HOUSE/LIVING ROOM - CONTINOUS
He locks door behind him and
puts on living room lights. He switches on air conditioner and makes his way
into master bedroom.
He begins to take off his
clothing and accessories. He wears towel and enters bathroom. He dries himself after
showering, slips into boxer shorts and T-shirt.
Shortly Amara is seen using
a key from her purse to open the padlock to Bruce 's
burglar-proof door. She enters with a plastic bag and slides the aluminium
glass behind her.
AMARA
There is no
response. She starts setting food flask, cutleries and dinner wares from the
plastic bag in her hand on the dining table.
Shortly Bruce enters into the living room. He is startled to
see Amara.
AMARA
Hi?
How many times have I told you to always call
before coming over?
AMARA
Since I have your keys, any need?
Have my keys or not you should still call.
AMARA
I thought you’d be hungry so I brought you some
food. Homemade. Don’t tell me you already ate from that your Meshai again?
Amara, I
wasn’t expecting you.
AMARA
Expecting
someone else?
What if wasn't home?
AMARA
You’re always home after work, Bruce . Where’d you go? Come and sit.
AMARA(CONT'D)
I brought you Fufu with some vegetable
soup made with stock fish, dried fish and snail. All for you.
She serves
meal on dinner wares.
It’s almost nine P.M, Amara. How do
you want your Fufu to digest?
AMARA
Ok, eat only the soup. Vegetables
are good for you. It’d even aid digesting whatever you ate at the Meshai's.
How were you able to cook this meal
so fast? You left the office just some few minutes before me?
AMARA
I usually cook my meals at once in
bulk – mostly weekends – and freeze them. What I did was bring this one out of
the freezer, warmed it up and voilà...!
(To Amara)
...what if
there’s no electricity?
AMARA
I have a generator.
AMARA(CONT'D)
Who is
it?
No one.
