A YEAR LATER
(At The Johnson's New Duplex)
(In Mike and Tara's room)

Mike: (adjusting his tie, while looking in the mirror) How do I look?

Tara: You look dashing h0ney, Particularly suave.

Mike: Not surprised. (he flicks his tongue as he winks at himself in the mirror)

Tara: (laughs) You need to hurry now, You don't wanna be late for your conference meeting

Mike: Alright h0ney (He pecks Tara on her forehead)

(Mike grabs his briefcase and heads downstairs to the garage as Tara follows him behind, Then he hops into his brand new Chevrolet car & starts it)

Tara: Wishing you the best of luck!

Mike: Thank you h0ney

(Tara waves at Mike as he drives out of the garage, And when he leaves, She returns back into the house)

(Inside The House)

Christopher: Morning Mom

Tara: Chris, How are you? Did you sleep well?

Christopher: Yup. Where's Billy and Rachel?

Tara: They've both gone to school, And your father's gone to an important conference meeting with the CEO, other personnels of Donald Patello's Restaurant and rich Chinese men.

Christopher: Hmm... (he sits on the dining chair & grabs an apple) It still all feels like a fantasy

Tara: What does?

Christopher: All these! (laughs) A year ago today, I was on a hospital bed, We used to live in a choked-up house and had pretty much middle-class mediocre lives. But now, We live in a well-furnished duplex, We eat four-square meals a day, We have three new cars in our garage, Dad earns millions per year... We're practically rich!

Tara: (smiling) It's just God we have to thank for all of this. We are nothing without his unending grace, undiluted love and mercy.

Christopher: Truly.

Tara: Why don't you go shower so you can have breakfast?

Christopher: Uhh, I might have to skip breakfast today (smiling) I have a date with my girlfriend, I told you yesterday.

Tara: (laughing) Oh I forgot, My bad. Alright then, Have fun... And don't do anything inappropriate!

Christopher: (chuckles) I hear you, Mom

(Later that morning)
(Madison arrives at the house, in a bold red satin dress and silver jewelries... With her long dark wavy hair let down to her waist)

Madison: Good morning ma

Tara: Morning sw££tie, How are you?

Madison: Splendid ma.

Tara: (astonished) My God, You look so stunning my dear! Goddesses must envy your beauty. (she twirls Madison)

Madison: (giggles) I appreciate the compliment, ma.

Tara: Don't worry, Chris will be down in a few seconds

(Just then, Christopher arrives downstairs looking gallant in a black and gold tuxedo, adorned with sequins)

Tara: (gasps) Ooooh! My little boy is all grown up (she grabs Christopher and begins pecking him all over)

Christopher: (embarrassed) MOM!

Tara: I'm sorry, I couldn't help myself

Christopher: (excited, To Madison) You look phenomenally enchanting

Madison: (smiling) Thanks...

Christopher: (to Tara) Maddie and I need to get going now

Tara: You both should have fun (silently, To Christopher) Take proper care of her okay?

Christopher: Sure mom. BYE!

Tara: Bye-bye!

(Tara waves at Christopher & Madison as they exit the house)

(That evening)
(By the indoor swimming pool)

Joe: Man, I'm thrilled our conference meeting today was a sm@sh! And its all thanks to you man!

Mike: (chuckles) What can I say?

Joe: Due to your remarkable presentation today, Those wealthy Chinese men are gonna promote Donald Patello's Restaurant worldwide and that means we'll be famous, Infact, We'll be MORE than famous!

Mike: I'm just grateful to God for the boldness I had, while presenting.

Joe: But you're really gifted, Man. I'm glad to have you as a friend.

Mike: So am I

(Mike & Joe share a friendly toast)

(DAYS LATER)
(At a memorial service held for all the deceased townspeople of Evergreen Falls)

Pastor Joseph: We are gathered here in sight of God to honor and say farewell to our departed and to commit them into the hands of our Lord, God Almighty. Let us pray.

(The congregation bow their heads in prayer)

Pastor Joseph: Our Father in heaven, We thank you that, through Jesus Christ, You have given us the gift of eternal life. Keep us firm in faith, that nothing can separate us from your unending love. When we loose someone who is dear to us, Help us to receive your comfort and to share it with one another. We thank you for what you have given to us and we now entrust ourselves to you, just as we are, with our sense of loss and of guilt, When the time has come, let us depart in peace, and see you face to face, for you are the God of our Salvation.

Congregation: AMEN

Pastor Joseph: In the name of the Father, The Son and The Holy Spirit.

Congregation: AMEN!!!!!!

(That evening)
(At The Johnson's Duplex)

Mike: May the souls of all the deceased rest in perfect peace...

Christopher: AMEN

Tara: Amen. The D£vil wanted us to join them but God's decision over our lives is mighty.

Mike: I concur. By God's grace, Nothing will ever come in between us or seperate our family ever again.

(Mike, Tara, Christopher, Billy and Rachel hold hands together)

Mike: I l0ve you all so much

Tara: I love you too h0ney

Christopher, Billy & Rachel: We l0ve you too

(The Johnson's Family all embrace each other affectionately)
