Act 1, Scene 1 - Steps

Girl walks down the steps and sees a man sitting down. She casually sits right next to him.

Girl: Penny for your thoughts?
Boy: My thoughts are worth more than that.
Girl: Fair enough. Ok, I'll give you a million dollars for your thoughts. I don't think you'd take it though.
Boy: What makes you say that?
Girl: You seem smart... And my proposition seems foolish if not outright absurd.
Boy: Do you have a name?
Girl: What makes you think I'll give you the right one?
Boy: You seem like a good person. I have no reason to doubt you.
Girl: You're very trusting.
Boy: And you're a cynic.
Girl: You don't even know my name and you're judging me.
Boy: I may be judgmental, but I'm also right.
Girl: What's your name?
Boy: I asked you first.
Girl: Very well then... I'll just go ahead and call you Pablo. ...And you're smiling. Did I guess right?
Boy: No, but I'm amused.
Girl: I'm glad.
Boy: What are you doing in this part of the steps?
Girl: I was going down, but then I saw you. What are you doing in this part of the steps?
Boy: I was going up, but I got tired and I stopped.
Girl: Is that a metaphor?
*silence*
Girl: Silence speaks louder than words.
Boy: Do you listen?
Girl: Of course.
Boy: What does it say?
Girl: A million things that only the soul can comprehend, but will never be able to explain.
Boy: Bullshit.
Girl: *Laughs* You're right.

  1. oo nga pablo..... paduguan na naman ito..... tuwalya plsss


    ngunit sa palagay ko ay nararapat lang na huminto tayo paminsan minsan ng sa gayon ay makita natin kung saan tayo patungo o maaaring makapagpahinga sa nakakapagod na paglalakbay...

    na kung tawagin ay buhay..

  2. at maaring sa ating paglaklakbay ay may makaksalamuha tayong mga bagong tao... na maaring maging kaapay natin sa pagalakbay o maaaring magtulak sa atin para maligaw......

    may saysay ba ang aking sinasabi.... kung wala maaring pindutin ang sumusunod na bilang sa inyong mga telepono......1800-may-luko
