SCENE 1
Ana's Bedroom
David, Ana, and Jimena are already in the bedroom
they are about to watch a movie
David: Jimena, Did you brought chips and soda? [Connecting some cables at the tv]
Jimena: Yeah! [Rising the chip and soda with both of her hands]
David: [Turns around, looks at Jimena] Just that? Apparently you are not eating...
Jimena: No, I wanna lose ten pounds. Zero carbs, for a month...
David: [Rolls eyes] Alcohol is sugar, so... just saying
Jimena: [Annoyingly confused] I said zero carbs, no sugar
David and Ana look at each other
Ana: Jimena, but sugars and carbs are the ones...
David: don't even bother
Pause
Ana: I'll get some chips, I owe her some money
David: Ok, [Resumes to connect the speaker to the tv]
Ana leaves the stage
Jimena sits on the floor and open the bag of chips
David: Eureka! [shouts] I did it! I can finally use this home theatre
Jimena: [Chewing] Something is wrong with Ana
David: How would you know? [figuring out how to use the remote control]
Jimena: I don't know... I can feel it
David: What do you mean by that? [grabs the manual]
Jimena: She offered herself to go to the store! She doesn't even bother to eat if she has to get up of her bed!
David: I guess she is just hungry [reads the manual, while looking at the remote control]
Jimena: David! [Snap fingers] Focus here! The tv can wait!
David: [Leaving the remote control in a table near by] Well?
Jimena: She is acting nicer!
David: She is always nice
Jimena: David, is Ana we are talking here... She is nice only when you are around—
David: —Don't!
Ana enters the stage with the food
Ana: I'm back!
Jimena: Sweeet!
David: Ana you can trust us! Tell us what is going on
Ana: huh?
Jimena: [Whispers to herself] Este pendejo [Rolls eyes]
David: [Comes close to Ana] Ana its fine if you don't want to tell us, but I'll let you know that Jimena and I, would always be on your side. No matter what
Jimena: aww you are so sweet [sarcastic]
David: shut up
Jimena: suelta la sopa
Ana: Suelta? The soup?
David: She wants you to tell her what is going on
Ana: I should resume my Spanish classes. I met an Albanian girl that learnt Spanish from watching telenovelas
Jimena: hmm... interesting
David: No! We are not watching that... my ex used to watch those things... They are fucking boring
Ana: Buuuu!
Jimena: First of all, your ex was a whore. She has slept with the entire school. Second she is ugly
David: [Angry] Stop! ... you are not funny anymore
Jimena: I wasn't trying to be funny
Ana: David, I don't want to be mean, she did slept with Jon ... While you were dating
David: Stop! we are not talking about this
Pause
Ana: I started dating a guy
Pause
Ana: I like him. Like seriously
Jimena: How did you two meet?
Ana: During my Economics class. Why?
Jimena: Just checking...
David: Why we haven't heard of this?
Ana: We just started dating this week
David: Still wondering why I haven't heard of him
Jimena: I though there were no secrets between us
Ana: [Laugh] But, I did told you
Jimena: Wait ... I'm remembering ... Never mind, still no clue
David: ...
Ana: [Laugh] It's fine, no worries
Jimena: That's awesome but, I think you and David should be dating
David: I support that claim
Jimena Hi-fives David
Jimena: What's his major?
Ana: Business ...
Jimena: Don't even bother
Ana: Why?
Jimena: All business majors are womanizers, ley de la vida!
David: [rolls eyes] Don't listen to her. What's his name?
Ana: Joseph
David: Any last name?
Ana: Smith
Jimena: [Turns to look at David, then back to Ana] Sweety, he is not worth it.
David: Jimena Stop! Look I'll ask around if someone knows something about him. Just please do not listen to Jimena
Jimena: Joseph Smith? I don't think you should go out with him... Is not a good idea
David: How would you know?
Jimena: I— I— I mean, everyone knows about him, his reputation proceeds him
Ana: What if he actually likes me? What if he actually loves me?
