Act 3. Harry: There's a conversation we have to finish. Susan: What was it about? Harry: It was about caring. Susan: Oh? Harry: Yes, caring. I said that it makes me feel good that you care about Michelle. Susan: Well, I do care about Michelle. Harry: And it makes me feel good that you care about me. Susan: You know I do. You're a...wonderful friend. Harry: And it makes me feel good that you care about us. Susan: Well...well, I do, Harry. It's only natural that if I care about Michelle and I care about you, then I care about us. Harry: It's OK, Susan. We had this part of the conversation before Michelle and her friends arrived. Now comes the good part. Susan: Like what? Harry: Well, assume that if you care about Michelle and you care about me and you care abut us, that we can talk about us. I mean-you and me. Isn't that right? Susan: What are you trying to say, Harry? Harry: What I'm trying to say...since this is so easy ...Here are ten letters that express my feelings for you. Susan: Don't be silly, Harry. Harry: You want a hint? It's two words. Susan: You're making the game harder. Harry: Can't you figure it out? Seven letters... two words...that express the feeling that I feel for you in my heart. Susan: Harry, I get it! Harry: Well? Does that mean you'll marry me? Susan: Is that a proposal, or are we just playing a game? Harry: Sit down, Susan. There's something I have to ask you. Susan, will you marry me? Susan: It's such an important decision .There's so many things to talk about. There are three things that have to be done first, Harry. Harry: Three things? Susan: First, we have to decide where to live. Harry: Well, that's easy. We talked about that earlier. We'll live in New York. Susan: All right. Second, we have to talk to Michelle together about being married. Harry: We'll do that immediately. What' the third thing? Susan: You have to ask for my father's permission. Harry: Absolutely! But first things first. We have to go pick up Michelle. Susan: Oh, I'm so happy, Harry! Harry: Not as happy as I am. |
