Exercise 10

Delphine and Chad are standing in an empty waiting room while Delphine sits in the bumpy waiting room chair furiously knitting, Chad paces the room anxiously looking as if he's about to scream.

Chad: (mumbling) I can't believe this..incredible... Delphine this is so outrageous

Delphine: (cutting him off without looking up) This would never be an issue if it weren't for you!

The waiting room door opens abruptly


Chad: (he turns to the door) Do you have the results?

A preoccupied looking receptionist motions for them to come in

Delphine gets up and they follow her in to the doctors office

Delphine: fine then. let's see what the damage is.

Chad: (scratching his forehead) Well, Ill hope you're happy now

They follow the nurse to the check out desk where Chad is handed some test results and a bill.

Chad: Jesus Christ, this can't be right...( he looks aside to Delphine)

Delphine cranes her neck to glance at the test result

Delphine: Ok... so I'm not pregnant...well, I could've sworn- wait maybe

Chad: I don't know what to tell you, I think this is a sign. Now isn't the right time for us.

(Chad shuffles over to look at the check and winces)
(Delphine glances at the ball and then grabs it)

Delphine: What?! When, why is there a $500 bill for Viagra and I'm not even pregnant!! WHAT!?? Stupid, stupid, stupid... I should have listened to my parents hey were right about you...
(delphine looks down and shakes her head angrily)
Chad: I have something to tell you

Delphine: What is it now, you going to complain some more? go do it. It's not like I don't hear it everyday.

Chad: I'm not going to complain this is my fault, What you need to know is--

Delphine: WHAT! What could you say thats that damn important that I don't already know!

Chad: I was born a woman.

Delphine stands there blankly and here eyes glaze over, she looks down and begins to contort her face.

Delphine: I have something to tell you too, I'm a Lesbian.

they both look off and then their eyes meet and they both smile.

(Delphine for the first time in a while looks genuinely happy, although it is totally unfitting)
Chad looks back at her mirroring her joy and they both look like they're about to explode.

Chad and Delphine:( Join hands lovingly and scream) SEX CHANGE MARRIAGE!!!