Jimena: You don't understand, that is never going to happen
Ana: What? I'm not good enough for someone like 'Joseph Smith'?
Jimena: Is not that...
Ana: Then what?
Jimena: I—
Ana: —I get it
Jimena: Really?
Ana: Yeah I do, you are jealous. For the first time someone looks at me, and you feel like your 'beauty' is threatened! Well guess what? I'm sick of you [tears on her eyes]
Jimena: Ana! No! Is not that! You are awesome ...
Ana: [Crying] Stop! Jimena for once be supportive, this is important to me
Jimena: Ana... I
Ana: [Crying] Leave me alone
Ana Goes of Stage, (to the other side, she went to cry at the bathroom)
David: Should I? [Points at the bathroom door]
Jimena: No
David: Should we stalk him on social media?
Jimena: No!
David: In my personal experience...
Jimena: Shut it with your personal experiences
Pause
David: What was that all about?
Jimena: Joseph Smith has broken too many hearts to count. Just stating a fact
David: I meant the little telenovela that you put on stage
Jimena: If this berrinche, would avoid Ana for getting her heart broken, then let it be
David: There's something you are not telling me
Jimena: Well, Guess what? Is none of your business, Metiche!
David: Jimena, come on!
Jimena: You just care about el chisme? Don't you?
David: No, I genuinely care about you two
Jimena: Oh, that's the sweets things I've ever heard from you. Just wondering if you actually mean it
David: Well, truth be told, I do mean it
Jimena: I think what you are actually implying is: You are the only best friend left, 'cuz I ended up dating and cheating the other ones. Oh, and I'm in love with your best friend Ana.
David: That's a great summary of my life, but in fact I genuinely care about you two
Jimena: [Rolls eyes] Como digas
David: What happened to the non-judging policy?
Jimena: Still valid! Just stating facts here, not judging
David: Jimena, come on!
Jimena: Come on what?
David: Aren't you going to tell me, what's going on?
Jimena: I don't understand where you are going with this
David: I just want to know what's wrong
Jimena: If you knew, you couldn't fix. El daño está hecho
David: Jimena, cut the drama!
Jimena: Is not drama, its true
David: Then tell me, so we can fix it together
Pause
Jimena: The thing is that I've been sleeping with Joseph for the past couple of weeks.
David: I swear to God, I cannot believe you! Can you be more irresponsible? You've been having sex with your best friend's boyfriend! Jimena, this has been your longest friendship. You've got to stop doing this!
Jimena: If we put it technical terms, I slept with Joseph before she even mentioned him, so...
David: Jimena just shut up! This it, We must fix this
Jimena: Fix what?
David: Your stupidity, before you lose the last girl who actually likes you
Jimena: You mean, the last of my girlfriends who may actually likes you
David: Shut up
Jimena: I was right? Acerté?!
David: Its none your goddamn business; Its settle. You will stop sleeping with Joseph
Jimena: That's not it
David: Oh, there's more?
Jimena: We've been having sex for the past couple of weeks ...
David: That was already settled
Jimena: The thing is that...
David: Stop going around, tell me!
Jimena: I'm pregnant
David: Are you sure it's Joseph?
Jimena: SI!
David: How about James?
Jimena: We haven't seen each other in forever
Both of them sit on the floor in silence, eating chips waiting for Ana to get out of the bathroom.
Ana: Guys stop. He invited me to a party...
Jimena: When? and Where?
Ana: At his house, and I'm not sure about the when. Probably I should ask him
Jimena: Do not texts him first
Ana: Why not? We've been texting each other for the past couple of weeks
Jimena: Do you text him first?
Ana: ... no
Jimena: That's a good sign
David: I mean, it looks kinda needy to text first. In my personal experience
Ana: So what do I'm supposed to do?
Jimena: Wait until he texts you the address—
David: —And from them you start to talk to him. Ask little questions. That's what I do
David Hi-fives Jimena
