Monologue Mania Day # 155     by Janet S. Tiger  A Walk in the Park  July 17, 2014                           

        A Walk in the Park                              
A monologue by Janet S. Tiger   © all rights reserved                                                      [email protected]        

             (A woman comes onstage.  She is beautifully dressed, and has a perfect manicure, perfect expensive purse.  She is walking confidently, then sees someone and is startled, but recovers quickly.)

Oh, hello!  How are you?  I didn't know you walked in this park.  It is lovely, isn't it?

           (Listens, nods)

Oh, no, what happened between you and my son is between you and my son!  After all, the fact that you had an affair with his best friend since kindergarten, well, that just showed maybe he had a need for a different best friend!

          (Tilts her head, puzzled)

Of course, you actually having sex with Todd at the engagement party, that was a little different, but having a threesome with Todd's sister?  Now that was the material of People magazine stories!  I'm still looking for an article!

         (Starts to walk, following the person)

And please don't worry, my son is completely over his depression!  After the suicide attempt, he received some excellent medical care!  And because he cut his wrists in the bathtub, there were no permanent stains!  It was a win-win situation!

        (Starts to walk faster, then even jog)

And isn't is amazing how things work out for the best?  I mean, the abortion, and all......those DNA tests are so expensive!   Oh, don't go, I want to hear all about your life, too!

        (She stops, almost offstage, looks back.)

And I didn't even have time to properly thank her!   

         (She opens her purse, removes a large knife and smiles.)

Well, maybe next time!

        (She exits.  Maybe the end of the ex-fiancee...)
