1.5: Halloween


(Dre reached out and touched her cheek.)

(For a second, she appreciated the warmth. It felt good to remember that there was something sweet and tender in their relationship. It wasn’t all hurt and pain. But she couldn’t let that make her forget what broke them up in the first place.)
(She removed the hand from her cheek)
Sophia: This is about more than Carmen, Dre. We don’t work!!
Dre: So you’d rather shack up with that lady over there?
Sophia: We’re not shacked up!
Dre: That’s not what I hear. I hear you’re all about playing house these days.
Sophia: She’s just a friend. So leave her out of this conversation.
Dre: We were just friends once.
Sophia: No, we weren’t. Not really. And what we were, it’s not enough anymore. I’m not settling for anything less than what I deserve. And I deserve to be trusted and with someone I can trust. And that’s not you. It’s just not.
