Scene Four

Six months later.

The dining table, a couple of chairs.

Much of the furniture gone. The rest of the room covered with the detritus of moving. Boxes, etc.

The painting above the mantel is gone.

Along one wall leans a smaller, partially wrapped canvas. It is turned away from the audience.

As the lights come up, Amir is on stage. Quietly going about the process of packing. There should be something muted about his movement/presence. As if a man chastened by life, perhaps even crippled inwardly.

He has a thought and heads for the kitchen. Just as he exits, there is a KNOCKING at the front door…

He reemerges. Crossing and going to the door. He opens to find:

Emily. And, to one side, Abe. Abe is wearing a Muslim skullcap. And his wardrobe is muted. Unlike the vibrant colors of the first scene.
