Not-So Rockin’ Beats
Inside Melody’s garage…
“Alright, let’s try it from the top,” said Melody.
“Isn’t this enough practice, Melody?” asked Tuneful.
“If we are to win the next Battle of the Bands, we must keep practicing, right?” asked Melody.
“I guess you’re right,” said Tuneful.
“Well could we at least limit the number of practices, today?” asked Half-Note. I have lots of homework to do.
“Alright, we’ll do one more and that’s it,” said Melody. One, two, one, two three! The ponies play and sing Sweet Music. Alright, I think we’re ready!
“That’s good, my feet hurt,” said Tuneful.
“Yeah, I’m kind of out of breath myself,” said Melody. See you all tomorrow, right?
“Yup, see ya,” said the others. The next day…
“Alright, where is my cassette player?” asked Melody.
“Didn’t you have it?” asked Tuneful.
“I did but now it’s missing and someone else has it,” said Melody.
“Well I haven’t seen it,” said Tuneful.
“Neither have I,” said Half-Note walking over.
“Which one of you has it?” asked Melody.
“Why would we steal your cassette player?” asked Sweet Notes.
“Hmm, maybe because I’ve been the one actually having you all practicing day in and day out?” asked Melody.
“What, are you crazy?” asked Half-Note. We’re your friends, Melody, we wouldn’t take something of yours or anyone else’s.
“True, but anyone could be responsible for the crime,” said Melody.
“Well you can count us out,” said Tuneful, We’re breaking up from this band. They walk away.
“What have I done?” asked Melody depressed. The next Battle of the Bands contest is only a week away and without the Rockin’ Beats, we can’t possibly win. I need to remember all the possibilities instead of jumping to conclusions. I must go talk to them and apologize. She walks off. Meanwhile…
“Anyone seen Melody?” asked Ace. She’s going to be late for soccer practice.
“I’ll tell you where she is,” said Sweet Notes. She’s too busy blaming others for stealing her own cassette player.
“Maybe you’re looking at this the wrong way,” said Sweetheart. Maybe perhaps she didn’t mean to say what she did and now feels sorry.
“Well it would take a lot to get me back in her band,” said Sweet Notes.
“Same here,” said Tuneful.
“Yup, me three,” said Half-Note.
“I think we should all go see Melody,” said Sweetheart.
“Well I’m not going until she admits she was wrong,” said Sweet Notes.
“Ditto,” said Tuneful and Half-Note.
“Well I’m going to see Melody myself,” said Sweetheart. She walks off. Elsewhere…
“Wait, this is….my cassette player!” said Melody. How did it get here? Now that I’ve found it, it’s time to make up for not trusting my friends. She races off and stops when she sees Sweetheart. Sweetheart, what are you doing here?
“I came to see you,” said Sweetheart.
“I found my cassette player and now am off to make things right again and get my band back together,” said Melody.
“I will truly go with you,” said Sweetheart. At the soccer field…
“Guys, I….,” said Melody. Her friends turn away. I ...I wanted to say I’m sorry for not trusting you all. I didn’t think that maybe I had misplaced it and as it turns out, I did. If you all can find it somewhere in your hearts to forgive me….
“If you’ll start trusting us more and allow less practicing on nights when any of us has tons of homework, we’ll forgive you.
“Done,” said Melody.
“Well then, we are back in your band,” said Tuneful. Let’s go win that contest!
