A Crazy Conversation [A Play]

[Setting: Two different computers, in two different houses. 'Defying Gravity' by Kristin Chenoweth is playing in the background.]1

Kim: Hey!2

Ella: Hey!3

K: Whazzup?4

E: Not much, you?5

K: Same.6

E: I see.7

K: Happy Easter!8

E: Happy Easter to you too!9

K: I'm listening to the awesomest song right now. It's called 'Defying Gravity' by Kristin Chenoweth. It's a Broadway song.10

E: Omigod I love Broadway!11

K: So how did the breakup go?12

E: Not so well. He kept on saying he loved me.13

K: Boys are so stupid--especially the ones who POST THEIR GRADES ON THE INTERNET!!!14

E: That is so annoying.15

[Kim's friend Lana takes over her computer, with Kim's consent.]16

Lana: I think that's hot! So sexay!17

Ella: Omigod Kim!18

L: What?19

E: That was so funny!20

L: What was?21

E: You said that his good grades were sexay!22

L: Yah, so?23

E: You weren't kidding?24

L: No. Why'd you think I was kidding?25

E: Cuz I didn't think you'd think that him posting his grades on the net was sexay.26

L: Well, he's hot and smart.27

E: Oh I get it now! You like him cuz he's hot and smart, not cuz he was showing off!28

L: Exactly. The posting thing wasn't sexay, but hey, he's proud of his grades.29

E: OK never mind. I understand now. Yes, I see how that could be hot. ..... What does he look like?30

L: He's...well...smexy. [Yells] HAWT!!31

E: Smart plus sexy? Ohhhhh......Hot is always a plus.32

L: Smexy beast!33

E: Is his hair still blue?34

L: It's black. Gorgeous!35

E: Yay! Black haired dudes are hawt. Yay for smexy beasts! ..... Is it natural or dyed?36

L: Dyed, but it looks awesome!37

E: Ooooooo.38

L: He's tall.39

E: How tall?40

L: Six feet.41

E: Tall guys are hot! ..... How old again?42

L: Sixteen. He hit me with a baked bean. ..... It was HAWT!!!43

E: Really? When?44

L: A couple of days ago. I saw him at the mall.45

E: He sounds fabulous. I give my approval. [Nods earnestly]46

L: He was visiting someone. I said hi. He threw a baked bean at me. I saw him at the food court.47

E: Cool!48

L: I know! I went to say hi later in Kohls and he threw a dress at me. 49

E: Oooooo he's flirting!50

L: Yup!51

E: It is so the classic love story.52

L: He sent me a hate email. It said I looked like a rodent.53

E: Omigod you don't look like a rodent! He is flirting. 54

L: It also told me to brish the bush on my head. I asked him if he was kidding. ..... [Matter-of-a-factly] He said no. He told me to go someplace warm and toasty.55

E: Why?56

L: I dunno. I asked him who he was staying with. ..... He ran. It was sooooo romantic.57

E: Classic love story...Girl pretends to hate boy but actually loves how he pisses her off, guy pretends to piss off girl as a means of flirting.58

L: On his xanga he said I was stalking him. I wasn't. ..... I was only following him. ..... A lot.59

E: No matter what he says, he is flirting.60


L: I hope he was.61

E: What's his name again? Michael?62

L: Michael Kostner. He's the brother of a friend of mine. He lives in Indiana.63

E: Awesome.64

L: Every time he tells me to die, it makes me swoon. .......... He told Laura that I'm a freak and she should never talk to me again. .......... [Starts laughing] I had you fooled! [Laughs some more.]
65

E: What do you mean?66

L: I was joking the whole time!67

E: Omigod. 68

L: Actually, Lana was.69

E: YOU SMELLY POOH! [laughs] I knew it didn't sound like you. I was like "Did she just say sexay?" 70

L: Well, it wasn't her. It was Lana. ..... She's sexay. [Laughs]71

E: Oh hi well this is Ella.72

L: Well, I've got to go. Talk to ya later.73

E: Later! 74

    lol this is funny. I am not sure exactly how to rate this as a play but it is an interesting conversation that sounds rather similar to ones i've had with friends. girls together can come up with some crazy statements. very nice write, I enjoyed it.
