AMEET

SARA

(butters the toast and lathers pancakes with honey and marmalade)

Ameet: visibly relaxed.

...

(Through mouthfuls of food:)
How come Siti hasn't called me in? She usually buzzes non-stop when we take leave.

                                                                        AMEET 

Ahah I told you, remember? I told her that you got hurt and had to rest for a while, she totally understands.

SARA 

No, Ameet. I asked How come Siti hasn't called me?

                                                                          AMEET

SARA

AMeathead ah you. Didn't you hear what i said? (proceeds to bite toast)

                                                                            AMEET

                                                                            AMEET 

Yes, Siti, i mean, the company, (stutters lamely and in internal panic)

SARA 

Eh? (looks at her suspiciously clean fingers)
Ameet.

                                                                            AMEET

SARA 

Look. (shows her fingers to him)
There's something wrong with the marmalade.

                                                                            AMEET 

Ah. Darling?

SARA

                                                                            AMEET

(Ameet hopelessly stares at her, eyes brimming with tears) It's really you, he whispers

SARA 

OH. SONOFA (Sara flings away the jar of honey : it shatters) WHAT'S HAPPENING

                                                                            AMEET 

Sara, I love you-

SARA

                                                                       Sara freezes :


                                                                          

(deep, shaky breath after a burst of wobbly laughter):
Siti, collect patching data, Save log detail as Ressurection Program 5.6.8, Sara success.

Lightbulb pops.

(Sara unfreezes, looks confused, )

SARA 
Yes dear. But I love you like you do.

                                                                            AMEET

Success.

SARA 

Yes dear. But I love you like you do.

                                                                            AMEET 

Sara.
