WEEK FIVE ~ FOR YOU

FOR YOU

By

Kyle Gregory Boynton

Lights up on a "forest". A "log" is stage...
whatever.

ADAM enters carrying a bottle of wine.
He sits on the "log", sullenly.
He takes the cork out of the bottle, takes a swig.

NOAH enters.

NOAH
Why’d you run off?

ADAM
Why do you think?

NOAH
You have to make a decision!

ADAM
No, not this.

NOAH
You’re the president of the united states!

ADAM
Get out!

NOAH
No.

ADAM
Leave. Now!

NOAH
Pathetic.

NOAH exits.

ADAM rises. Anger flourishes. Throws bottle.

AMY enters.

ADAM
Not you too.

AMY
Why?

ADAM
I can’t handle something like this...

AMY
Yes, you can.

ADAM
Not after-

AMY
I believe.

ADAM
What is there to believe in anymore?

AMY
Me?

ADAM
You’re not real anymore.

AMY
You’re talking to me, aren’t you?

ADAM
Pressure..

AMY
Anxiety...

ADAM
How can I make this decision.

AMY
You have to.

ADAM
Why?

AMY
For me.

ADAM pulls out his cell phone, dials a number.

ADAM
For you.

ADAM presses a button.
