‘Well, I’m stuffed. . .
once again, you’ve managed
to wow me with your cooking’
KRISTYN: I’m glad you liked
it
HITHE: Yeah, you should sit
down and relax
[ drinks his last drop of
wine]
KRISTYN: I wish, I could
but I just have to stay
busy. . .it’s the only way
I'll stay sane
HITHE: Yeah, I know
what you mean
KRISTYN: I’m sorry about
the other night [ sits down ]
HITHE: It’s alright I
understand
KRISTYN: No, I don’t
think you do
HITHE: What is it?
[ Looks at her. ]
KRISTYN: I’m scared, Hithe!
If my husband finds out
you come around he’ll
try and take my kids away
and I already lost my son. . .
I can’t stand to
lose my daughters too
HITHE: He can’t do that!
KRISTYN: I don’t know. . . But I
did push him down that
one night
HITHE: Don’t worry, that
wasn’t your fault. . .
KRISTYN: I know, but I have a
feeling he’ll try and use
it against me
HITHE: Do you have anything
uh. . .else to drink?
KRISTYN: I’m not sure. . .
I’ll check though
[ Kyle pulls up outside of Amber’s
+ sees her standing on her
balcony ]
KYLE: Well, if it isn’t
my Juliet
AMBER: Hey
KYLE: You look tired. . .
Still recovering over last night?
AMBER: Yeah, something like
that!
KYLE: Me too and I’ve been
doing some thinking. . .
AMBER: About what?
KYLE: About us I want
things to be how they
were before I left
I wanna be together again
AMBER: Kyle, I don’t know
if I’m ready for that
yet. . .
KYLE: I know you’re scared
about what happened the
last time
But I love you. . . and I’ve changed
AMBER: I know you have,
it’s just. . . I need some time
to think
KYLE: Oh. . .I see
Well, I’ll give you time
then
[ starts walking away. . . ]
AMBER: Kyle!
[ He gets in his car + drives
off. . . ]
[ Hithe’s laying on the couch
watching TV. . . ]
HITHE: Need any help
in there?
KRISTYN: No, I’m fine
HITHE: OK
[ Pouring another shot, Hithe
looks up + sees Kristyn’s little
girl. . . ]
[ looks up ] HITHE: Hi
‘Who are you?’
HITHE: I’m Hithe, what’s
your name?
[ walks up ] KRISTYN: Stop
bothering him. . .
Why don’t you go back
and play in your room?
[ Her daughter leaves + she
sits by Hithe. . . ]
[ On Amber’s porch, she’s outside
+ calls Ski. . . ]
SKI: Hey stranger
AMBER: Hey. . .sorry
I haven’t been around
much lately
SKI: It’s alright. . .
AMBER: I just have a lot
on my mind right now
SKI: Oh yeah? What’s up?
AMBER: Well, I had a date
with Kyle last nite. . . and then
Jeszyca showed up
SKI: Wow, what happened?
AMBER: Let’s just say
she didn’t leave
SKI: You didn’t!
AMBER: We did
SKI: I don’t know what
to say
AMBER: I don’t know
what to do
SKI: What do you mean?
AMBER: All of this has confused
my feelings for both.
[ Back at Kristyn’s. . . ]
KRISTYN: Sorry about that. . .
HITHE: You didn’t have to send
her away
We we’re just talking
KRISTYN: I know. . . I’m just
worried about her Dad
HITHE: Well, anyways I’m glad
you finally sat down
KRISTYN: Yeah, I wore myself out. . .
HITHE: You know, whatever you
need. . .I’m here
[ He looks up at her. ]
You don’t have to go
through this alone
KRISTYN: I know
[ Kristyn suddenly notices Hithe’s
stare + he moves closer to her. . .]
KRISTYN: Hithe
[ looks up ] HITHE: Yeah?
[ Hithe quickly kisses her
+ steps back, waiting for her
to kiss him…she hesitates ]
KRISTYN: Maybe I should take
you home
HITHE: What’s wrong?
KRISTYN: It’s just that, that’s
how this all started. . .
[ Kristyn goes upstairs to get
her kids while Hithe waits. . . ]
[ They drive up to Hithe’s apartment
+ he gets out seeing someone
standing in the driveway. . . ]
‘Hey. . . ‘
[ comes up ] HITHE: Mark. . .
What are you doing here?
MARK: Just seeing how
you were doing. . . I uh,
talked to Ace today
HITHE: Yeah, and?
MARK: Well, he told me
about the other day. . .
and listen Hithe, I know were
not best friends + I’m truly sorry
about your son, but drinking
that much isn’t going
to make things better
HITHE: What? This isn’t
intervention, Mark!
MARK: No, but it might be
soon if you don’t stop. . .
Trust me, I know!
HITHE: Well, thanks for your
concern, but I’m fine
[ Hithe walks off, leaving
Mark standing outside ]
[ At TA it’s night shift +
Jeszyca’s standing by self check
when someone walks toward
her. . . ]
[ looks up ] JESZYCA: Hey!
What are you doing here?
[ Amber doesn’t say anything
she just walks up + starts
kissing her. . . ]
[ Jeszyca looks surprised ]
JESZYCA: Wait, does this mean
what I think it means?
