Previous Dialogue With Action/Description

(K walks into the door of the apartment to see M standing in the bedroom doorway. She has an almost shellshocked expression of wonderment on her face. In one hand she holds a positive pregnancy test. K's expression changes from happy to dismayed and M's face falls as well in response)

 

K

No. Oh no…

M

K? What… what’s wrong?

K

Not now, not already…

 

(K's face hardens and he walks towards her. M seems to shrink as her happy daze disappears completely)

M

But K, a child. Our child. You always said you wanted… K, be careful!

 

(K roughly pushes M aside as he strides purposefully into the bedroom, slamming her into the doorframe. Tears are beginning to glisten in her eyes.

K

Pack your things. We’re leaving.

 

(M's resolve also appears to harden as she rounds on K, still close to tears. Halfway through her statement her anger fades to reveal a desperate longing.)

M

What’s wrong with you? You’ve never acted like this… never treated me this way. And what  are you saying about leaving? I only just found you again… K!

K

(angrily) I told you to pack your things, now do it!

M

Tell me what’s going on!

K

Don’t question me. I’ll explain…I’ll explain later. Just do it, now, do you understand me?

 

(M complies and goes into the bedroom, slamming the door behind her. The anger drains from K's face. He is a man in despair, desperate, his world crushed in that instant he saw his wife in the doorway. He picks up the phone and dials a number, his hands shaking. A muffled voice can be heard replying to him on the other end of the line.)

K

It’s happened. Already… what time? Alright, alright. Are you sure? I have to… yes. Goodbye
