Fades to black…
Over the next week, Paul goes to live in a
free home, set up for newly released orphans. Later that week, Rose gets
released, do to the fact, she never stopped crying after Paul left.
After Rose was released, she started
looking for Paul. After another 6 days, she found him.
Outside Paul’s place… Rose stands…
Rose: This must be
it. (Walks up the stairs) Okay, it’s room 13. Okay, here it is… (Knocks on
door) God, I really hope he’s here right now…
Door: *Unlocking
The door opens
slowly…
Paul: (Eyes widen)
Rose: (Tearing up)
Paul: R… Rose?
Rose: (Crying
happily) Yes, yes Paul… it’s me, it’s Rose.
Paul and Rose stare at one another…
Rose: Oh Paul…
Rose hugs Paul…
Rose: (Hugging)
Never leave me again…
Paul: (Hugging) I… I’m…

started dating…

Paul: …thanks…
Karen: Oh… we do

Karen: You know you’re
lucky, most people have a heck of a time finding a job.
Paul: Yeah, seems
that way. Do I take this app home to fill out?
Karen: Yep, just
take it home fill it out, and come back with it.
Paul: How did you
get a job like this so quickly?
