"Yes!" "Absolutely!" "Spiral bind, 150 pages, I know exactly the jobs... you're referring to." "The color of the bond..." "I have that information right in front of me the color is..." " I can't read my own writing." " Saffron." "Saffron." "One of the great colors." "So, yes." "No problem." "You, too." "Goodbye!" " You just saved my life." " Yes, right." "So, how did you remember saffron?" "Because." "You're eating rice." "Never mind." "Anyway, wish me luck." "I'll need it." "I'm about to meet with Michael Rosenfeld." "Don't be silly you're so defeatist." "Patty, Allegheny Systems can go with any printer in town." "Graham, you can land this account, I can feel it." "I'm glad one of us does." "Stop." "What did I come in here for?" "The estimates to bring with you." "Where are they?" "I hate it when you get negative like this before a meeting." "Hello?" "Wood and Jones printing." "What?" " No talking!" "Eyes on your own paper!" " Wait a minute. ." " Angela!" "Sit down!" " That's my father!" "I'm going to take you right there, okay?" "I'll be right back." " Sharon's dad had a heart attack." " Oh, God." "I'm going to take her straight to the hospital." "You know what you might do that might help?" "Angela?" "What?" "If you went straight to Sharon's after school." "Your mom might appreciate that, she's going to be there." "You know where they keep their spare key?" "Under the planter." "Okay, I got to go." "We should go now, okay?" "I did their dishes." "I'm just going to grab Camille a sweater and some stuff... she may have to spend the night there." "When I was little I practically lived at Sharon's house and..." "Sharon's room was like our world." "Spelled your name wrong." " Can I have some?" " You'll get my germs." "I don't care." "I want my tonsils out, too." " No." " Why not?" " Because it hurts." " Squeeze my hand as hard as it hurts." "Why?" "So I know how much it hurts!" "Angela!" "Listen, I think I'd better go on to the hospital without you..." "I need you at home with Danielle." "Sure, whatever you want." "So dad's at the hospital with Sharon?" "Yes." "Don't worry, I'll send her your love." "Okay, thank you." "What?" "Nothing!" "They just keep saying the same thing." " I'm going to try Kyle again." " Okay, honey." " The boyfriend." " Good." "I mean, that she has someone." "Is there anything else I can do?" "I'm thinking these slow kind of under water thoughts..." "It's like I've got to call his sister." "She always has this really..." "It just hasn't hit me yet." "I'm sorry, what?" "Are you hungry?" "Would you like something to eat?" "Heart disease, does it run in Andy's family?" "No." "Nothing like that." "It's weird isn't it?" "Seeing him lying there on television?" "I didn't even know they did that." "Honey, your hand is shaking!" "Why do I feel so normal?" "Just hasn't hit me yet." "I just have to make one phone call." " Camille!" " Honey, it's okay." "Why am I crying?" "He's going to be fine." "What did they say?" "Is there any news?" "Where's Graham?" "Phone call." "No, there's no news, I mean, they just, I don't know... they tried to run a test or something but he's too unstable... whatever that means." "Honey, it's okay, really." "They gave him some Zanex." "Now we just need to give you some." "Here's your stuff." "I put some magazines in there and..." "I didn't know which toothbrush so I brought both." "I'm just going to put these somewhere I'll be right back." "I was calling Allegheny Systems to reschedule." "Right." "Oh, God, Graham." " He's exactly my age." " I know." " We're eight months apart." " I know." "It's terrifying, it just can't be happening." "People our age don't have heart attacks." "I know." "It's a nightmare." "Did you call Rosenfeld for another appointment?" "Andy Cherski!" "My God, Andy Cherski!" "I've never seen Andy Cherski sneeze!" "He's healthy!" "He's always telling me to quit eating butter." "Yes, I'm seeing Rosenfeld tomorrow." "Sweetheart!" "Are you okay?" "I guess, except that my boyfriend is like, missing." "He's going to be fine, your dad." "Angela sends her love by the way." "Okay." " Camille, how can we help?" " I don't know." " Let us take Sharon home with us." " What?" "It's not a bad idea, if you're mom is going to stay here." " Can I talk to you for a second?" " Sure, honey, what?" "I can stay at home by myself." "Why don't you let them take you home?" "They're just trying to help." "Okay?" "I'm going to be fine here, you know?" "I really am." "You know that right?" " Are you okay?" " No..." "Yes, I'm fine." "Okay." "All right, sweetie." "Great!" "So, I'll telephone you later, okay?" "I should stay here because Camille needs me." "Right." " Ready?" " Yes." " Is Sharon's dad going to die?" " How would I know?" "How old is he?" "The same age as dad, they're all like the same age." " If dad dies..." " Danielle!" "Mom says it's nothing." "She talks to me like I'm five." "Mom talks to everyone like that." " If dad did die, who'd give me away?" " What?" " Who'd give me away at my wedding?" " You're so weird." "Why?" "Because who's going to marry you?" " Hi!" " Daddy you're home!" " Hi." " Hi." " Has anyone eaten?" " I'm not hungry." " And me neither." " Me neither." "I felt like a really shallow person,  because I was hungry." "I better put these away." "I guess I'll go to bed." "I mean, I feel really tired." "I wanted to hug Sharon and tell her things like...  how awful I felt but, It was like I didn't have the right...  