She had a choice to make, music school or the strip club. Well, both needed some cash to get started... music school wasn't cheap and well, she would need some boobjob to make stripping work for her.
She was the nutty type... no doubt she really considered stripping. But she could do anything to play her clarinet. She treasured it above any other possession.
As most people do, she made the bad call and chose to work at the club, but always tried to squeeze in time to practice with her clarinet. For some reason, the other girls used it to tease her. She really didn't mind... not until some ignorant girl says "what's the deal with the flute?"
Sophia flipped, it's not a flute! It's a clarinet! Went ballistic on the girl and ended up in jail... Sophia is still in jail...
