Hi. Hellooooo

Hello.

Don’t you want to go in?

Where?

There

In there.

Yeah

In the dark.

Well it’s a dark ride. It’d be stupid if all the lights were on.

What are you looking at?

Huh? Nothing. Watcha doing? You’re reading?

Four out of five doctors agree.

Don’t you want to go in?

No.

It’s fun…

Uh huh.

It is. Everyone says so.

So go.

I will, I will, I am. I’m totally going in.

Bon voyage.

Huh?

Have a good trip.

So, what was that? French?

Japanese.

Huh?

Yes, French.

You speak French.

No. Two words do not constitute a whole language.

Huh?

Exactly.

You’re missing out on all the fun.

What are you looking at?

Huh? Nothing. Why won’t you go in?

Why are you talking talking to me?

You should go. Inside. Everyone’s in there.

Everyone?

Yeah.

In there.

Yeah.

Exactly.

Huh?

Never mind.

You’re weird.

So why are you talking to me?

Huh?

People don’t talk to me. So why are you?

Ah, everyone’s in there.

So you said.

You have to go in.

No. I don’t.

If you don’t go in, everyone will know.

What?

That you’re weird.

What’s so great in there?

Well, it’s a dark ride.

And…

It’s dark.

So…

They’ll know you didn’t. They’ll say you’re afraid. They’ll say you’re not like them.

So?

So? Didn’t you hear me? They won’t like you.

They don’t like me. And they say those things all the time, so really it’s nothing new.

You have to go in.

You’re not good at this you know.

What?

MONOLOGUE

I’m not, I wasn’t… I wouldn’t make you eat… That’s stupid.

Uh huh.

It’s just a dark ride.

Uh huh.

I’d die if someone didn’t like me.

Poor you.

I’d do anything… Don’t you want to be liked?

I am liked. Just not here.

Where else is there?

It’s a big world.

Um, everybody’s, um, in there…

So you should go.

It’s your own fault.

Bon voyage. Have a nice life. See y’all later.
