new short play.  The usual rules apply.  I own this play and you need to contact me before producing or reproducing.

Without You
by Adam Szymkowicz

(JILL in hospital bed, asleep.  JACK sits beside her.  The beeping of the heart monitor.)

JACK
I always thought it would be me first, you know?  I didn't think.  No, I shouldn't say that.  You'll be fine.  You'll be fine.  You'll beat this.  I don't care what the doctor says.

Cheryl came by.  Oh.  I guess you don't really like her.  Well, anyway, she came to see you.  Which was nice of her.

Look you can't do this.  You can't leave me alone.  I can't just . . . not without you.  How can I . . . do anything . . . ever again?

Morgan's waiting for you.  Everyone is waiting for you.  Your job is there if you just pull through.  Won't you?

I need you.  I can't remember anything.  Everything that happened to us, who will remember if you're not here?  No one.  Like they never happened.

Remember that time we went fishing and you -- Just wake up.  Wake up!  WAKE UP!  WAKE UP!!!

Sorry.  I'm going to get some water.  Just.  Please.  Just.  Come on.  You have to.  I'm all alone.

I can't be me without you.
