Crystal was suicidal at the age of seven. Because of this, she signed a no suicide contract. One day, years later, Crystal was walking down the street one day. Suddenly, she saw a music store. Crystal went into the music store. There, she saw a pink electric guitar, a keyboard, and a drum set. Crystal liked all 3, but she knew her parents could only afford lessons for one instrument. She was having a hard time deciding and was very sad. The owner of the music store saw how sad Crystal was and went over to talk to her. He told Crystal that she could have one free lesson on each instrument and then Crystal could decide which one she liked best. It was a difficult decision, but Crystal chose the pink electric guitar. Pink was her favorite color and the guitar rocked! After a few lessons, Crystal got very good and joined the music store band. Crystal was very happy!
