Act III/Scene VI
(Morning, 7:30 a.m. Desi's eating breakfast with Itachi before he heads off to ANBU HQ.)
D: So. . .how was the patrol last night?
I: We didn't see any sign of that freak. But we found Hoshigake Kisame's body in the river.
(Desiree acts surprised)
D: What?! He's dead?! Who killed him?!?
I: The freak did! We found his little bat-shaped shuriken embedded in his skin. I can't believe he killed. (Itachi falls silent.) I mean he was an S-rank missing nin who never really loses a fight and that damn vigilante took him out.
(Desiree sees anger in her husband's eyes. As he gets up to leave, she remembers what she wanted to say.)
D: Wait! I have something to tell you that'll brighten your day (She pauses, trying to put her "news" into something easy to say.)! Um . . .sit down, please.
(He pulls up a chair close to her and takes her hand.)
I: Okay, what is it? Whatever it is, I'll support you!
D: I'M PREGNANT.
(He looks at her with a blank expression then he hugs her.)
I: (excited) That IS the best news I've heard all month! You know what? This weekend, we're going to have a little vacation, just you and me. When we get back-(Out of nowhere, Marvin's, Desiree's, and Patrick's friend, Kurt taps on a window, holding two thumbs up. Desiree becomes embarrassed and tells him to leave. Itachi laughs at the random moment and continues.)- As I was saying, after a vacation, we'll have a baby shower. You can invite any of your friends and I'll handle the rest (he looks at the clock). Oh, gosh. I am late. You're right. That did make my day! (He kisses her on her forehead) I'll be home at five.
D: Bye, honey.
(As he closes the front door, She hears Itachi yell "I'M GONNA BE A DADDY!")
