One Man, One Woman, One Umbrella; Rain; Love.

[At a bus stop]
[Riya and Ajit are the only people there]
Ajit: Which bus are you waiting for?
Riya: 23C
Ajit: Really? Me, too.
Riya: Not a single bus has passed by here since I came. Are there no buses to-day?
Ajit: Haha. Buses run on all days. And why do you hyphenate "today"? No one does that anymore.
(Riya smiles)
Riya: No, I mean, are the buses are on strike?
Ajit: No idea. I'll wait a little longer just to be sure.
Riya: So, what's your name?
Ajit: Ajit. Yours?
Riya: Riya. Yours?
Ajit: I just told you. Ajit.
Riya: Hehe, I know.
Ajit: Looks like it's gonna rain.
Riya: ****! I don't have an umbrella.
Ajit: My, my. Girl's got a vocabulary.
Riya. Sorry.
What do you do?
Ajit: I'm doing my B.A. in literature. Second year. What about you?
Riya: I just finished my B.Com. What about you?
Ajit: I told you. B.A. Literature.
Riya: Hehe, I know.
...
Ajit: Well, it's raining.
Riya: *******. Brilliant.
Ajit: It's really falling in sheets.
Riya: How am I going to get home? I came walking.
Ajit: Me, too. Where do you live?
Riya: East Temple Road. You?
Ajit. Temple Road. You?
Riya: I just told you... aah... Oh, no, you don't!
Ajit: Well, I've got an umbrella. I'll walk you home.
Riya: Really? Thanks. Thanks a lot.
Ajit: No problem.
(Ajit opens the umbrella and both of them get under it. They walk to the right of the stage.)
[Exit Ajit and Riya]
[Enter Ajit and Riya from R.S]
Riya: This is it. This is my home.
Ajit: Nice house.
Riya: You should come over some time.
Ajit: Maybe I will.
Riya: Thanks Ajit. See you later. (Begins to move away from umbrella, but comes back.)
Riya: Ajit?
Ajit:... yea?
Riya: I... I love you.
Ajit:... I love you, too... What was your name again?

fine

Comment: I wrote this play during English class, in my English notebook, and it's the only completed thing you'll find there. Although this play contains references to stage movements, it cannot be performed on stage, because of the to-day joke, and the censored words, which are not supposed to be said. Perhaps a "beep" sound would deliver the same effect. However, it's still hard to make it rain on stage. I hope you enjoyed the play, and if you said "What?!" at the end, my play has been successful.

Like I can manage even one blog properly

helo frens,
you must be thinkin, this cant be kaushik that spelling & puncuation freak who alwayz capitalizes the beginings of sentences and avoids the letter z as far as posible but wha to say yar i dont kno its just lyk that.

AAAAAARGH!
It was just so terribly difficult for me to write that paragraph.
Right. Now this blog is another experimentation nonsensation. It's not in Kaushik's Magical World Of Nonsense because it won't be like that. I can't tell you what I'm going to do with this blog because I'm not very sure myself, and chances are I will put it in the garbage just like Many Minds. Let's see what happens, eh?
