Meeting John Harrison

Scene:

(A woman of middle age throws a book on a girl's face with full force and started thrashing her anger).

I knew it..

I knew it from the beginning.

You'll destroy our family's name.

Do you go to school for these things? (Grabs her hair and jerks)

Girl: no mother, I don't know. I don't know who wrote this.

Mother: Don't lie in front of me. I know you very well.

Girl: Leave my hair, please. It's hurting (her cheeks are all wet with tears).

Mother: (left hair with a jerk) Now you'll not go to school and it's my final decision. Now I'll see how you go to school.

Girl: (tries to stop her mother and spread her arm towards her but she leaves. She started crying more loudly). But I didn't do anything. Please believe me. Believe me, mother. (Tears are flowing).

She suddenly cleans her face and see a book on which it was written "I LOVE YOU, I WILL WAIT FOR YOUR RESPONSE, MEET ME IN THE LIBRARY TOMORROW, HERE'S MY NUMBER *562369.....*, YOUR OWN JOHN"

She closes the book and lay down.

Next day:

Mother comes into her room saying loudly; Don't you want to go to school?

Girl: (suddenly wake up and sees her mother with astonishment, the mother leaves and she starts preparing for school).

While going to school, she is continuously thinking about her mother's behavior, which was different today. She never averts from her words but today..... How?....

With this thinking, she broke into a guy and her books fell.

A guy turned his face and was about to bully her. The anger on his face can be seen but he stopped himself from saying when he saw her face.

Guy: hey! Aina you?... I mean.. I'm sorry....(bows his head and started trolling fingers in his hair with embarrassment).

Girl: it's ok.. no worries.....(sits and starts collecting her fallen books).

Guy... No, no .... Please... I'll help you ( he helped her in collecting books from the ground).

She was about to go to her class when he suddenly stops her saying;

"Aina"

She turned back and asked ; hmmm

Guy: I'm John Harrison (spreads his hand for a handshake)....

Aina: I'm sorry .. I don't shake hands with strangers...

John: oh... It's ok... (She was about to go) listen.

Aina: now what?

John: Can we meet in the library?

Aina: And why would I meet you?

John: please Aina, I want to tell you something.

Aina: but I don't know you.... (Suddenly remembers the last line of the written piece on the book ) ....okay ... I'll come to the library.

John: Thanks, Aina.

Aina goes to her classroom and John kept on watching her until she disappears.

At library:

John is waiting for Aina and watching his wristwatch again and again.. and Aina enters

John runs towards her and grabs her hand...

Aina: (awkwardly seeing his behavior)

John: Aina, I want to tell you something special.... I mean .... I like you.

Aina: what? (Starts running towards the door and John grabbed her hand from behind)

John: Aina... Please ... Aina listen ..... I love you.... I love you the most. I know you don't have Fri.......

Aina cut his words and jerks his hand by saying;

Stop it .... Just stop... And don't stalk me ...ok....

John: Aina, I know you don't have father and how your step mother treats you..... I know you never had friends... Nobody ever made you feel special... You never got attention and affection of parents like others .. but I want to give you. I want to give you everything you want .. I want to make you feel special and its my promise to you ..I'll do everything for you I can till my last breath....

Aina: (angerly) if you have spoken now may I go ?

John: Aina (tries to stop her but she leaves).
