The girls had filed into one of the conference rooms. Everyone was seated. Yossie stood at the front of the room with a dry erase board behind her. She turned to write.
Thud. Snort.
She turned around the see Miki on her right and Tsuji on her left trying as hard as possible to control themselves. Both were turning red from holding back their laughter. Some of the other girls had smiles on their faces. Yossie glared, and turned back to the board.
Thud.
When she snapped back around, she saw both shaking and one of the pictures on the wall swaying back and forth. Now most of the other girls were adverting their eyes as the tried to stifle thier laughter.
The third time Yossie turned to write on the board, the thud happened again, it was followed by a small yell. She turned around.
"Guys!"
The girls looked up at her, blank expressions, and then started to snicker again. She turned. The forth thud was unlike the others. It was a dull hollow sound that echoed throughout the room followed by Miki, Tsuji, and the other girls trying their damnest to stop laughing. At the same time, a disheveled Yuuko opened the door.
Yossie turned to look at her. Her hair was a mess.
Yuuko kept her eyes on the back of the room. Miki and Tsuji had tears in their eyes. Yuuko started to giggle.
"Why are they" She turned to look at Yossie. "throwing coconuts at each other?"
Yossie looked absolutely distraught .
"Guys! Focus!"
Yuuko walked towards the back of the room. She paused and looked at the coconut that had lodged itself in the wall behind Tsuji. She started to giggle with the pair and she took her seat next to them.
Thud.Thud.Smack.Thud.
"Guys!" Yossie turned around.
The three of them looked like school children who misbehave everytime the teacher turns their back, which essentially is what they were.
"Erika is missing!"
"So what? More solo lines for me." Yui bellowed in something rivaling Yuuko's yankee tone, as she turned back and forth slowly in her chair, slouched down.
"Thats the right attidue. You keep that up and you'll go places Yuki." Yuuko advised.
"It's Yui."
"Whatever, snowflake.*"
"This is a serious problem!" Yossie interjected. Trying to get this back on track.
"No! You know what is a serious problem? All those fucking coconuts!" Ayaka yelled from her seat on the left side of the table.
"You know, I though the same thing '99. Fucking Coconuts." Yuuko declared.
Kaori and Nacchi started laughing.
Ayaka looked at at the ceiling.
"You don't understand. I got the invoice. It's a lot of fucking coconuts."
"Well....." Mari launched into song. "You've got a lovely bunch of coconuts!"
Some one else who had seen the film followed it up.
"Have a banana!"
"Like I am going to be stuck with five truck loads of cocounts. Do you know how expensive that is?"
"It can't be that bad." Goto began.
"It can't be that bad says the working woman. Ask yourself what I have done in the past two years. Not only am I stuck with a lot of fucking coconuts I can't pay for the fucking coconuts."
"You know I've never seen this side of you before." Mai began. "It's kinda hot."
"Hey, why don't you start joking with me when I don't have five truck loads of coconuts to deal with?"
The intercom clicked to life.
"Ayaka, there is a deliver for you."
Ayaka stood up and forcefully slammed her hands down on the table.
"Hey! I wonder what that could be. Hmmm. I don't know! I'll give you two guesses but you'll only need one!" Ayaka threw her arms in the air and slammed the door shut behind her. The girls could hear her stamp down the hallway.
"I love it when complete dispair and confusion turns to straight up anger." Mari said.
"Yeah, it's pretty damn entertaining." Miki concluded.
* Yuki is japanese for snow. Hence the snowflake.
Here is the Coconut song for you guy's who haven't heard it.
http://www.twitter.com/?d=CM0N6ITFI got the idea from French Class. We found some pebbles on the floor and started throwing them at each other when the teacher wasn't looking.One girl kept missing everytime and it would hit the wall making a loud noise.
