Scene II: Ashley
A nineteen- year-old girl awakens and stretches. Screen cuts to her downstairs making coffee, and then cuts to her sitting down on the couch and turning on the TV. A news program is on, currently the weather.
Newscaster: Well, Jim, as you can see by the map, a cold front is moving in, so we can expect lots of showers and thunderstorms over the next week or so.
Girl (sarcastically): Great…(sets down coffee mug as there’s a thud at the door)
The girl stands up and answers the door. The newspaper has arrived. The girl walks back into her house, scanning the front page. Bored with it already, she throws it away. She resumes her spot on the couch. 15 seconds after she sits down, the phone rings.
Girl: Fuck!
She rises and walks off camera to go and answer the phone. Camera cuts to her picking up the phone.
Girl: Hello?
Girl on phone: Hey Ashley! What’s up?
Ashley: (sits back down on the couch) Hey Leah. Nothing much. Bored as fuck here. I haven’t heard from you for a while, what’s been up?
Leah: Eh, you know same old cock and bull here. Busy with…(sly voice) certain affairs (giggles)
Ashley: (giggles as well) I didn’t know Aaron was classified on “certain affairs” now. Or is that your code word? (laughs a little)
Leah: (breathes a laugh) Hardly. But I called to ask you if you wanted to come and hang out at the bar today with us. You know, girls night out!
Ashley: I don’t drink. It’s a bad omen for me. Remember?
Leah: Aw, come on girl! Loosen up, and live a little! You can do it!
Ashley: No, I won’t drink. It’s what killed my sister, so I’m going to the bookstore, same as always.
Leah: You’re at that bookstore every damn day. You buy a new book all the time. Haven’t you read every book ever made yet? (laughs)
Ashley: Not every day! And I have not read all the books yet. I don’t think it’s possible to read every book ever made.
Leah: All right, well, I have to go, Aaron’s awake now, and I think he’s hungry for something.
Ashley: Eww!!!!!!!
Leah: (laughs) Not like that you perv!!
Ashley: Sure, okay. Well, Later.
Leah: Later.
Ashley now hangs up the phone, placing it on the couch next to her. She sighs heavily, and then exits the room, heading toward the bathroom. Screen fades to black, and then fades back as Ashley is styling her hair. She is wearing a lot of black eyeliner, short black shorts, and a white tank top. She walks into her bedroom and pulls off her shorts, and into a pair of dark blue denim jeans, and a black t-shirt that adorned the band name Pink Floyd. She pulled on her black high-top Converses. She then grabbed her car keys and headed out the door.
