Dana stayed in Alice’s apartment, while Alice was at work, and had all her current documents sorted out by bank, dates, earnings, losses, and "debts" as they were. While she was pacing, Dana was starting to get very worried about her job interview. They hadn’t called in a week. She stayed away from Body Builders so that she wouldn’t seem pushy and blow her chances. But she had bills to pay on her VISA, auto insurance, medical expenses, and her apartment bills. There really was no rest with the IRS.

Talking to herself, Dana said, ‘All right. Let’s see. It’s been a week and not a call. Not a message. Just an internet video, going out to lunch, imitating Pacino and Tomei, and one full day of wild lezzy sex. Yep. I guess I’ve spent more money than I’ve earned. Of course to earn money I’d need to have a job. Meanwhile, I’m asking my dad for a loan, going to a gym on a paid membership which I can’t even get out of for 3 more years, and taking Alice out for meals. Mmmmmmm. Yep. I’ve definitely been spending, spending, spending.’

Any more pacing and she’d have a circle in the floor. She couldn’t just put things up on ebay or amazon. Her mother would have a royal cow and be the first one to cancel the auctions. Getting on Alice’s phone, Dana decided to take matters into her own hands and call Body Builders. when she called, Steve answered.

Steve answered, ‘Hello. Thank you for calling Body Builders. This is Steve. How can I help you?’

Dana answered, ‘Hello, Steve. This is Dana Fairbanks.’

She said it in a very calm and chipper voice. Dana set her own feelings aside and just got right down to business.

Steve replied, ‘Hello, Dana. How are you doing?’

Dana replied, ‘I’m doing good. I had some free time and I thought I’d check and see how everything at Body Builders is going.’

Steve said, ‘We are managing very well. We’re done remodeling. Thank you for asking.’

Dana said, ‘I just now remembered something. It slipped my mind. Umm, I was also wondering if you were still hiring for a trainer.’

Steve looked up and realized a very important thing. Steve said, ‘No. Not anymore really. There’s something I should tell you.’
