Rachel's Pain

Rachel walks into her apartment drenched from the rain. She places her keys onto the table and takes a seat on the couch. She looks to her left to see a framed picture of her and Jessie on their wedding day. Water trickles down her face and she wipes her eyes. She then examines the ring on her finger.

Rachel:
Jessie is over and Jessie is gone
Jessie's decided it's time to move on
Jessie has new dreams he's building upon
And I'm still hurting

Jessie arrived at the end of the line
Jessie's convinced that the problems are mine
Jessie is probably feeling just fine
And I'm still hurting

What about lies, Jessie?
What about things
That you swore to be true
What about you, Jessie
What about you

(She rises from the couch and lifts the picture up. She sits it back down and turns it over as a tear falls from her eyes. She walks over to the window and watches as the rain falls.)

Jessie is sure something wonderful died
Jessie decides it's his right to decide
Jessie's got secrets he doesn't confide
And I'm still hurting

(She is now walking on the roof. She is looking over the edge at all the people walking the streets of New York. She brushes her hair back to wipe the rain from blinded her. She does a few spins then leans against the door in deep thought as she sings.)

Go and hide and run away
Run away, run and find something better
Go and ride the sun away
Run away like it's simple
Like it's right...

Give me a day, Jessie
Bring back the lies
Hang them back on the wall
Maybe I'd see
How you could be
So certain that we
Had no chance at all

(She returns to her apartment and once again takes a look at the picture. She slides the wedding ring off of her finger and sits it on the table next to the picture. Tears begin to fall down her face.)

Jessie is over and where can I turn?
Covered with scars I did nothing to earn
Maybe there's somewhere a lesson to learn
But that wouldn't change the fact
That wouldn't speed the time
Once the foundation's cracked
And I'm
Still Hurting

Jessie walks into the apartment. You can see on his face that he has been crying. Rachel turns around not wanting Jessie to see her so broken up. She wipes her face.

"What are you doing here Jessie?" Rachel said taking a seat.

"Rachel are we really going to end this way?" Jessie said moving closer to Rachel. "We've come too far and been through too much."

Rachel pushes Jessie away as she moves further away from him.

"You cheated on me Jessie," Rachel said with anger "The vowels we took meant nothing to you. I feel like we are in high school all over again. You weren't honest to me then and you're not honest with me now!"

"I'm not that person anymore Rach," Jessie said as his voice begun to break. "I love you!"

Rachel moves closer to Jessie. She gives him a kiss on the lips, and proceeds to walk out of the door. Jessie looks over his shoulder to see that Rachel was gone. He moves closer in the house and notices that Rachel's ring was sitting on the table. He picks it up and begins crying. He realized that he and Rachel might not make it out of their newest challenge.
