Scene 1:
At Rise: JIRI is standing alone in the middle of the stage, with the curtains closed. School scene should be set up in the background. When she sits down the curtains open. 994Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMaiQ7qAXDE
JIRI
Jiri’s monologue part 1. Hiya, my is Jiri and I’m eleven years old. Sometimes I’m extremely happy, but other times I’m super sad, and I don’t really know why… It’s just how I am. I go to elementary school, even though I really don’t want to. 994Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbDsgp6toyV
I have a big brother, Ajwaku. He is the one that takes care of me. He’s always been super weird. He was born with purple eyes.
(She points to her eyes.)
And the like flippy part of his hair is like white, but the rest of it is like black.
(She tries to explain using hand motions.)
He could have dyed it over I guess, but he told me that if he dyed his hair he wouldn’t feel like himself anymore. I like that theory, so I accept it. 994Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNJR0aVuiqp
Oh! I forgot to say how or parents are like NEVER HOME! They’re always on business trips, well I guess they’re not “business trips” because they travel around the world and stuff. When they come home they are super nice to me, but I don’t think they like AJ, my brother, very much. I don’t know why people don’t like him, so DON’T BE MEAN TO MY BROTHER!994Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡttVuXhy8WK
He’s had like one friends his whole life and that’s it. Until, his sophomore year in high school. Then he got this friend named Raine Kuro, and she’s the only person who might be weirder than he is. I DON’T LIKE HER! But, hey, that’s where my big brother’s story really starts, on the day they really met for the first time.
(She sits down on the edge of the stage.)994Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa1YEtWLrhW
RAINE
(RAINE enters on the staircase of her school. She is going up them. Near the middle she slips back.)994Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsbq8BBTLjA
AJWAKU
(He enters from the side of the hallway. He notices RAINE falling down the stairs.)
Oh crap!
(He runs and manages to stop her fall, but he falls too. He stands up before she does, and holds his hand out for her.)994Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjIsD9S7pS4
RAINE
(She doesn’t take his hand. She stands up on her own.)994Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsZwiSS3bka
AJWAKU
(He scratches his head.)
Not so good at flying are you?994Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1OawTtGPcR
RAINE
(She laughs awkwardly.)
No, definitely not my strong suit. 994Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsEBHeU4Hqi
JIRI
(She throws her hands up.)
Oh! I forgot to mention that Raine is blind! Oops… So when she fell she probably wasn’t just being stupid. What I don’t get is that she never carries a walking stick or anything, like isn’t that what you're supposed you’re blind?
(She looks backwards.)
Oh, um… okay, back to the story… 994Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZphPO8iRP6
AJWAKU
That’s okay, I’m Ajwaku. 994Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8LNhl7pm1S
RAINE
Thanks for helping me… Kinda… Stairs are always a pain. 994Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7kk6fWKEVH
AJWAKU
I… Uh… Your name is… 994Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVSPEh3FXN7
RAINE
(She giggles.)
It’s Raine.
AJWAKU
Oh-994Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPY05KuhkwF
KABESE
(She cuts him off as she enters running and stomping.)
DON’T TOUCH HER!!!
(She punches him.)994Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfHxiRR6paC
AJWAKU
(He holds his cheek.)
Ouchie. 994Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4gawecRWCA
KABESE
Tssk. 994Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmQ5w9Z5KX1
JIRI
(She points.)
That’s Kabese. If anyone in the whole wide world were to know Raine Kuro, it would probably be Kabese.
(She jumps up.)
She’s rude and tough! And was way too dense to notice any sort of social barrier between the blind teenager and herself. Under her angry exterior, she actually did care a lot about Raine. 994Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFKZrKLnboX
KABESE
God, what do you think you’re doing, bonehead?!994Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpKkxmKK8Rh
AJWAKU
I-I-I-994Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd9OKLxnzzF

(He enters with his hands in his pockets.)
Wow AJ, why do all the hot girls hit on you- literally?
(He laughs at his own joke.)994Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGRhNbMbRjM
KABESE
I’d be happy to accommodate you too. 994Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ93opfw21K3
SUNAKU
(He winks.)
Anytime. 994Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlZNjFGTwn0
KABESE
Gross! Let’s get out of here Raine!
(She takes RAINE’S arm and helps her up the first few stairs.) 994Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgpP1PozqTO
AJWAKU
(He stares down at his feet and mumbles.)
I could have helped her, you know? 994Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzD1EHv3d6Y
KABESE
(She turns.)
Well, too bad you’ll never get the chance, lover boy!994Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd29M6rPAEh
SUNAKU
(He rushes up the stairs to RAINE’S side.)
So, what class are you girls in anyways? First day of school and all, right? I’m in 2C.994Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIf8agMn8mn
KABESE
WHAT?! That’s what I’m in! Geez, you’re gonna be there. Now I really never wanna go to class!
(She lets go of RAINE, whom she had been dragging.)994Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi2bRwDdKvd
RAINE
(She screams.)994Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5KYSjSf2Zq
AJWAKU
(He stops her before she falls.)994Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ZHeOUc3jC
RAINE
Ugh… thanks again Ajwaku. I’m actually the worst. 994Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡezB9OQh0X1
AJWAKU
(He blushes.)
T-T-That’s okay.
RAINE

KABESE
OH NO! I do not like these guys! I forbid it! Now come on! We’re going to class. Leave us alone, or you’ll wake up underwater and in half like the Titanic.
(She takes RAINE again, and they go up the stairs.)994Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjZoNE8Co9g

(She waves in no particular direction.)
Byee!
