11. EXT SUPERMARKET SAME DAY
PRECIOUS DRIVES HER CAR TO A STOP IN FRONT OF THE SUPERMARKET AND KILLS THE ENGINE. SHE TURNS TO FACE STEPHEN WHO COMPLETELY IGNORES HER AND CONTINUES TO STARE AT THE OTHER SIDE OF THE ROAD AWAY FROM HER. SHE OPENS HER MOUTH TO SPEAK TO HIM BUT THINKS AGAINST IT AND SIGHS AS SHE OPENS THE DOOR TO THE CAR AND MAKES TO STEP OUT OF THE CAR. SHE ALMOST SLIPS AND FALLS BUT QUICKLY CLUTCHES THE SIDE OF THE CAR DOOR BEFORE SHE MANAGES TO REGAIN CONTROL. SHE TURNS TO FACE STEPHEN WHO DOES NOT EVEN TURN TO FACE HER. ANGER FILLS HER EYES AS SHE SNAPS AT HIM ANGRILY…
PRECIOUS
I was just about to fall, Stephen! Surely, you can’t pretend not to have noticed that!
STEPHEN
(Sighs) Precious, you didn’t contract me to help you out when you want to fall from your car.
PRECIOUS
So you would sit back inside this car and watch me fall down without saying or doing anything to help?
STEPHEN
Yes, Precious.
PRECIOUS GLARES AT HIM ANGRILY AND SIGHS BEFORE SHE SLAMS THE CAR DOOR SHUT AND WALKS OFF INTO THE SUPERMARKET. HE SMILES SLIGHTLY AS HE WATCHES HER WALK INTO THE SUPERMARKET…
