| Sabola: |
|
Uhhh, Rahj,
you know I have to go see Jasmine today?
Long pause
|
|
|
|
| Rahj: |
|
Yeah, I
know Sabola.
When?
|
|
|
|
| Sabola: |
|
In
about an hour. |
|
|
|
| Rahj: |
|
No, Sabola,
why so soon?
|
|
|
|
| Sabola: |
|
I have to
see her before Vicious gets to her, and you know her
wants her. I'm a male tiger and it's time for me to
marry, and so do other male tigers.
Giving her a sly look.
|
|
|
|
| Rahj: |
|
Sabola,
I don't like that look you just gave me, what's up our
sleeve? |
|
|
|
| Sabola: |
|
Nothing,
I'm just saying I'm not the only male tiger that needs
or wants to be married. |
|
|
|
| Rahj: |
|
I need you,
Sabola.
Pause
You know I do. She's going to take my place!
|
|
|
|
| Sabola: |
|
Rahj,
I have only one sister named Rahj, Jasmine is going to
be my wife, she could never take your place. And when
I say that I mean it. |
|
|
|
| Rahj: |
|
It's
still not going to be the same Sabola! I won't fully have
the brother I've always known. Jasmine will have the other
half of you. |
|
|
|
| Sabola: |
|
What
am I supposed to do the rest of my life if I don't marry
Jasmine? She's the one Rahj, I have to have her, but then
I have to have you with me. See, it's not like I'm going
somewhere far away, I'm still here for you. |
|
|
|
| Rahj: |
|
What
am I supposed to do all day long without you around? I
don't like hanging with Surina she's too conceited. |
|
|
|
| Sabola: |
|
I
will be around Rahj, that's what I'm trying to tell you,
just not all day long. |
|
|
|
| Rahj: |
|
See,
you just said it for yourself, "not all day long"!
|
|
|
|
| Sabola: |
|
laughing,
says:
Rahj, we're growing up we have to start our lives, you
have to focus on your future now. |
|
|
|
| Rahj: |
|
What
do you mean future? I don't know how to start a future.
|
|
|
|
| Sabola: |
|
Your
future is what you're destined to do, like marry. |
|
|
|
| Rahj: |
|
Laughing
really hard
Like who? |
|
|
|
| Sabola: |
|
I
don't know, but you do.
|
|
|
|
| Rahj: |
|
Come on
Sabola, stop it. Don't change the subject.
|
|
|
|
| Sabola: |
|
Okay, what
if I said I want you to get married soon, so you can
be happy too?
|
|
|
|
| Rahj: |
|
It sound
good, but there no tiger out here for me.
|
|
|
|
| Sabola: |
|
Rahj... |
|
|
|
| Rahj: |
|
What!
OK, maybe I do like Amaud but so what. |
|
|
|
| Sabola: |
|
What
if I said he wants to marry you? |
|
|
|
| Rahj: |
|
You
know I've never even tried to have a full conversation
with another male tiger. I wouldn't know how to act once
we were married. |
|
|
|
| Sabola: |
|
Yes
you will, you're naturally caring and lovable, you'll
make the perfect wife. |
|
|
|
| Rahj: |
|
It
sounds like you're making Amaud your escape. |
|
|
|
| Sabola: |
|
Sarcastically
No dummy, I just want you to be happy too. |
|
|
|
| Rahj: |
|
You make
me happy,
|
|
|
|
| Sabola: |
|
Cuts
her off
So does Amaud, you just won't let it happen. |
|
|
|
| Rahj: |
|
I
can't really say anything because Sabola, you're right.
Pause
I don't want to be alone.
Sabola says softly: |
|
|
|
| Sabola: |
|
When
I said Amaud wants to marry you, he does. |
|
|
|
| Rahj: |
|
How?
Why? What are you saying? |
|
|
|
| Sabola: |
|
Exactly
what I said? So what do you say? |
|
|
|
| Rahj: |
|
.....O...K,
no, that means I have to leave home. |
|
|
|
| Sabola: |
|
OK,
you know how you love our little cousins so much and can't
get enough of them, well you can have your own cubs now.
|
|
|
|
| Rahj: |
|
It's
tempting, and Amaud would make some cute cubs. |
|
|
|
| Sabola: |
|
So
what do you say sis? |
|
|
|
| Rahj: |
|
If
I do this will you still come around? |
|
|
|
| Sabola: |
|
OK,
how about this, we can move into caves right next to each
other? |
|
|
|
| Rahj: |
|
You
promise? |
|
|
|
| Sabola: |
|
I
promise! |
|
|
|
| Rahj: |
|
Sabola,
you know what you need to do. |
|
|
|
| Sabola: |
|
What? |
|
|
|
| Rahj: |
|
Go
get Jasmine. |
|
|
|
| Sabola: |
|
I
have some time, now I have to get you to Amaud! |
|
|
|
|
|
Alternate
Ending: |
|
|
|
| Sabola: |
|
I
have some time, let's just sit here for a while |
|
|
|
| Rahj: |
|
Alright
Sabola.
Amaud comes walking up the path, Sabola spots him first |
|
|
|
| Sabola: |
|
Look
Rahj. |
|
|
|
| Rahj: |
|
She
freezes. Whispering:
Sabola now what? |
|
|
|
| Amaud: |
|
Hi
Rahj. |
|
|
|
| Rahj: |
|
Hey.
|
|
|
|
| Sabola: |
|
I
told her everything. |
|
|
|
| Amaud: |
|
So,
Rahj, will you marry me? |
|
|
|
| Rahj: |
|
Yes.
|
|
|
|
|
|
The
End. |
