Scene 6
EXT.
Its dark and you can only hear the voices of two guys arguing. There is a sudden flash of light and slowly revealed is Ahmed’s father and uncle looming over a skip.
Father
“Ok so you grab onto one end and ill grab onto the other and we will lift it out together”
Uncle
“I thought you said it was right outside your house, how we suppose to get this back exactly ”
Father
“Look will you stop moaning and hurry up”
The two men lean over and both pick a corner of the table and lift it out of the skip. The desk is big and the two men seem to struggle lifting the desk over the skip and onto the side pavement. They place the desk on the sidewalk.
Uncle
“Now what?”
Father
“Come on son, get in there and get the chair”
The boy looks reluctant and stays on the sidewalk examining the desk.
Father
“Quick now we haven’t got all day, we need to carry this thing back”
Uncle
“Oh I knew we are going to end up having to walk miles carrying this damn thing, you are out of your mind”
Uncle- looking towards Ahmed
“Hey how much does a desk cost. I’ll pay for it and we can leave this old man to do this himself”
Uncle winks at Ahmed
Father- also addressing Ahmed
“Your uncle knows you have the desk now so he offers to buy you one. He wasn’t so quick to come up with this suggestion yesterday.”
Father
“Right come on, lift it. Lets go”
Cut
The three of them are shown making there way through
Something else i couldn’t get out of my head:
Elena: i am really interested in you... me: so did you work today? Should i think more about Elena? Or more about how i am inept at handling compliments?
Im waiting for a number of things to kick start at the moment. Motivation to transfer money to George. even though it will take me 2 minutes.
motivation to actually enroll in a language course.
motivation to unravel my relationship status and decide what i want. actually i think i know what i want. but i just want too many things. i think i do (now what i want).
i feel old.
mid mid life i guess. shouldn't i feel like getting married soon?
i saw Angela yesterday and it hit me in how far behind i am in the rat race for maturity. shes going on maternity leave. i don't even know how to apply for it!
today, i was so tired that i actually slept the whole journey on the train. i woke up the stop before to twitch and get up, only to realise that it wasn't my destination. then i realised how incoherent i was to the outside world at the moment. hard habit to kick. (metaphor or simile?)
How hard to face things.
happy significances:
getting a free latte from pret.
finding another space invader.
my brother listening to kings of
Justyna appreciating libertines.
Yanyan texting out the blue.
not having the TV on for three days now.
long awaited bath awaiting for me. awaiting. awaiting. prolonging.
muSICK!:
yeah yeah yeahs.
libertines.
metronomy.
white stripes.
downloadingtalkingheads.
and this, standard!...
