Scene 10

Interior. Angela's Kitchen Shawn and Angela sit at kitchen table talking

Angela: So Shawn what have you been up to since I saw you last?

Shawn: where do I begin? I got a great job as a photographer and writer for the "Hit the Road" website.

Angela: That's awesome Shawn I'm so proud of you.

Shawn: Thanks. The job requires a lot of traveling so I've been almost everywhere in the world.

Angela: I always wanted to travel, but I never really got a chance to do that raising Marie.

Shawn: so what all have you been up to?

Angela: I own my own coffee shop in the heart of down town London, and we have slam poetry readings every Friday night.

Shawn: That sounds really cool.

Angela: Yeah I could imagine us as teenagers going on dates there.

(Angela starts tearing up.)

Shawn: What's wrong?

Angela: I just never forgot even after all these years.

Shawn: I didn't either but, we both have moved on.

Angela: I know.

(Angela leans across the table to kiss Shawn, and Marie walks in.)

Marie: Mom what are you doing? Were you about to kiss him? Are you cheating on dad? Who is he?

Angela: No I… I just thought I saw something on his face I needed to clean off.

Marie: You know you're an awful lire.

Shawn: Maybe I should go obviously you still have feelings for me, and (pause) I don't have feelings for you at least not anymore.

Angela: Yeah it was stupid of me. I mean I am happily married.

Shawn: Yeah you are

(Shawn leaves)

Angela: Wait Shawn

Marie: Who was he mom?

Angela: just someone I used to know.

Marie: Just promise me you won't leave dad for him.

Angela: I promise.

(Marie leaves the Kitchen Angela pulls out her cell phone and calls Topanga.)

Angela: Hey Topanga I tried to kiss Shawn and Marie walked in. Then Shawn got mad at me.

Topanga Over Phone: He just got engaged Angela. He didn't come there to see you he came there to meet Marie.

Angela: I just don't think I ever really got over him.

Topanga Over Phone: Then why didn't you tell him Marie was his daughter and marry him sixteen years ago.

Angela: Because I was scared. I had just received word my father was in the hospital.

(Angela Flash back.)
