Drift away (Callie left alone.)
(Callie shows the survivors a flashback scene.)
Callie: "Here in the school day, let's play a game. I'll show you how it's done. Here in the school day, stand very still." "This'll be so much fun!" And then he smiled, that's what I'm after. A smile in his eyes, and the sound of his laughter. Happy to listen, happy to play. Happily watching him drift away.
(Past Callie watches her lover leave her behind.)
Callie: Happily waiting all on my own, under the endless skies. Counting the seconds, standing alone, as thousands of days that go by. Happily wondering, night after night. 'Is this how it works? Am I doing it right?' Happy to listen, happy to stay, happily watching him drift away.
(She points to her lover.)
Callie: You keep on turning pages, for people who don't care, people who don't care about you. And still it takes you ages to see that no ones there, see that no ones there, see that no ones there.. Everyone's gone on without you..
(Past Callie waits in a disguise and a getaway car.)
Callie: Finally something, finally news, about how the story ends.. He went on with crime then, surviving on the run, with all of his brand new friends...
(Her past self gets out and tries to go after him, crying softly.)
Callie: Isn't that lovely? Isn't that cool? And isn't that cruel? And aren't I a fool to have happily listened? Happy to stay.. Happily watching him drift.. Drift.. Drift.... Away.
(She sits down, facing away from the survivors, but then turns her head around.)
