Eppy #2 Now What?

* in the Kitchen

Lucy: Well.

Kevin: Ummmm.

Lucy: JUST SPILL IT!!!!
Sorry I yelled but this is getting frustrating.

*Kevin pace the floor

Lucy: Whatever it is I will always support because I love you. You even have children who will support you no matter. So please share whatever it is with me.

Kevin: All right.

*Kevin takes a deep breath

Kevin: As you know I am promoted. They want me to be a captain of a new squad they are forming in.

Lucy: in Hawaii, right?

Kevin: umm..that's the problem

Lucy: Don't tell me we are moving again.

Kevin: I am sooo sorry!!

Lucy: Where are we moving?

Kevin: Orlando, Florida.

Lucy: WHAT????

Kevin: Baby, I am so sorry but I really want to take this promotion.

Lucy: So work is more important then family.

Kevin: I never said that.

Lucy: The family already made a sacrifice for you when we moved here. We are not doing it again.

Kevin: I promise this will be the last move

Lucy: You said that when we moved here.

Kevin: Yeah.

Lucy: *trying to keep her voice low* Kevin, we are happily settled here. We have home, life, and a lot more. You don't need that promotion.

Kevin: Hold on.you said you will support me

*Kids walk

Mercy: Are we still getting ice cream, Daddy?

Kevin: Of course. Anything for my precious angels.

Lucy: *says to Kevin in a cold tone* While don't you stay out longer and get some dinner and even watch a movie.

Kevin: Lucy.

Lucy: We will talk about it later when I don't feel like thowing my laptop at you.

Kevin: Just think about it. We will be back around 9 pm.

Kids: Bye Mommy!

Lucy: Bye Kids! Have fun.

*Kevin looks at Lucy one more time but Lucy is busy with her mounds of papers

*2 hour later- 8 PM *Lucy is on the phone in the living room with cookie dough ice cream and tissue box

Lucy: If he loves our family he won't do this.

Mary: Did you even ask him why he wants this promotion?

Lucy: *hesitantly* No.

Mary: Ask for his side of opinion. Also remember you moved to Hawaii not just for Kevin but also so you can be closer to your publisher. Lucy: Good point.

Mary: Talk to Kevin calmly

Lucy: *laughs* That's gonna be hard.

Mary: *laughs* I know!

Lucy: I better let you go.

Mary: Bye

Lucy: Bye

One hour later - 9:00

*Lucy is still in the living room with an empty carton of ice cream

Mark: We ate pizza and ice cream.

Lorena: Watched Sinbad.

Mercy: It was good but I gotta go bathroom

*Lucy laughs

Lucy: Glad you had a good time but its bedtime

Mark: Mommy.guess what we found!!

Lucy: What?

Lorena: Doggy and it goes ruff ruff

Lucy: What?

*Kevin walks in

Kevin: It was roaming the street so we picked it up

Lucy: Kids go upstairs and get ready for bed. I will be up soon to help you.

*Mark and Lorena leaves

Lucy: You picked up a stray dog? Are you nuts? *looks at Kevin as if he is crazy

*Mercy walks in

Lucy: Mercy go upstairs and get ready for bed. Tell your siblings I will be up in awhile.

Mercy: Okay dokey

*Lucy turn to Kevin

Lucy: Explain because today aliens captured my husband. He had done stupid things today that I don't understand.

Kevin: All I did was get a promotion and picked up a stray dog.

Lucy: All you did?!?!?!?!?!?!?

Kevin: What's so wrong with getting a promotion?

Lucy: It's a promotion that is going to change our lives!!!! Do I need to spell it out for you?

Kevin: It isn't gonna change that much. Our lives will be the same just in different cities.

Lucy: What's wrong with you?

Kevin: Don't be selfish

Lucy: Me selfish????

Kevin: Look I am tired and I don't want to deal with this now. I am going to go and help the kids.

Lucy: You don't want to deal with me? Fine then don't deal with me. I will leave so you don't even have to see me.

Kevin: see you are being selfish what about the kids.

Lucy: Right the kids need me so you leave.

Kevin: Me???

Lucy: GET OUT!!!!

Kevin: FINE I WILL GET OUT!!!!

*Kevin slams the door as he leaves *Lucy throws a flower vase at the door

Next: Now what? What is going to happen between Lucy and Kevin? Will Kevin accept the promotion? Will the family move to Florida? What does the kids think of the move? Will the dog stay with the family?
