Chapter 4


Act Two

------------------------

[Two people on stage]

Set:

A cafe patio near a tattoo shop; right next door. White table and red umbrella. White chairs.

Lights:

Left, near the lip. Down, center. Right, down. Left, down.

Clothes:

John in a light green shirt with blue blue pants. Blue vest and brown boots.

Scene:

Terezi sits on the right chair at the beginning of the scene. John walks in and sits with her. Sitting a cross on the left.

------------------------------

"Protype.", said John.

"Egbert.", said Terezi.

They stares at each other until they turns to watch cars pass them by. Faint radio music in the background.

"So...", said Terezi.

John faces her. Being blind, Terezi continues to face the street.

"How have you been?", said Terezi.

John gently moves her head towards him.

"I'm fine, a little confused, but fine."

"Things would be less confusing if you'd stay with me.", she said.

As she says this, she places her hand on the hand on her face. His hand. She closes her eyes under her red sunglasses.

"You know I won't take you back. I....don't have the same feelings for you anymore.", said John.

With closed eyes, she sighed. John made a serine and sad expression. Small tears drip down her cheek quietly.

"What we had is gone, at least for me.", he said once more.

She chokes back a sob and sighed.

"W-well....I, uh, what time is it?", she said.

"5: 30."

John takes back his hand and she gets up. He stands with her and walks infront of her. They embrace each other and Terezi places her hands on his cheeks. He stare at her. She rubs her thumb a cross his cheek and he keeps his arms a round her waist.

"You still have soft, flawless skin as always.", she whispers.

"And you still have a long way to go."

".....I don't want to forget you."

She kissed him on the lips gently. The kissed didn't last as long as she had hoped.

"I love you.", she said.

".....", he said nothing.

John hugs her one more time before leaving and he doesn't look back. She stands there with her head down.

Once again the lights fade and the curtain draws shut.
