SOUVENiR.
Halifax, Nova Scotia
The scene opens up in the hotel room of one Andi Snow. Andi, a veteran in the public eye and accomplished wrestler in her own right, had been missing in action for the past couple of years. Since we last saw Andi a few years ago, she seemed to have all but disappeared from public life after a tragic accident left the life of her sister and that of her then unborn child hanging in the balance. However things appear to be looking up as she’s currently mid conversation via Skype with her twin sister, Adrianna. Andi’s currently on her knees, struggling to close an oversized suitcase to no avail while her sister looks on. She’s dressed in a pair of denim short shorts and a vintage black NOTORIOUS B.I.G T-shirt which was tied up around her ribs. Her long light brown hair was pulled high up on her head in a messy ponytail with a few stray pieces framing her face.
Adrianna: “...So anyway, how’s Canada? Are you all settled into your hotel?”
Andi: “Yup!” She says with a long exaggerated grunt. Andi seems a little distracted, as she’s trying her best to zip an overstuffed suitcase. “Halifax is ...nnnnnng…..great!”
Adrianna: “....um...Andi?”
Try as she may, Andi just can’t seem to get that luggage to close.
Andi: “c’mon you bastard!!!” She bites down on her lower lip while tugging the zippers on either side of the suitcase closer together, willing them with all her might to meet in the middle--her efforts futile. “What is it, Adri?”
Adrianna: “What...what are you doing?”
Andi: “What’s it look like i’m doing? I’m packing a bag!” Finally, the two zippers snap together and she’s able to close the suitcase. Andi sighs triumphantly, blowing the few loose locks of hair out of her face. “There! Damn that was like cardio!”
Adrianna: “ ANDI! Focus!”
Andi: “What?!” Andi snaps back to reality after her little mission, turning her attention fully to the laptop with her twin’s baffled face plastered across the screen.
Adrianna: “Why are you packing your bags already? You just got there. You literally just told me you were all settled in. Shouldn’t you be unpacking instead?”
Andi: “Oh that? No, no...I unpacked all my shit hours ago...and anyway, I didn’t say I was packing MY bag...I said I was packing A bag!”
Adrianna: “Ooookay? ...do you wanna tell me whose bag you’re packing?”
Andi: “Wex Lesley’s, duh!”
Adrianna: “Who the hell is that?”
Andi: “I know, right? ...She’s the chick i’m facing in my debut match this week at Honor.”
Adrianna’s eyes close instantly and she presses two fingers on her forehead. A small smile creeps across her lips, and it’s all she can do to let out a little giggle while shaking her head slowly from side to side. Knowing her sister, Adrianna can see where this is going and she’s not at all surprised at the level of petty her twin possesses.
Adrianna: “Andi why are you packing that girl a bag?”
Andi: “I mean after this week NPW is gonna send her ass packin’ anyway, so I figured I'd give her a head start! There’s actually some pretty cool stuff in here. I got her a bunch of cute little souvenirs from Canada so she can remember her very short stay here..Some maple syrup..a moose figurine with a cute little Mountie riding it...a bunch of miniature statues...I got the Brock’s Monument, the South African War Memorial..the Mount Royal Cross...there’s even an adorable tiny Saint Voldymr covered in glitter. I also threw in some travel pamphlets and job applications because..well, she’ll be needing those for sure. ”
Adrianna: “What are you even talking about?”
Andi: “Okay so, if...I mean, WHEN I win this match, then that’s it for her. This is literally her one shot to earn a contract with NPW. So if she loses, then she’s out on her ass. Back to Bolivia, or wherever the hell she’s from.”
Adrianna: “...but Andi, what if SHE wins? Does that mean you have to go?”
Andi: “First of all, ew. Who’s side are you on? And anyway, in the hiiiiighly unlikely chance she manages to beat me, nothing happens except she I guess wins a match and gets to stay. My contract is already signed. I’ve got my check, sweetie. She’s out here fighting for free. For PEANUTS, girl! Imagine?”
Adrianna: “Okay but like...Andi, if she loses then you’re putting her out of a job. Jobs are hard to find everywhere these days. Maybe you should just let her win?”
Andi: “BITCH!! You tried it. And what? Lose my debut match? Absolutely fucking not. See unlike Messy Lesley over here, I actually have a little bit of a reputation. Some of the people in NPW go back to the RSW days so like...that means they know me and expect a certain level of performance. I can’t just throw that away so homegirl can keep...excuse me...GET a job. Besides, if I did that then really i’d be doing her a disservice. She should want to win a match on her own merits. Builds character.”
Adrianna: “I...guess I see your point?”
Andi: “I thought you might!”
Just then, the sound of a baby crying emits from the laptop speakers.
Adrianna: “Ugh...looks like it’s feeding time.”
Andi:”Gross. Have fun with that...alright girl, i’ll catch you later. I have to figure out how i’m going to get this damn suitcase to the arena anyway.”
Adrianna: “Mmhm...okay well you do that. Talk to you soon.”
Andi: “Byyyyyyyyyyye!”
Adrianna: “Oh, and Andi?”
Andi: “What’s up?”
Adrianna: “You’re an idiot.”
Andi: “Love you too!” She says before throwing up a peace sign and then closing the laptop.
She then turns back to the overstuffed luggage with one hand on the back of her hip, the other with a finger pressed to her lips as she looks at the suitcase pensively.
Andi: “I wonder how much it’s gonna cost to ship this thing to the unemployment line.”
