HANSOL in her office’s parking lot.

She is sitting on the hood of her car eating a sandwich.

It is her lunch break.

She is wearing a pair of earphones.

She is listening to a podcast.

As she takes a bite of her sandwich she notices a tulip.

The tulip is growing from the concrete in the middle of the parking lot.

She chews her bite.

She pauses her podcast.

She slides off her car.

She walks closer to the Tulip.

HANSOL: … Huh.

Beat.

HANSOL watches the Tulip in the wind.

Silence.

HANSOL: … I’ve never noticed you before…

Beat.

HANSOL marvels at the tulip.

HANSOL smiles.

Silence.

Lights fade.

END OF PLAY.