because we weren't friends anymore." "You can have the bed I'll sleep on this." " No, I can sleep on the floor." " No!" "Take the bed you're the guest." "Hold on." "I'll get you a better pillow." "This pillow is better." "The other one my baby cousin once peed on it so..." "Sharon?" "How's Andy?" "Any change?" "He has those extra heartbeats, and they still don't know why... if he's going to need that..." "the operation with the little balloon." "Angioplasty." " But he's going to pull through, right?" " They don't know." "What kind of cereal was that you bought..." " And why did you buy buttermilk?" " I bought buttermilk?" "I got those estimates downstairs." "Don't forget to take them to your meeting with Rosenfeld." "Help!" "This buttermilk is stuck in my throat!" "Angela." "I know that you and Sharon haven't been on the best terms, but..." "I just really want you to make an effort..." "Mom, I'm not a child." "I understand." "Look at her." "Poor kid." "I'll drive her to school later." "You better get a move on though." " Honey." "How are you feeling?" " Okay." "Look." "We saved you a muffin." " Right?" " Yes." " Look." "I said I was sorry." " I left five messages for you." "Five!" "I mean, my father is in the..." "I mean..." " I need you." " Right." "So..." "I've got to create a circuit for shop." " So, I'll call you later." "Okay?" " Kyle." "Look, I didn't hear anything just now." "Okay?" "So..." "I mean, I heard you were having a conversation... so I just basically tuned it out." "I'm able to do that, like not hear things, so..." "Comparing instruments?" "She is such an idiot." "You wouldn't believe some of the things that girl has said to me." "That was so stupid of me." "Crying." "No, that's okay." "I mean..." "Well, see you later." "See you on the bus." " You're taking my bus?" " Yes, because I'm staying at Angela's." "What?" "I heard about your dad." "Tough break." "So, a girl in distress hurls herself on a guy with no life." "It's probably just a figure of speech, "See you on the bus"." "She probably didn't mean she would actually see me." "She just means... yes, we'll be on the same bus." "But not like together." "Right?" "So you are staying at Angela's house?" " Yes." "What do you care?" " I don't." "So is her dad cooking you all kinds of good food or something?" "What about Kyle?" "I mean, they've been umbilically attached for a month." "Kyle was probably her popular-jock phase." "Now she's moving into her awkward but sensitive guy phase." " Are you saying I'm someone's phase?" " I wish I was." " Lucky you." "Living with the Chase's." " Yes." "Whoopty-do." "If you guys are friends again, you don't have to conceal it." "I can take it." "You see that nurse right there?" "She blames me." "She thinks that I brought the heart attack on... by my sexual demands." "No, actually, my sexual commands." "What is it?" "Good news?" "What makes you think that?" "Actually, Andy is pretty much the same?" "But I thought that you..." "I was on my way to Allegheny Systems when I realized..." " I forgot the estimates." " Here." "I can't believe I did this." "Anyway..." "Wait, here, here!" " Graham!" "This is beautiful!" " It's a lemon-hazelnut tort." " Thank you!" " When did you?" "I couldn't sleep, I was up waiting for you." "Oh, my God, Patty." " You waited up for me?" " Only until three." "I guess I'm going to be late for this meeting." "I better phone him." "Your husband is an artist." "Oh, God, I can't bear it." "He's just sabotaging himself." "He's sabotaging this account that would mean so much to us and..." "I can't even say anything..." "Oh God, Patty." "What would I do?" "I mean, how would I survive?" "Camille, Camille, it's okay, honey, you're going to be okay." "No, you don't understand, I need him." "I'm not like you." "Wait, wait, what am I like?" "I didn't mean that, I just mean I need him, I really need Andy to live." "This is incredible." "Right." "I'm sorry that..." "Hi." "We can go downstairs." "No, It's fine." "I was just..." " I should probably go." " No." "No, don't go." " So, your room is..." " A mess." "Different from the last time I saw it." "Okay, well, I'm going." "I'm on hold." "Rosenfeld, I got to call him back." "Good morning." "How long have you been up?" "A while." "You can have the first shower if you want." "That's okay, you go ahead." "There's nothing edible in here." "Don't be ridiculous, sweetie." "That things crammed full of stuff." "Let me look." "There's nothing edible in here." "So, do you want..." "Where's Angela?" "She left early." "She must of had her reasons, or whatever." "Well, do you want me to bring you to the hospital..." " Or do you just want to go to school?" " Well, I..." "It's whatever you