break your heart

J1: But “I don’t love you” is the most poignant sentence you could ever hear in the English tongue… well, at least when one of the people involved actually do. Do you dare making something disjointed? Would you do it and say: ‘I don’t love you’?

J2: Maybe.

J1: Maybe’s not good enough of an answer. You know that, don’t you?

J2: I do.

J1: So? What are you gonna do? He’s doing this for a lost cause. He knows we’re engaged, right?

J2: Of course. He came to our party.

J1: And yet he sent you flowers on valentine’s day? Is he nuts?

J2: Probably. Or gutsy. Depends on how you see it.

J1: Get a straight jacket for the man. Throw him in an asylum somewhere.

J2: Jack.

J1: What, Jane?

J2: Jack be nimble, Jack be quick. I see jealousy can be quite a kick.

J1: Jane.

J2: What, Jack?

J1: Jane be careful, Jane be wise. Someone’s captured by your eyes.

J2: John?

J1: John.

J2: Stop, you’re too funny.

J1: The man sent you flowers. On Valentine’s Day. How many times should I repeat it? How am I not coliseum on this? Tell me Jane, did he ever send you anymore flowers? Bouquets I don’t see?

J2: Yes.

J1: Did you throw them out?

J2: They were beautiful.

J1: Did you throw them out?

J2: No.

J1: Jane?

J2: Jack.

J1: They were beautiful? That’s your excuse? How many times before?

J2: Several.

J1: How many?

J2: Several.

J1: How many? Every birthday? Every Labor Day? Every month?

J2: Every day.

J1: Well, I’d say that’s more than several.

J2: It IS more.

J1: Let me ask you again: did you throw them out?

J2: Jack. Don’t do this. I told you they were beautiful.

J1: No, I want to know. Did you throw them out?

J2: No. I didn’t throw them out. They were beautiful. You never send your flowers. You never give flowers to me.

J1: Give? Are you saying he gives them to you too? Not just sending them?

J2: Maybe.

J1: Jane!

J2: Jack…

J1: I don’t believe this. You’ve been seeing him behind my back.

J2: He’s been a friend in the past.

J1: Yes, with a hidden agenda.

J2: I don’t know what’s his agenda.

J1: Obviously taking you away.

J2: No, that’s not it.

J1: I thought you didn’t know about his agenda. Don’t be too sure.

J2: Jack.

J1: …

J2: Jack!

J1: What, Jane?

J2: I’m sorry. You’re right. I’ve been seeing him behind your back. and that’s wrong.

J1: It IS wrong.

J2: Forgive me?

J1: I have already. Besides, it’s John’s marbles I need to kick around, not yours. He should learn that you’re mine now. We’re engaged, you’re my fiancée. We’re about to be married in 2 months. I love you.

J2: …Jack.

J1: Hm?

J2: I don’t love you.
