DESPAIR, A BEING'S GREAT LOSS

[SEATTLE]

Inside a tiny cabin, The woods, In the middle of nowhere, Snowing.

TV's on.

Records' playing.

Fireplace's burning.

A redneck's cooking steak on his stove.

He douses the steak with it's own juice, Kills the stove, and sets the pan aside, Cool off.

Cuts a piece and sets it on a nice store-bought plate.

With his well-done steak, He walks towards his rocking chair.

And out of nowhere, The door busts open!

A loud bang from a glock, Straight to the knee!

The redneck drops to his chair, Screaming, Steak on the ground, Platter shattered.

REDNECK
"WHAT THE FUCKKKK?!"

The man with the gun approaches, Sits ahead of the screaming man.

GUNNER
"Heya, Nelson. You dare get your ass up and i'll shoot the right knee too...And sorry about the steak."

REDNECK
"Wh-? Who the fuck are you?!"

GUNNER
"Who i am, Has no connection whatsoever with the topic i am about to bring up. Now, I know...This must be a massive shock to you, I get it, You don't know me, But maybe this'll jog your memory."

Gunner then shows a picture, A polaroid image, A girl.

GUNNER
"This happened very long ago, You see, I was sixteen, She was fifteen. We were...Practically picture perfect, Highschool sweethearts. It really was, Everything you could dream of."

REDNECK
"Wh- Fuck are you talkin abo-"

GUNNER
"I'm not done yet, Alright? Ok...Few years down the road, I was at my job, By then i was already nineteen, She was just graduating from highschool, Going to college. I was off, Doing my job, Had to leave the state for a month, Then i get this call."

REDNECK
"Call? Wha- What're you say-"

GUNNER
"INTERRUPT ME ONE MORE TIME AND I'LL PUT A HOLE IN YOUR RIGHT HAND!"

Redneck's shocked, Decides to shut his mouth off.

GUNNER
"So...Outta state, Doing my job, I get the call, From her mom. The call...That, She was in a horrible accident. And it wasn't looking good for her. So, I called up my boss, Asked him if i could leave the job for a while, Get back to town. He was fortunately, Caring enough to let me head back for a couple days."

REDNECK
"Wh- why're you tellin me th-"

Another bullet fired, The right hand.

The redneck's shrieking in pain.

GUNNER
"So i rushed back as fast as possible, I drove, 18 hours...That shit sucked, But i just had to, I stepped on the gas, Non-stop, I was about near Renton, Then i got another call from her mom...Saying, She's dead. She passed away at the hospital."