want, sweetie." "Your mom says that it's up to you." "I guess..." "I guess school." "You rescheduled with Rosenfeld, right?" "And you've got the estimates?" "Right?" "I got them." "Yes." "Hey?" "Who's in there, what happened?" "Nothing happened." "I'm fine." " Stop looking at me." " Stop looking at me." "What are you doing here anyway?" " You are playing this all wrong." " What are you talking about?" "Please." "Your dad's seriously sick, right?" "You shouldn't even be here." "People are feeling sorry for you, right?" " Use it." "Take advantage." " You're saying..." "I'm saying, you have a personal tragedy with a loved one." "You shouldn't be stuck in some stall balling." "And isn't there someplace else you'd rather be?" " With my mom, but..." " But what?" "Where's she at?" "At the hospital with him." "But it's... it's kind of upsetting there." " You should be there." " I know, but..." "Angelica." "Oh, my God." "We have to go with Sharon to the hospital." "I'll get Tino to drive us." "He loves hospitals." "And Ricky will come, too." "The four of us." "Right?" "Come on." "I have really been cutting Bio a lot." "So, I should probably skip the hospital." "So I'll see you later." "Hey." "Is this where you come to smoke?" "I'm always doing that." "I'm always asking questions I already know the answers to." " So, are you crying or something?" " I guess." " How come?" " Because I'm lonely." "Because I have no friends." "Because I'm a terrible, terrible person." "Because of my friends father is in the hospital." "And he could die." "That's rough." "I better go." " Is Sharon here?" " Yes, and so is dad." "But he's upstairs lying down, he said not to disturb him." "He said we should send out for some pizza, right?" "But of course he didn't give me any money, he's trying to starve us." "Danielle!" "He's just upset, you know, about Mr. Cherski and everything." " Go get your money box." " No way!" "Just lay it out, dad will pay you back later." " You lay it out." " I don't have any money!" "Is there anything to eat?" "We're sending out for pizza." "So, how's your dad doing?" " How much money do you have?" " None." "I'm seriously hungry." "Hi, is Sharon still here?" "Oh, good." "I mean, hi." " I don't believe this." " Believe it." " Hey, let Brian pay!" " I don't mind." " Pay for what?" " Yes, why not?" "I mean, maybe he doesn't mind paying for it." "We were going to send for pizza." "I mean, good." "I do have plenty of cash on me, it's no problem." " What's no problem?" " We were going to send for pizza!" "Thank goodness." "I'm famished." "I forgot to have lunch today." "Make sure you get double cheese." "And get some of those little tomatoes daddy likes." " Daddy can't be disturbed!" " What?" "!" "He's lying down upstairs." "Here, get a large." "Graham, what happened?" "Is it Andy?" "Nothing happened." "Do you feel all right?" "Are you coming down..." "I just want to lie here." "How was your meeting with Rosenfeld?" "It went okay." "Did you feel like you made all your points?" "Look." "I want to tell you, and I will tell you how the meeting went... but I really just can't talk about it, now!" "Okay?" "You know it's okay." "We'll live." "You know I mean... we don't have to have this account, I mean the important thing is..." "I'm really sorry." "I have to get out of here." " What?" " I can't breathe." "Graham!" "If you didn't land this account, that's okay." "Please!" "Just let it be, okay?" " I can't..." " You can't what?" "What is wrong?" " Where are you going?" " I'm sorry!" "I have to get out of this house." "They say it'll be here in twenty minutes." "Great." "Hello?" "Yeah." "Hold on a second." "It's for you." "Hello?" "Kyle!" "Thank God it's you!" "I'm sort of not really that hungry now that I think about it." "Okay, great!" "Yes, I'll be ready." "Okay, bye!" " Nice." " What?" "You just made a date with Kyle?" "Yes, not that it's any of your business." "I don't believe you!" "What about Brian?" "Angela!" "Kyle is my boyfriend, I hate to tell you." "Brian Krakow happens to be waiting in my living room... and I don't know what you're doing with him!" "Nothing!" "Nothing!" "We're just friends." "Yes, when Kyle's not around, you've been using him." "You are lecturing me about using Brian Krakow... when he is so obviously in love with you and you totally use him!" " Brian Krakow is not in love with me!" " That's not what Rayanne Graff says." "You know what?" "Just don't even speak to me, okay?" "I can't believe you can't even be nice to me at a time like this!" "Why do you even need me to be nice to you... since everybody else in the world is?" "Graham." "Is that you?" "They said the pizza will be here in twenty minutes." "I'm not hungry." "Graham?" "No, it's me." "I'm just calling to thank you." "Thank me?" "For what?" "For sending Graham over here." "I don't know how you knew... but he is exactly who I needed." "Good." "How is it going?" "How is Andy?" "We don't..." "We're still waiting to hear if the angioplasty worked." "By the way, I hope you understand about Sharon." "Sharon?" "You know, she just really