A fountain outside of a hotel.

Inside, a wedding can be heard.

On one side – CHUCK.

On the other side – HEATHER.

They sit in silence.

You can tell from their energy that they know each other but are unsure how to interact.

Beat.

More silence.

Beat.

A lot of silence.

Beat.
CHUCK: Did you know that I used to be your fiancé?

A brief silence.

CHUCK: Hah… Hah…

HEATHER: What?

CHUCK: I wasn’t sure how we should start this conversation so I thought maybe I –

HEATHER stands up and leaves.

CHUCK: Oh. Goodbye… Again. 

END OF PLAY.
