Setting: Home

[Door opens and closes SFX]

Oh hey babe, you're home early?

(Pause)

Didn't have much work left? Okay...

Ohh you brought take out? Thank you so much love, I wasn't feeling like cooking today anyway.

(Pause)

How was work?

(Pause)

That's great. I'm glad you had fun.

(Pause)

Oh me? I... I took the day off today. I just didn't feel like going to work. So I stayed home and did a couple of chores. You can see the windows are clean, the couch is clean, pillows have been fluffed, Leo's litter box has been refilled-

(Pause)

Yeah?

(Pause)

Am I okay? Yes I'm okay. Why would you ask me that?

(Pause)

Well, I am. So don't worry, okay?

(Pause)

Let's eat, dinner's getting cold.

(Pause)

Baby, I told you I'm fine. Can we just eat? I'm hungry.

(Pause)

Look, you've had a great day today. I don't want to ruin your mood with me whining about life again, so let's just drop it. I'll be fine.

(Pause)

Why do you always have to know about everything? Can't you just let me be? If I don't want to share something with you, stop pushing me around. I'll talk to you about it when I am ready. Until then, just try to distract me or do anything else except for bringing up this topic. I've been trying to act normal since the minute you walked through that door and it's working so let it be, okay?

(Pause)

It's okay. I know you're just worried about me. Let's eat? I really am hungry.

[You sit together on the dining table and start having dinner]

So what happened at work today?

(Pause)

That's great honey. I'm so proud of you.

(Pause)

Oh, you did? So like, it was just you and him/her?

(Pause)

That's where you brought the take out from? But I thought you said you hated him/her.

(Pause)

[Scoffs] You still do? Okay so let me get this straight, you hate him/her but you still go out for dinner with him/her? Doesn't make sense.

(Pause)

I'm not angry, I just don't get it.

(Pause)

No, when did I ever say I have a problem with you going out for dinner with your colleagues?

You know what, forget it. I'm probably just overreacting.

(Pause)

Yeah I'm fine. By the way, this tastes amazing. We should go there someday. I'm sure the ambience is cool and chill.

(Pause)

Thanks for the food baby. Why don't you go freshen up, and I'll get the dishes done and join you in the bed. Sounds good?

(Pause)

Alright [kisses softly]

[Time skip] [Washing dishes SFX]

Oh- (chuckles) you scared me. Why are you hugging me from behind like this?

(Pause)

Babe, stop nuzzling my neck, it tickles.

(Pause)

I'm trying to wash the dishes, baby. Stop it. (Giggles)

(Pause)

(Sighs) Bab-

[You cut them off and kiss them deeply]

[Both of you kiss for a few minutes but they suddenly stop with their eyes still closed. And you can feel something is really bothering them.]

[Whispers] Why are we together?

(Pause)

[Sighs heavily] Why are you dating me?

(Pause)

Just, answer me. Why are you with me?

(Pause)

Why do you love me? I'm a complete mess.

(Pause)

It is true, and you know it. I'm pathetic, I'm lazy, I'm difficult to understand, I'm everything that's holding us back from being in a healthy relationship. Every single time I try to do something, I end up destroying it and hurting people. My parents are fed up of me, my family thinks I'm a failure. They keep telling me to come back and join my dad's business because they've already made up their mind that I won't be able to do anything by myself.

(Pause)

No, don't shush me. Everything I'm saying is true so let's just face it.

(Pause)

I am. I am a failure, babe. Look at me. I've got dark circles under my eyes from staying up late and overthinking all night. I have no confidence left in me. All I do is wake up, go to my office, work like a machine, come back home and lay in bed. It feels like my life is just a routine that I need to trace it over and over again, until I die.

(Pause)

I didn't tell you because I don't want to ruin your life like I ruined my parents' life just because I can't get my shit together.

(Pause)

No, I don't want your help because if I go down, I'll take you down with me and that's the last thing I want.

(Pause)

When?! When is it going to be fine? I've heard that sentence so many times and yet it doesn't seem like it's ever gonna come true.

(Pause)

I'm tired babe. I'm tired of trying every single day to be happy for you and my parents. I'm sick of pretending that everything is fine. I'm sick of working non-stop to please my boss just to end up in front of his desk, listening to him telling me about everything that's wrong with me. It makes me feel worthless.

(Pause)

I don't know baby, I don't know what I want. I don't know what to do with myself. All I know is I want to make my parents proud. I want to make YOU proud.

(Pause)

How the hell are you proud of me? I haven't done anything to make you feel that way.

(Pause)

I mean... Yeah I have. I've tried a lot. I've given my hundred percent in everything I've tried doing. But it kills me when I find out all my efforts are just in vain and I've achieved absolutely nothing.

(Pause)

It is?

(Pause)

Yeah. I understand.

(Pause)

[Sighs] No, I just-

(Pause)

[Sighs happily] You're the first person who's ever told me that it's okay to feel this way. Everyone else just tells me to get out of my bed and stop acting like a bitch [Bitter laugh].

(Pause)

Just some of my friends I opened up to. That's why I didn't tell you how I felt. Because I didn't want to get hurt. I thought you would react just like they did.

(Pause)

Hmm, I'm glad too. I feel much better now that I've finally shared it with someone. You're such a good listener baby. Thank you so much for listening to me.

(Pause)

No please, let me. You've always been so kind to me and I kept avoiding you and continued being distant. God knows how much that must've hurt you. I'm so sorry love.

[Kisses]

Yes, much much better. I love you so much. [Pecks]

(Pause)

A drive? Isn't it too late for that?

(Pause)

[Chuckles] Okay sir/ma'am. Let me just grab our coats. I don't want you to get sick.

(Pause)

Oh you're driving? Are you sure?

(Pause)

Okay then just let me call mom and dad.

(Pause)

To tell them that this might be the last time I'm talking to them.

[Laughs] Okay sorry. I won't make fun of you anymore. But accept it, you're a terrible driver.

(Pause)

Alright let's see what you've got.

[Door opens SFX]

[Slightly faded voice] What are we doing for New year's? Don't tell me Netflix at home. We are not loners...

[Door shuts close SFX]
