Au Revoir

We've been asked in ELA class to do our own drama. It's actually a project. Anyway, I just want to share my drama with all of you. I don't know if you'll like it but I'll post it here anyway. For comments please tag on my tag board!

AU REVOIR

ACT 1 SCENE 1
(enter Miguel and Samuel)

MIGUEL: Why? Why now? If only I had been there, this wouldn't have happened. She was asking for just an hour; an hour which if I have given to her might have changed this whole situation. This is my fault. If only I could turn back the time, I would be with her. From now on, I know things will never be the same.

SAMUEL: Miguel, stop blaming yourself! This isn't your fault. This is no one's fault. Maybe…maybe it's just what's supposed to happen.

MIGUEL: No! You don't understand! You do not know how it feels to lose someone like her!

SAMUEL: Miguel, don't act like you're the only one affected! I too, am affected. We are all affected by this loss! Don't tell me I do not know how you feel right now. I am as devastated as you are with Anna's death! And you know what, maybe you're right. Maybe it is your fault why she's no longer alive. No, I'm sure it is your fault. She asked for an hour of your time and you didn't give it! You are such an idiot Miguel!
[Samuel exits]

ACT 1 SCENE 2
(Maria enters)

MARIA: Don't mind Samuel. Try to understand him. Right now, he still cannot accept what happened to Anna.

MIGUEL: I know that Maria. I too, cannot accept that she is gone.

MARIA: Anna has been such a good sister and a best friend to me. Now, I do not know what to do without her. She is already gone and she will never return. I will truly miss her.

MIGUEL: Maria, I'm sorry. This is my fault. If only –

MARIA: Stop that nonsense Miguel. Everyone knows you're the last person who would want Anna to die. We all know you love her so.

MIGUEL: And so does Samuel.

MARIA: Yes, so does he.

MIGUEL: Do you happen to know whom she loves?

MARIA: Yes Miguel, I do. Too bad she left without having been able to tell him how she felt.

MIGUEL: Is it me or is it Samuel? Is it one of us or does she love another?

MARIA: I promised my sister never to tell anyone.

MIGUEL: But—

MARIA: Miguel, I want you to tell me how you became friends; how you, Samuel and my sister Anna became a trio. I want you to tell me from the moment you first met until the moment you last talked to her awhile ago. Then, I shall know…

MIGUEL: Know what?

MARIA: Nothing. But sooner or later you would know. But first, please do tell me your story. My sister never told me about how you three met and became friends.

MIGUEL: Really? I wonder why. Do you think she would mind if I tell you?

MARIA: No, I don't think so. I know that she would also tell me one day.

MIGUEL: Okay then. This all started when we were still kids…
[Miguel and Maria slowly exits]


Okay, that's it for now. I'll just post the rest some other time.
