Jack And Jill Plays - Part 36 - Eggs





About Jack and Jill Plays:

This is a new thing I'm doing.  Posting a short play every day as long as I can.  

The normal things about plays apply-- don't produce or reproduce this play without my permission.  I wrote it so I own it.  Etc.


Eggs
by Adam Szymkowicz

(JACK and JILL in mid conversation)

JACK
But it's like I don't need all the eggs.

JILL
Right.

JACK
But it wouldn't hurt to have a few more.

JILL
Sure.

JACK
I wouldn't put them all in one basket.

JILL
You gotta spread em out.

JACK
Totally.  And also not break them.

JILL
Okay.

JACK
I got a job.

JILL
What?

JACK
Yeah.  It's in Cleveland.  Sort of like what I'm doing now but maybe less terrible.

JILL
Cleveland?

JACK
Yeah.

JILL
You should take it.  You should go.  More money?

JACK
More money.

JILL
You should go.

JACK
You won't go with me?

JILL
Well.  No.  No, I won't.

JACK
It would be good to get away.

JILL
Yeah.

JACK
From all this grief.

JILL
New city.  New life.  You could forget.

JACK
Maybe.  Maybe.  I don't know.  Maybe.

JILL
You aren't going to go, are you?  You never do things that are good for you.

JACK
I went running.  Last week.

JILL
What about this week?

JACK
I went to a job interview.

JILL
Just go.  I don't need you.  I don't need you here.  If you go, it will be quiet and I think I need that.

JACK
You want me to go?

JILL
I do.  I didn't know I did but I do.  Yeah I do.

JACK
Maybe.

JILL
Sometimes I hate you.

JACK
I know.

JILL
It's more eggs.

JACK
Yeah.

JILL
So . . .
