The Phone Call

Sean: Hi Nicki! How have you been?

Nicki: Fine, just fine. Missed me?

Sean: (laughs) Sure did. What have you been up to?

Nicki: Nothing much… so when did you arrive?

Sean: Just yesterday. However, I have to get back there today.

Nicki: Oh, is that so? So when are you comin’ back?

Sean: Maybe this Saturday… not so sure.

Nicki: Ok… (smiles to herself) The gang’s planning to have a get-together.

Sean: Really? Just tell me where and maybe I can come or something. (laughs). Oh yeah. Maybe the band’s pushing through with the event this May.

Nicki: Oh… but I think I can’t join you guys. I haven’t been contributing much.

Sean: Me too. I talked to Sam the other day and she said that maybe the old members would not join.

Nicki: Ah… okay… wait… you talked with whom? Samantha?

Sean: Uhhh… (uneasy)

Nicki: (laughs) Who was it? Samantha?

Sean: Uhhh… why are you laughing? (laughs too)

Nicki: Wait… wait… is there something going on that I don’t know? hmmm

Sean: Uhhh… yeah… you know?

Nicki: What Sean? I don’t know?

Sean: You know?

Nicki: You like her?

Sean: Uhm-hum… Oh man! (laughs) Just ask Mandy ‘bout it. She knows…(laughs)

Nicki: Oh… (laughs uncomfortably)… Gotta go now…

Sean: Ok… you, take care.

Nicki: Yeah… you too…

Sean: Bye.

Nicki: (hangs up) yeah…goodbye…(and tears start to roll down her cheeks)
