Kathleen hears the bathroom door open and goes closer to the toilet.

"It's just me," Emily says.

Kathleen sighs.

"What kinds of music do you like?" Emily asks.

Kathleen rolls her eyes.

"No answer then? Okay. Can you feel happiness?" Emily asks.

Kathleen sighs.

"Was Ireland nice?" Emily asks.

Kathleen rolls her eyes.

"Not answering? Okay. Why did we watch the Orphanage?" Emily asks.

Kathleen rolls her eyes again.

"Why do you keep everything a secret?" Emily asks.

Kathleen falls down on the floor.

"Why didn't you tell me you don't like me?" Emily asks.

"It wasn't personal. Hard time getting social," Kathleen says.

"So... You hate me?" Emily asks.

"Nope," Kathleen says.

"You are so hard. Who even are you?" Emily asks.

Kathleen punches the wall.

"Why are ya asking?" Kathleen asks.

"Kathleen... Why is that hard to answer? I need you to be honest," Emily says.

"I've not lied," Kathleen says.

"You just don't answer. That hurts me Kathleen. I care about you. I want you to be happy. You are such a nice person. You showed me one of the most beautiful places i've seen, i'd be somewhere far away without you showing me around, you walked with me, you had breakfast with me, you pulled me out of harms way many times, you helped me put my hair, you let me laugh with my stupid things, you lisen, you give me an idea about this country, you don't hate me for my bullshit, you help me understand others, you actually tell me the truth, you let me talk, you give me an idea about the world around me, you show me beautiful things, you have blue eyes, you look like a singer, you love children and you talk about adoption. Kathleen. How do you not see that you are amazing? How do you keep your world with us? I can not understand, How you are so flawless. You never brag about anything. You are never selfish. How do you keep it up?" Emily asks.

Kathleen pushes her hands on her ears.

"Don't," She whispers.

"What?" Emily asks.

"Don't lie," Kathleen says.

"I'm not lying," Emily says.

Kathleen opens the door to see Emily leaning on it.

"Come?" Kathleen asks.

"Where?" Emily asks.
