Forbidden Love

Narrator :
Previously on Forbidden Love, Mary almost spilled the beans when Mr. Smith questioned her about Margaret being outgoing lately...

Margaret :
WHAT?!! Mr. Smith asked you about me going out today?!!

Mary :
(In her whisper-shout tone : Keep your voice down, Mrs. Smith! You might wake Mr. Smith up!!)

Narrator :
However, Mary was able to cover up for Margaret...

Alexander :
Do you know what is she up to?

Mary :
(Feeling nervous)
Umm....

Alexander :
Mary?

Mary :
(Shocked)
Ohh, yes! A few weeks ago, Mrs. Smith has been going for some ballet classes!!!

Alexander :
Ballet classes?

Mary :
Y-yes!

Alexander :
I see...

Mary :
(In her mind - Phew!)

Narrator :
Just when Mary thought she'd done a good job...

Alexander :
(Takes off his glasses)
Please tell Margaret that I would like to see her dancing ballet by this weekend since my meeting got postponed.

Mary :
(Shocked)
(In her mind - SHIT!!!)

Narrator :
The daughter of the multi-millionaire, Alexander Smith, got into some trouble while searching for her best friend in a club...

Random Guy :
(Kissing Christina's neck)

Christina :
(Cries)
Le-Let me go!!

Random Guy :
(Tears Chrissy's red-checkered sleeves)

Christina :
(Cries out loud)

Narrator :
However...

(Pulls the drunk man by his collar from the back)

Random Guy :
(Shocked)

(Punches him in the stomach)

Random Guy :
(Falls onto the ground)
Ugh!!

Christina :
(Shocked)

(Takes off his blue jeans jacket and put around Christina)

Location : The Great Mansion

Christina :
Miss Rose!

Rose :
Yes, Miss Smith?

Christina :
Where's the jacket? Have you washed it? I need it.

Rose :
Yes, right away!

Christina :
(In her mind - I just can't stop thinking about him! Those brown eyes got me up all night. Is this love? It can't be! I need to see him again... but how?! How do I find him?)

Rose :
(Pants)
Miss...Smith...., here's your... jacket.

Christina :
(In her mind - The club. Yes! Fantasy Club!! Since he's there last night, he might be there again!! I will have to ask Roxanne to accompany me. Wait! Even if I found him there, how am I going to talk to him? How should I start the conversation?)

Rose :
(Waving at Christina)
Miss Smith?

Christina :
(In her mind - Yes!!! The jacket! The jacket he gave me last night!! I can use it as an excuse to start a conversation with him! I will be returning the jacket to him and then I will introduce myself to him an-...)

Rose :
(Raises her voice)
Miss Smith!!!

Christina :
(Shocked)
Wh-What is it?

Rose :
(Handing the jacket to Christina)
The jacket...

Christina :
(Gets the jacket from Rose)
Oo-oohh!! I'm sorry!

Rose :
(Smiles)
It's okay, Miss Smith. Is there anything else you need?

Christina :
(Holding the jacket)
Oh, no. Thank you, Rose!
(Puts on the jacket)

Rose :
(Smiles)
It's my pleasure, Miss Smith.
(Gets back to work)

Mary :
(Has witnessed the whole incident)
Chrissy.

Christina :
Oh, Aunt Mary!

Mary :
Is something bothering you?

Christina :
(Twirls her hair)
Umm... I'm just thinking about the preparations for college. It's nothing!
(Titters)

Mary :
What a nice jacket.

Christina :
You mean this? Yeah, it's nice.

Mary :
Is it yours?

Christina :
(Twirls her hair again)
Of course, it's mine! What silly question is this?
(Titters)

Mary :
I didn't know you like to wear men's jacket.

Christina :
(Surprised)
I thought it was a women's jacket? I guess I must've not checked it before making a purchase.
(In her mind - Oh Lord, just kill me!! I suck at telling lies.)

