Dusk.

The Tent.

DEE takes off her trainers, and undoes her school tie. She lays down on the grass and runs her hands and feet through it and looks up at the sky.

JAY enters.

JAY. Pssst! Psst!

Come on!

DEE. Where have you been?

Lights out.

Seven

Day.

BEE, TEE and GEE are outside the tent. DEE is visible sitting in it.

TEE. She’s not saying it’s a problem.

DEE. Well, evidently she is.

TEE. No she’s not.

GEE. She’s just saying that we have all gone through something huge and we should talk about it.

DEE. There’s nothing to talk about.

BEE. See!

TEE. You can’t stay out here.

BEE. She doesn’t care.

GEE. You’re freaking your mum out, and you’re freaking everybody out.

CHORUS. Stop!

What are you doing?

She’s not ready yet.

You can’t just stop the story.

I can.

You have to allow the story to unravel as it’s supposed to.

Allow her to join the dots the way she needs to.

Yes but…

Yes but nothing! Let her go back! Let her trace her own steps. It’s the only way she’ll move forward.

She’s drifting outside the realms of reality.

That’s up for discussion.

But her memories are all over the place.

That’s how memories work, there’s no order to our memories.

Let’s carry on.

Let her go through her own process.

Fine.

Fine.

Great.

Start them again.

It’s dusk.

We know that!

Start them again.

Erm…

Where were we?

You’re freaking everybody out?

Yeah!

GEE. You’re freaking everybody out.

DEE. Well, everybody doesn’t have to be around me, do they?

TEE. You have nothing to feel guilty about.

BEE. You really don’t.

GEE. There’s nothing you could have done.

TEE. Exactly.

GEE. Just come out.

TEE. Please?

DEE. No.
