Nuthings!!

An urban setting, the window highlights the rising and dipping outlines of the yellow high rises. The daylight succumbing to the greyish air all around. A small square room with dirty curtains. Some music on the loop. The sound of dull whistling accompaning it. Them sitting side by side against the wall- One absent mindedly typing at the keyboard, the Other looking up at the ceiling. Between the two of them a paper carrying weed precariously kept under folds. A slow droning and thump of a honey bee creeps up now and again

-Baby can you clean up??

-Umm.

Five Minutes later...

- Baby please clean up some stuff..

-Just a minute..

Two Minutes Later...

-Baby...Baby

-Yes...

Takes up the piece of paper and starts cleaning...

A Minute Later

-Baby give me another sheet. This paper is too slippery.

-Huh?

-Baby another paper, this is too slippery.

-Yes.

Another Minute Later

Sits back against the wall...breathing hard...

Looks at the Other...Absent mindedly speaks

-Baby what's the matter?

-(Keeps breathing harder)

-(Keeps breathing harder. Clutches the long locks)

Gets up

-Baby get up..get up I say..here..stop it

-(starts shivering with emotion)

-Baby, stop it.

-Baby what happened? What's the matter?

Pulls the Other up. Struggles with the weight..Finally rests the other against the wall.

-I need to break something..Now..

-Yes, I get it baby..Now, calm down..Please

Gets the Other to sit down..

-Forget it...