Mary :
Are you hidi-...

Christina :
(Looks at her wrist)
Oh no, look at the time! I have to go, Aunt Mary!!! Talk to you later! Bye!

Narrator :
There's no watch on your wrist, Christina.
(Facepalm)

Location : Roxanne's house

Katharine :
(Enters the house)
What a day!

Roxanne :
(In her mind - Chrissy's waiting. I'd better get going.)
Where did I left my earrings?
(On the way to front door)

Katharine :
Where have you been last night, young lady?

Roxanne :
Umm... I went over to.. to... yeah! To Chrissy's house! Yeah, Chrissy's house!

Katharine :
You are lying. Miss Mary told me both of you were out.

Roxanne :
Fine, fine. We went clubbing last night...

Katharine :
(Upset)
Roxanne!! How many times do I have to tell you not to go to these places?!! It's dangerous! You're grounded!

Roxanne :
(Annoyed)
Mom, I'm 19! I'm not a child anymore!!

Katharine :
You are grounded, young lady. You heard that?!

Roxanne :
(Upset)
You are always so busy with work. Do you even have time for me??!! Don't you ever care for me?!

Katharine :
(Upset)
How could you say that?! I work hard so that you can go to college. Instead of
wasting your time wandering around and being home late at night, why don't you get prepared for college?!

Roxanne :
(Upset)
If only dad was here...

Katharine :
(Upset)
What did you say?!!!

Roxanne :
(Upset)
I said, "If only dad was here!!!!!"

Katharine :
(Upset)
If you like that bastard so much. Why don't you move out and live with him?!!
(Shocked)

Roxanne :
(Shocked)
Dad is alive?!

Katharine :
(Shocked)
Roxanne, I-I can explain. You hav-...

Roxanne :
He's alive?!!

Katharine :
Yes bu-...

Roxanne :
(Upset and disappointed)
You lied to me!!! You told me that he was dead before I was born!!!

Katharine :
(Holds Roxanne's hands)
I can explain, you have to believe me!!

Roxanne :
(Upset and disappointed)
How could you?!!
(Pushes Katharine's hands away)
I'm leaving!

Katharine :
(Cries)
Roxanne!!!

Christina :
(Sitting alone at the corner)
In her mind - (Where's Roxanne? I wonder what took her so long.)

Random Guy :
Hey baby, wanna have a drink?

Christina :
(Smiles politely)
It's okay.
(In her mind - There she is!)
Roxy!! Over here!

Roxanne :
(Goes to Christina)

Christina :
Oh my, Roxy! What's wrong?

Roxanne :
(Tells Christina everything)
Christina :
(Surprised)
That means your dad is somewhere out there!

Roxanne :
Yes. I will have to find him but I need to find a place for now.

Christina :
You can stay with me!

Roxanne :
I'm afraid I'll be a burden to you and your family. You haven't even talked to them abo-..

Christina :
Don't be silly! That's what friends do. We help each other.

So, are you really moving out of your house?

Roxanne :
Yes, I have made up my mind.

Christina :
How about your mom? She was just worried about you. You do know she cares about you!

Roxanne :
Chrissy, that's enough. I don't wish to talk about it right now.

Christina :
I'm sorry...

Roxanne :
Don't worry, it's nothing.

Christina :
(Nods)

Roxanne :
Let's talk about you. Why did you want to come here all of a sudden. That's not the usual you.

Christina :
(Blushes)
Well, it's because of...

Roxanne :
(Surprised)
Wait, you're blushing!!

Christina :
(Blushes)
No! I did not!!

Roxanne :
Yes, you are! It's so obvious!! You're all red!
(Teasing Christina)
Let me guess, is it Mr. Knight-In-A-Shining-Armour who makes you blush?!

Christina :
(Blushes even harder)
Roxanne! Can you stop it?!

Roxanne :
(Laughs)
Okay, okay! So, why are we here?
