SCENE 1:
Late Afternoon at TA.
[ Amber, Kristyn, & Monica
are talking by checkout when
Syria walks toward them. ]
SYRIA: Good. You’re here now.
I’ve been meaning to give you
directions to my place.
[ She hands a paper to Amber
while the other two girls
talk near them. Amber looks
around. ]
AMBER: Oh you meant me.
SYRIA: Of course. I invited the
girls over to celebrate Monica’s
engagement.
AMBER: The girls? Well, then
I’ll be there. What time?
SYRIA: Just come when you
get off tonight. If that’s
okay.
Later Amber.
[ Syria leaves & Amber heads
upstairs to Mark’s office. ]
AMBER: Hey Mark, how was
your casino weekend?
[ Mark stares at her. Thinking hard
before he answers. ]
SCENE 2:
Night before at TA.
[ Airynn & Stuu are taking a
break. ]
AIRYNN: Get a load of these.
STUU: Wow, Catalus tickets.
Must have cost you a
fortune.
[ Airynn takes them back. ]
AIRYNN: Nope, I won them
online.
STUU: Nice, so who you taking
with you?
AIRYNN: Some girl, of course.
STUU: Yeah, okay. Too bad
most of them hate you.
[ Stuu starts to chuckle. ]
AIRYNN: Go ahead. Laugh
It up. I know I don’t have
the best track record.
But I’ll have a date by
tomorrow night.
Guarantee it.
[ Airynn smirks, as Stuu
shakes his head at him. ]
SCENE 3:
Almost 24 hours later. . .
[ Amber, Kristyn, Monica, &
Syria are talking over glasses
of wine. ]
MONICA: So how are you
adjusting to Dyminic being
gone?
[ Amber pretends like she’s
not paying attention. ]
SYRIA: Honestly, his work
took him away on a regular
basis. It’s not much different.
KRISTYN: Really, so what do
you think will happen?
SYRIA: I don’t know. For now,
we’re separated. Giving each
other space.
His assignment will be done
in the summer though.
MONICA: And in the mean
time?
SYRIA: If you’re asking if we’re
dating. Then yes, I have been
on one date.
KRISTYN: Excuse me?
SYRIA: It was just a movie. Trust me,
I have every intention of working
things out with my husband.
[ Kristyn & Amber look surprised
while Monica takes a drink. ]
SCENE 4:
Meanwhile across town. . . . .
[ Airynn is walking down the
street when he notices a girl
leaning up against the wall
of a bridge. ]
AIRYNN: Hey, what are you
doing out here alone?
[ The girl looks around but
doesn’t say anything. ]
STRANGER: Nothing. Who
are you?
[ She smiles at Airynn awkwardly
as he moves closer to her. The
girl backs away. ]
AIRYNN: Relax. I’m just a
concerned citizen.
Anyway, I live right up the
road.
STRANGER: Yeah, what are
you suggesting?
AIRYNN: I don’t know. A warm
couch, me, get out of this bad
weather. Maybe.
SCENE 5:
Back at Syria’s. . . . .
[ Everyone is laughing, playing a
game when Syria gets a phone
call & excuses herself. ]
SYRIA: Hey you.
CALLER: Good evening. Is everyone
enjoying themselves?
SYRIA: We’re cool and the
knives are still in the
drawer.
CALLER: Great, I knew you
guys could get along. Finally.
Tell them I said hi.
[ Syria peaks around the
corner and then back
inside her kitchen. ]
SYRIA: You’re joking, right.
CALLER: What do you mean?
Wait, you didn’t tell them.
Did you?
SYRIA: No. And you are not
going to either if you want
to keep hanging out.
I don’t need this getting
around.
Well, I have to go I’m
being rude. Goodnight Hahn.
SCENE 6:
[ Airynn and this new girl
are walking down the street
when suddenly they hear
sirens behind them. ]
“Stop it right there, you two!”
AIRYNN: Evening officer. What’s
going on?
[ The officer walks up. Shining a
light on Airynn & then the girl. ]
OFFICER: You tell me. Do you
know this girl?
[ Airynn looks at her as the
color drains from her face. ]
AIRYNN: I would think so. She’s
my girlfriend.
OFFICER: Alright then. Must be
the wrong person.
[ The officer gets in his vehicle
& drives off. ]
AIRYNN: Gee, what was that
about?
[ Airynn turns around but
the girls starts to take off
running. ]
“Wait, hold up!”
[ Airynn looks on the ground
ahead of him seeing the
small bag the girl dropped
on the ground. Opening it
slightly, he sees that it's
full of cash. ]
full of cash. ]
