Mother and son.
Vanesa:Son
Reika:Mother
Son: Mom, I had talked to the landlord. He didn’t want to rent us the house anymore.
Mom: Why? Did I do something wrong?
S: I don’t really know. He just wants me to find another place for you. (Tell Mom
what might be the landlord’s concern in a mild way)
M: (How would mom respond?)
M: So, Can I live with you?
S: Hm, not really. I should ask my wife (Her name? also tell your audience why
Shawn thinks it is necessary to know her opinions? What are Shawn’s concerns?)
M: (The mother can tell the audience what she thinks about her son’s concerns)
S:
Besides, we don’t have enough room for you. Probably we will have to send you
to a nursing home.
M: Oh, how can you do this to me? I’m your mother. I bring you up really hard.
S: Mom, I don’t want to do that, either. But I have my wife and (two? Or Three?) new
born babies to support; I simply don’t have money and time to take care of you.
M: That is an excuse. If you really want to take care of me, you won’t do leave me
alone.
S: Mom, I fail to do what I wish to do for you because there are too many problems to
overcome.
M: Oh, I love you so much. Since your father died, I only have you. You are my
whole world.
S: All right! All right! Mom. Don’t pick it up again. I promise I’ll solve these
problems.
M: Okay. Tell me, what would you do?
S: I will find the other house for you to live in.
M: That’s all? You should promise that I won’t be driven away again.
S: I won’t let you live outside for a long time. After my children grow up, you can
come back to live with us.
M: All right. If you have made a decision, all I can do is to accept it.
S: Thank you, mom. I love you.
M: My dear son. I love you too.
在紅色的部份加一些東西進去讓對話更豐富一些。例如房東、兒子、媳婦各有不
同的考量，這樣就可以創造出更多空間，讓媽媽這個角色有更多回應的空間或說
出她對這些意見的看法。
