The One That Could have Been-Monica & Chandler PART 2

Scene: Monica & Chandler's, Rachel & Phoebe enter

Rachel: hey how are you?

Monica: disappointed, I thought you were Chandler

Phoebe: look if you want him then he's at Joey's so get your butt over there!

Monica: I wish it were that simple Pheeb's

Rachel: what happened to you guys?

Monica: we had this fight a couple of weeks ago and it just escalated from that

Rachel: Chandler said it was about surrogacy, what's the big deal about it?

Phoebe: I did it for Frank and Alice and they're fine

Monica: look you obviously heard Chandler's side so why should you hear mine!

Rachel: because I want to know why you're so against it, I think it's a good idea

Monica: oh so if some other woman was Emma's surrogate mother then you wouldn't mind

Rachel: of course I'd mind but we're not talking about me!

Monica: look guys I don't really want to talk about this

Phoebe: yea but we do
FLASHBACK

Scene: Monica & Chandler's, Chandler enters

Chandler: hey Mon

Monica: hey

Chandler: I think we need to talk about last night

Monica: me too, I was so sad all day

Chandler: so I'll get the ball rolling, I still want to do the surrogacy thing

Monica: Chandler I just can't do it, it would be too hard

Chandler: but Monica!

Monica: no see I thought about it and what about IVF?

Chandler: what about it?

Monica: well I could carry our child and it would be the best way out

Chandler: we can't do IVF!

Monica: why not!

Chandler: hello it costs thousands!

Monica: who cares what it costs this is about our child!

Chandler: then there's the risk to you

Monica: what risk!

Chandler: people die sometimes!

Monica: Chandler there's a chance of dying with a normal pregnancy but we tried that

Chandler: this is a bigger chance and anyways why would we spend all that money when the doctor told us a successful IVF pregnancy would be hard for you

Monica: so that's it we can't do it!

Chandler: hey I think if you reject my idea then I can reject yours!

Monica: I can't believe I thought we could sort this out!

Chandler: neither can I! But you are being so worse than me

Monica: how's that!

Chandler: well surrogacy is the better option!

Monica: oh have you forgotten surrogacy costs thousands as well!

Chandler: no but I think it'll be more successful

Monica: Chandler the successfulness for both is 50-50 (Joey enters)

Joey: hey guys what's for dinner?

Monica: lasagne!

Joey: wow are you two having a fight?

Monica: no we're fine!

Chandler: fine!

Mark: oh fertility a problem many couples deal with, so Chandler why don't you start

Chandler: O.K well awhile back I knew she wanted her own child, we both did, so I decided I would go through a sperm donor for her

Mark: so you didn't mind that someone else would be the baby's father?

Chandler: I did but I knew she wanted her own child

Monica: well you didn't know I didn't want some stranger to be the father but you went ahead and picked someone!
