SCENE I
(Ten years ago, Vincent and Vita were in a big beautiful park. They were playing hide-and-seek.)
Vincent: 5.4.3.2.1…Are you ready? I’m coming!! Where are you? OH! I see you. Come on now. You are behind the tree. You have lost.
Vita: (not reconciled) Oh!!! It’s too bad. I thought I could win the game.
Vincent: Ha! Ha! You should have more practice.
Vita: OK! Next time I will not let you find me so easily and quickly.
(Vincent suddenly holds Vita’s hand.)
Vincent: (Smiling) I don’t know why I am always happy when I am with you.
Vita: Yes, I have the same feeling.
Vincent: I hope I can play with you all my life and always see your smile.
Vita: We will always be together and never separate.
Vincent: Yes, I think we will not separate in the future.
Vita: (sweetly) I like you.
Vincent: I like you, too.
SCENE II
(Now Vincent, Vita and Vincent’s Sister Clare are in a small house. They are ready to move into a big house. So they are packing their luggage.)
Vincent: Hurry up. The car is waiting for us.
Vita: OK. I ‘m almost finished.
(Vita takes the luggage to the car.)
Clare: I will finish soon. Too much luggage.
(This moment Clare finds an old book. She reads it.)
Clair: What’s this? It’s like father’s diary. Some papers. Let me see. Wow!!
(She cries unexpectedly. Vincent runs to her.)
Vincent: What happened?
Clare: (Amazed) Look at this paper. The paper says I am not your real younger sister. I am just an adopted daughter.
Vincent: Oh, my’ Is it true? It is unbelievable. It happens so suddenly. But don’t worry. No matter who you are, you are my sister forever.
Clare: (Excited) I don’t know why. Now I am not feeling sad. Actually I feel happy. I think maybe the reason is I can love you. I can marry you. It makes me so excited.
Vincent: (seriously) What did you say? We are impossible to be together even though you are not my real younger sister. Don’t be so silly.
Clare: Why impossible? I have loved you since I was a child. When I saw you play with Vita, I always felt jealous and sad. Now I can get hold of this chance.
Vincent: No, I just treat you like my sister. I only love Vita. I think I can’t live with you anymore. So you live here and I will pay the rent for you.
(Clare holds Vincent’s hands.)
Clare: (Sorrowful) No! Don’t leave me alone. I can’t live without you.
Vincent: Sorry I should go.
(Vincent pushes Clair’s hand away and runs out the house.)
Clare: I don’t think I can live here. But where should I go? I just know that I will never give up.
