JANE
Good morning..?
JASON
Jason...the name is Jason.
JANE
I'm Jane and this is my friend Mimie.
JASON
Nice meeting you Jane, Mimie.
JANE
Nice meeting you too.
MIMIE
Jane when you are done purchasing the stuff, meet me at home.
JANE
You are being rude Mimie.
MIMIE
How am I being rude? It is by force to talk or exchange pleasantries with someone I do not know?
JANE
Come on he is just being nice.
MIMIE
God knows i didn't ask him to be nice. See Jane you can entertain him for all I care but please do not force me to do same okay....thank you and see you at home. (EXIT Mimie)
JANE
Um....Jason I'm so sorry for my friends rude behaviour. she is actually not that kind of a person just that lately she is going through some difficult moments.
JASON
It's fine Jane I understand. Do not worry, I won't take it to heart.
JANE
Then that will be wonderful thank you.
JASON
You are welcome. Are you done with your purchase?
JANE
Yes. Why?
JASON
let me see you off
JANE
Oh that's so nice of you.
JASON
So do you guys live around here?
JANE
Yes we live in this neighbourhood
JASON
Then how come I'm just seeing you for the first time? As for Mimie, this is the second time but not in my wildest dream did I ever think she lives here.
JANE
(chuckles) That's probably because our jobs are the type that we have to leave early and return late and another thing is because we do not really hang out in the neighbourhood or hangout in general that much.
JASON
You girls live just the two of you?
JANE
No we are three. You got me, Mimie and Sharon.
JASON
Wao
JANE
Okay...Here we are. This is where we live.
JASON
You know..... I always pass by this area but I had no idea the occupants of this house are such pretty ladies (The statement got them laughing )
JANE
You are a sweet talker and quite a charmer too. Thanks for the company Jason.
JASON
No worries. Um....I will get going see you around Jane.
JANE
See you around Jason.

MIMIE
How dare you Carl, how dare you? Say what ever you want but do not ever i mean ever tag me as a slut,hooker or what ever you call do not cuz you got no clue of what I do since you never had the decency of asking
CARL
