-Wait let me check.

-It's okay Dad; since I'd be faster anyway.

~(Opening the door)

-...Jerry!?

-(Looks at her)

-Jerry? Hey??

-Hi.

-Don't 'Hi' me! What do you think you are doing here?

-...

-Jerry?

-I don't know...I feel happy.

-Well, good for you. A call would be easier for us from now on.

~(Attempts to close the door)

-Wait Layla!

-Layla?? Who's at the door? Dad's asking.

-Courier service Mom. I am just checking on the stuffs.

-What did you order now?

-Some papers I needed.

-Oh, alright.

-God...hey! Don't. Don't touch me!

-..Sorry.

-...I'm done. You should've figured it by now. We've talked about this already Jerry.

-What do you mean?

-I mean I am done with the job. Done with the your bar. Done with YOU! I'm no longer the manager of..

-But Layla..

-I'm sorry but we should act formal.

-... I see. You know..I felt happy. Seeing your face again. Well it wasn't that childish and energy filled one which I am used to but it was enough.

-...

-So..then..if I ever have to how should I address you from now?

-...You won't have to. We'll be moving out soon. Dad's new job.

-...I see.

-...

-Sorry...it's just that I didn't know.

-...I tried to let you know..

-So..you're going away...that's good. I'm glad you're finally getting out of this hellwhole.

-I'm getting married soon after we settle in...thought I should tell you.

-...

-...

-...Congratulations from both of us(smiling) Layla; Ms. Ray.

-...

-At least...I'll be at peace knowing that you found the happiness you deserve.

-'Happiness' huh? You are a COWARD!!

-...Funny, I kinda knew it.

-Why?? I was this cheap to you after all(tears came out)?? Those promises, the playful moments, your need for me..my importance to JANE...all of these were just some hoaxes.

-No...

-Or..have you been having too much fun with your precious Selina every night?

-..If only you could climb down from the top of this huge ego of yours, you could understand 'cheap' and 'precious'.

-Yeah it's my fault. Everything's have always been.

-I'll be there for whatever you wish to do with your life...I made this promise to Jane's mother.

-..I know.

-That, didn't quite work out. I couldn't be with her when she needed me.
