A little vignette to entertain you. Enjoy!!
Scene One Ext. Park
Amber sits on a bench in the park in front of a lake. She is transfixed by the ducks, looks sad. She fidgets with her scarf. Liam is seen walking around the park like he’s searching for someone. He sees Amber and goes to her. Amber turns to see Liam and sighs
Liam
I knew I’d find you here.
Amber doesn’t say anything. She doesn’t even look at him
Liam
You have to let me explain
Liam sits down next to her
Amber
Can it wait?
Liam

Amber

Pause
Amber

Liam tries to hold her hand.
Liam
I stuffed up. I thought after what happened that we were over and I got a little drunk. But it’s you I love.
Amber
I don’t know if I can trust you. I feel different now.
Liam
Look at me Amber…please
Silence
Liam
I’m sorry, I’m so sorry.
Amber
(looks at him) So am I
