James: Hey Cor, nice shoes

Coral: Thanks

Coral: Well, I would love too, but I already have someone else

James: What the heck? Who?

Coral: Walter asked me just yesterday

James: Hahaha! You are going with that nerd? Are you stupid?

Coral: Well, we all do crazy things for love

James: You love him? What the hell? Have you lost your mind? You’re going to the dance with me

Walter: JAMES, what are you doing?

James: So, you’re taking my girl to the dance?

Coral: I am not your girl, jerk

Walter: Let go of the lady idiot!

James: So that’s how you want it?

Coral: Are you alright?

Walter: At least you weren’t hurt

Coral: Oh no! You have bruises

Walter: I’m alright

Coral: I am so concerned for you

Walter: I’m alrigh … Wait a minute, you like me, don’t you?

Coral: Well, (turns back while Walter stands) I am just concerned. Can a friend just be concerned for another friend?
