have the same class together.  (sits down next to her.  Two girls behind Wasabi are gabbing)

Girl 1:  I heard Dr. Carantow is cute!

Girl 2:  Really?

Girl 1:  Yah!  My RA had him last year and told me.  (they start giggling)

Wasabi:  Hmmm...(turns to Yasuraka and Molly)  I just heard Dr.Carrottop is really sexy and he isn’t married!

Yaruraka:  Dr....

Molly:  Carrotop?  Isn’t it Carantow?

Wasabi:  OOO!  Here he comes!  (everyone turns around to see a cute professor; well, cute for a guy who’s in his upper 30’s.  All the girls in the class start googling over him while the guys groan annoyingly)

One guy:  Give me a break...

Carantow:  Good morning.  I am Dr. Carantow...

Wasabi:  (interrupting)  Can I call you Dr. Carrottop?

Carantow:  Um...no...

Wasabi:  Well, I am anyway!  Good-morning, Dr. Carrottop!

Yasuraka:  (whispering to Molly)  His hair isn’t even orange...

Wasabi:  (loudly)  SO???

Carantow:  Well, I see wehre my troublemakers will be this year.  (Yasuraka and Molly blush shamefully.  Wasabi grins happily)

*****************************************************

(lunch; Yasuraka and Molly are carrying their trays to a table)

Yasuraka:  Well, this has started off to be a wonderful day.

Molly:  Don’t worry, Yasuraka.  I know you didn’t meant to...

Flashback

Carantow:  I’m passing around some instruments that you will be seeing a lot in this course.

Yasuraka:  (picks up a beaker)  It’s just a beaker.  Everyone should know that by now.  (while handing it to Molly, Yasuraka drops the beaker onto the floor, where it smashes.  Yasuraka backs up, swings her hand, and knocks other instruments onto the floor.)

End of Flashback

Molly:  Dr. Carantow said not to worry about it.

Yasuraka:  I destroyed half the lab equipment!

Molly:  At least you didn’t blow anything up.  (Yasuraka covers her face and groans)

**********************************************************

(Makoto is on the computer typing an e-mail to Deskin)

Makoto:  (thoughts)  To my beloved Deskin, I just finished my first day of classes.  College so far has been...interesting.  I love it here, though it would be better if you were here with me.  The only thing I hate here is my roommate.  She is the most annoying person....(starts typing furiously)  I hate her with a passion!  Yasuraka...Yasuraka...that girl needs to get run over by a car and die!  (does a little sigh and calms down)  Anyways...please write back soon.  I cannot wait to hear from you and miss you more than words can ever say.  Love, Makoto.  (she clicks the send button)

Yasuraka:  (reading a book on her bed; pears over the pages at Makoto)  You done with your classes, Makoto?

Makoto:  Yeah.  What’s it to you?

Yasuraka:  Well, I have some good news for you.

Makoto:  (looking away from her computer at Makoto)  Hmm?  What?  (Yasuraka slides off her bed and walks over to Makoto.  She then shoves a flyer in front of Makoto’s face.  Makoto takes it and starts reading)  This is about switching roommates...

Yasuraka:  Yup!  I figured this is something we both would be happy about.

Makoto:  We need to get some paper work from our RA...(both girls dash out of the doom and into the hall.  They immediately start banging on Venora’s door)

Yasuraka & Makoto:  Venora!!

Venora:  (opens the door; yawning)  What?  (both girls shove the flyer in front of her)

Yasuraka:  We want to switch roommates.

Makoto:  I can’t live with someone so bossy.

Yasuraka:  And I can’t live with a rich snob.

Makoto:  Hey!  You’re the one who started this whole mess!

Yasuraka:  Excuse me?  I think you’re all mixed up...

Venora:  Stop.  (both girls quiet down and turn to Venora)  I’m not giving you the paperwork.

Makoto:  But...

Yasuraka:  You can’t do that!

Venora:  As an RA, I decide what I can and can’t do.  I think one of the most important benefits of rooming with someone you don’t like is to learn how to get along with them.  (Yasuraka and Makoto stare at her, open-mouthed)  Here’s the deal.  If you tow are at the point of killing each other by the end of the fall semester, I’ll give you the forms and sign them.

Makoto:  But we’re about to kill each other now!

Yasuraka:  Yeah!

Venora:  Well, that’s the final decision.  If you wish to argue more, I have more chores you could do for me.  (with that, Venora slams the door in their faces)

**********************************************************

(in Molly’s dorm room)

Molly:  So, Venora wouldn’t let you switch roommates?

Yasuraka:  (groans)  Nooo...(she flops herself on Molly’s bed)

Molly:  Well, maybe you two will eventually get along.

Yasuraka:  I doubt it.  She threw all of my clothes out of my suitcase and ripped my beautiful poster of Kahol Meiyuu!  (tear drop over Molly)

Molly:  Um, well, you did throw her clothes out the window, remember?

Yasuraka:  (ignoring her)  It’s less than four months though.  I’m sure time will pass by quickly.

Molly:  Yeah, maybe...