felt like she needed to spend the night..." " In her own bed, you know?" " Sure, of course." "Patty, you're the greatest friend." " Go back to sleep." " Okay." "Here." "Now, you prefer your coffee at least two days old, right?" "I insist upon it." "You've been amazing through all this." "No, I just don't think it has hit me yet." "So Andy, was he working really hard or something?" "I mean, why do you think..." "Why do I think he had a heart attack at 40?" "Sweetie, I don't know." "But he does work too hard." "Actually, his new boss is always telling him, go easier on yourself." "The lumber business is very unpredictable." "I kept telling him he should take some time off." "But do you know the truth of it is?" "He loves it." "He loves his work." " It's his life." " It must be great to feel that way." "Mrs. Cherski." "Good news." "The angioplasty was a complete success." "Oh, God." "There was a small blockage that we were able to clear." "That's what caused the arrhythmia." "I've prescribed a few medications... he'll need to take, but he's going to be just fine." "I think it finally hit me." "Thank you." " Andy is going to be okay." " Thank God." "I landed the account." "I don't understand." "When they told me, I don't know, it was like a... this moment because I had to admit that I didn't want to land it." "Because landing it means that I'm really doing this." "This is my job, this is my life, this is it!" "This is what I really..." "But, look I'm sorry that I couldn't..." " You know, handle it or whatever." " It's okay." "But look, I landed it right?" "That's all that matters." "I don't think so." " I don't think that's all that matters." " Say what you mean." "I'm proud of you." "I'm glad you landed the account..." " And you're fired." " What?" "You're fired because I love you... because I don't want to lose you." "No, no, Patty, it's okay, I can fix my responsibilities." "I know, but you're not happy, you're not." "You're..." "Something has to change." " What will we do?" "I mean..." " I don't know." " What will I do?" "I don't even..." " I don't know what you're going to do." "I guess you're finally going to figure it out." " You know that girl, Angela Chase?" " That redheaded girl?" "Yes." "Some redhead." "It's out of a bottle." " Anyway." "Is she avoiding us?" " I think she is." "I think we make her physically ill or something." "I thinks so because..." "Angela." "Hi." "Very funny." "So I guess you've heard." "Sharon's dad is okay." "That's great." "No, I hadn't heard." "I'm obviously the last person in Pittsburgh to hear." " So you're friends with Sharon now?" " Well, so, you are, right?" "Look." "We all know what's going on around here, okay?" " Which is that you are jealous." " What?" "And you." "You are totally flipped because..." "Rayanne finally did something nice for once in her life." "Which she did by taking Sharon to go visit her dad." "And now both of you just want to be sure that you both still are friends." "Which you are." "So shut up!" "Let's kill him." "Say a prayer, Vasquez." "I'm going to kill him." " I've been knocking, but..." " What?" "Your mom let me in." "I came to drop off your bag." " What are you listening to?" " A group you probably hate." "Okay, I'll go." "I'm glad your dad is going to be okay." "My father almost died." "And you were the only person who didn't even seem to care." "People I barely knew were coming up to me all concerned... and you, you acted like you barely even knew me." "I know, I know I acted like that." "I just didn't know what else to do." "I knew I was the last person on earth you wanted to deal with." "You were the only person I wanted to deal with." "I wanted to talk to you, too, it just seemed like... you wanted help from everyone but me!" " I was really scared." " I was, too." "I know we have different friends now..." " But sometimes I miss you so much!" " Me, too." "It really hurts." "Squeeze my hand as hard as it hurts." "You're in my light." "So Sharon's dad is going to be okay." "I heard." "Your friend Rickie told me." "I was just over there, at Sharon's, I ended staying a pretty long time." "Is there some reason you think I should care about this?" "I don't know." "You two are friends." "I guess." "I mean we're not, like, really friends." "But you've been hanging out with her, right?" "Look." "It was just... she needed me, I mean, not me, but somebody, anybody." "And I just happened to be there, and we just, so, we just hung out... or whatever, I mean, it could have been anyone." "No, that's not true, it doesn't work with just anyone..." "I mean, some people..." "I think she needed you." "Why?" "Because of certain ways that you are." "What, did you give this thought or something?" "Brian!" "Go inflate your tire." "There's so many different ways to be connected to people." "There are the people you feel this unspoken connection to...  even though there's not even a word for It." "There's the people who you've known forever...  who know you In thls way that other people can't...  because they've seen you change...  they've let you change."
