BECCA EXITS BY JEFFREY LO (DOWNLOAD PDF HERE)
MARK and REBECCA siting on chairs.
Except for Mark, Rebecca and the two chairs – the stage is empty.
MARK and REBECCA are facing each other.
Pause.
BECCA: I love you.
MARK: What does that mean?
Pause.
BECCA: It means that you have been a huge part of my life and I am a better person because of it.
Pause.
MARK: I miss you.
BECCA: What does that mean?
MARK: It means that when you are not here with me, I can’t stop thinking about how much I need you.
Pause.
BECCA: I’ve learned so much the past two months.
MARK: What does that mean?
Pause.
BECCA: It means that being separated from each other has been a new experience for us and it was an eye opening time.
Pause.
MARK: I want you to always be here.
BECCA: What does that mean?
MARK: It means I want you to prioritize our relationship ahead of your work.
Pause.
BECCA: I want more.
MARK: What does that mean?
Pause.
BECCA: It means we’ve been together for so long and maybe we’ve outgrown each other.
MARK: What does that mean?
BECCA: It means that sometimes people are right for each other at different times in their life.
MARK: What does that mean?
BECCA: It means that we are different people now.
Pause.
MARK: I won’t let you.
BECCA: What does that mean?
MARK: I won’t let you.
BECCA: What does that mean?
MARK: I. Will. Not. Let. You.
BECCA stands.
BECCA: Say it again.
MARK: I WON’T LET YOU!
BECCA exits.
END OF PLAY.
