E-writing Assignment 2.2

Create and briefly describe a scenario of your own (involving 2-4 characters) and then write a matching dialogue to go with it. As with the task above, try to bring your scenario to some sort of close in the actual dialogue. Target length (including scenario description): 350-750 words.

Man 1 bumps into Man 2, and accidentally makes Man 2 drop his box of chocolates. They start talking, and find out they are both going to the same woman, or are they?

Man 1: Sorry for bumping in to, man. I’m just a little stressed. I can replace it? Here, I have ten dollars in my wallet, you can have it.

Man 2: Thanks. Too bad ten dollars won’t buy me back that box of chocolates right away. My girlfriend called me and said I had to come over, right away. She sounded kinda down, so I bought her that box of chocolates just to give her something nice.

Man 1: Well this is ironic. I’m stressed out because of the exact same thing.

Man 2: Yeah, that is ironic. Wouldn’t it be creepy if we were going to the same girl?

Man 1: Yeah. Which stop is yours?

Man 2: Central Park North.

Man 1: No way. That’s my stop.

Man 2: No way.

Man 1: Yes, that’s my stop.

Man 2: You don’t think we’re going to the same girl do you?

Man 1: I don’t know, man. What’s you girlfriend’s name?

Man 2: Lindsey. She lives on 110th.

Man 1: Not West, right?

Man 2: Would you believe me if i said no?

Man 1: Probably not… What floor?

Man 2: Third.

Man 1: Does she live with a roommate?

Man 2: Yup. She has a roommate. The roommate’s name is… Lindsey… HahaHAHA. Could you believe that? How the hell could we forget about that?

Man 1: When you say it… yeah, they’re both named Lindsey. Can’t believe I forgot about that. I think you scared me so much I forgot. Isn’t it pretty dumb though? Being roommate with a girl with the same name as herself. They pretty much asked for this to happen.

Man 2: Hah, yeah. It could’ve gone really bad though. The scene I would have caused would have to be kept in check by cops.

Man 1: Same here. I may be pretty calm, but I hate it when people back stab you like that.

Man 2: Yeah, I had a friend that did that to his girlfriend once. He had to come clean.

Man 1: How come?

Man 2: I punched his his front teeth out. Told him that I would punch them all out if he didn’t come clean.

Man 1: Whoa dude. Who was the girl?

Man 2: My little sister.

Man 1 : Oh. Ok then, mental note to self: Don’t cheat on someone that has a big brother.

Man 2: Good idea. So if I’m not completely wrong, your Lindsey is from Minnesota, right?

Man 1: No, my Lindsey is from Ohio…

Man 1 and Man 2 looks at each other with a look of dread. Man 1 gets up from his seat, and sits down at the other end of the subway wagon.
