"Oh come on! I didn't even put that much pressure on it!" Shawn yelled. He put his electric banjo down.
"This is like the sixth time it broke this mouth. I really need to get a new one." Shawn said frustrated with his instrument. Shawn layed on his bed for a bit then look at his money jar. It was full and if he's lucky he might be able to get one. Last time he counted his money he had 250.25$. He knows that they can cost up to thousands of dollars. He grabbed his jar and emptied it on his nightstand and when he was done counting he had the same amount so he put the money in his wallet and went outside. Like as usual the streets were mostly empty. There was one your to people but that's about all. His mom was still at work so he had time to get across town to get one. If he can. He started to walk down the sidewalk and half way to the shop he see's this creepy old man in a alleyway. The man looked poor and had nuthing on him. Shawn just kept walking not caring at all about the man. When he got to the shop he Entered it and was greeted by a friendly face.
"Oh hello Shawn. Are you here to just look again." The shop keeper said with a smile.
"I want to buy something. Do you have any electric banjos. My won't stop braking." Shawn replied with.
"Yes we do. what's your price range this time" The shop keep said.
"250$ this time." Shawn said hoping to get a deal.
"oh sorry buddy. You need 256 more dollars, for my cheapest banjo. Well unless you want to work here without pay for about a mouth." The shop keeper said.
"No I'm good. I guess I'll see you next time smokey" Shawn said as he turned his back to her ready to leave.
"that's not my name. My name's Aria. How many more times will I have to say it." The shop keeper said.
"Ok Aria. Have a good day and tell the real shop keeper I said hi. After all just because he's in the hospital dose not really mean it's yours. Your still to young to own it and quit smoking it smells." Shawn said then left. As he walked back he was upset to fine no new banjo that he could get. Then out of the blue someone stole his wallet.
"Hay!" Shawn said angrily and chased after him. He chaced the person down the alleyway. It was the same man he saw earlier. After a couple left and right turns he finally trapped the man against the wall with to buildings making it so the man cannot run to the left or to the right. Shawn was pissed.
"Give me back my dam money shithead" Shawn yelled.
"Hay... hay no need to tell buddy. Hay why don't I make you a deal" The old man said with a sped up sentence.
"Give me it back freak" Shawn said as he took a nuther step closer.
"I give it back after you make a deal buddy" the old man said scared.
"I'm not your buddy! I don't care about a deal just give it back" Shawn said ready to attack.
"Then no!" the old man said as he quickly ran passed Shawn. As he chaced him again he was soon out of breath.
"Fine old man let's make a deal!" Shawn said as he stopped. The old man also stopped and turned around.
"Now that's what I'm talking about. So kid what do you want!" the old man said.
"shouldn't I be asking you that question" Shawn said while catching his breath.
"just answer me" the old man yelled
"a Electric banjo but what dose that have to do with a deal" Shawn said clueless.
"If you give me this money. I will get you one and give back any money I have not used while getting you one. You just have to give me three days." the old man said
"First off I can't trust you. Secondly that's not enuff money." Shawn stated.
"Do you want one your not"the old man said.
"I do but-" Shawn was cut off.
"then it's settled!" the old man took the money out of the wallet and threw the wallet back at shawn. The old man then ran off.
"Wait!What!" Shawn was pissed. He walked back from where he came from ready to start a fight.
"I can't believe I let that old fool take my money I worked so hard to get" Shawn mutered on the way home. When Shawn got home he went up to his room and continued to fix his banjo and after that he worked on his school work for the rest of the day.
