Week 4...

Character 1.
School Boy in love with class mate

I hope Onique doesn’t know. I can’t believe I lost the note I wrote her. I think I dropped it on the floor in Assembly… I can’t believe I wrote it in the first place. I’m so angry. I mean, of course I will tell her sometime, but not today. Maybe when we’re both older and ready to get married, she’ll look so beautiful in the morning, she did look nice this morning... What am I saying? I need to find the note; I need to tell everyone it was a joke. I can only pray that the note is not in pieces, in her pocket. There’s no way I’m going to Sherry’s party now. No way.

Character 2.
Onique The school Girl

Mum would never let me go out with him even if she wasn’t getting a divorce. Nothing is the same any more, why can’t it just be like it was before? I don’t think men will ever be allowed in our house again. Everyone keeps telling me he likes me, he even wrote it in a note, I heard… but it could well be a joke. He’s just going to make fun of me, like all boys do. I’ll just tell my friends there is not a chance on earth that I’ll even consider him. Then maybe I might see him at Sherry’s party, and then he’ll probably talk to me… But I need to find sometime without Tatiana and Emma…
Breath…… I don’t even like boys. Yeah. They always end up taking what’s yours… That is what mum says, anyway.

Character 3.
Dad who pretends to believe in ‘Happy goes lucky’ opportunities

Beep Beep (alarm) Time to wake up! I hate my alarm and I’m so tired! I could definitely do with another hour in bed. Early-wakers get all the opportunities, I know that. I’ll do this for a couple more months, show them how much of a hard working, enthusiastic morning person I am, and soon I’ll be sitting in the big desk with the big chairs of the London office with all the rest of the lazy lucky bastards. Huh. I should jump in the shower and wear a tie today. Maybe I’ll talk to my mate Jeffrey about some business plans. I think he did some business degree of some sort. Jeffrey is a clever bloke. I’m going to take the girls for a Holiday this year, they’ll see. My little girl, how fast is she growing! And the wife, not bad, not bad at all. I should get there 10 minutes early; those corporate people will like that.

Character 4.
A nanny who doesn’t like children

Right, I am not baby sitting in this house again, ever, ever. How can this people have three children! One, I guess one is OK. Two is pushing it but bloody three! I just hope they left me some wine and crackers. (Little girl runs downstairs) ‘What’s that sweetheart? Are you crying?’ … ‘Of course there are no ghosts here tonight, they all jumped into Mummy and Daddy’s suitcase’… ‘No, oh don’t cry louder! Mummy and Daddy will be OK’ did I scare the kid even more? ‘Come on! go to bed, Casablanca is about to begin, and it is a classic! You wouldn’t understand that though would you?’ Kids….
