Rere Shapiro 28: I am his campaign manager

I am his campaign manager

EXT. SOMEWHERE INSIDE ASO ROCK- MORNING
(Rere is seen walking and then suddenly stops as she sees Alex walks out of a corner)

Rere: Alex

Alex: what are you doing here?

Rere: I am working

Alex: I know you are working, am asking why are you with my father?

Rere: I am his campaign manager

Alex: (surprised) campaign what?

Rere: I am handling his election

Alex: why are you handling my father’s election?

Rere: because it is a good job with a good pay and why am I even answering you? (Becoming angry)

Alex: Rere

Rere: you don’t own me so I don’t have to answer you (starts to walk away but he stopped her by holding her hand)

Alex: I am sorry if I sounded that way. It is just that the last time we saw each other, we had a big fight and my father was the cause. That is why I am like this, I am sorry if I made you angry

Rere: it is fine

Alex: as much as I hate my father and the fact that you work for him, I can’t help but be glad because he bought you back to me (looking at her with a caring look as he speaks with a soft voice) did you miss me Rere? (Rere moves uncomfortably) because I miss you a lot

Rere: (removing her hands from his hold) we broke up Alex

Alex: (takes her hands again) no you broke up, I didn’t

Rere: like it makes a difference

Alex: of course it does, it means I am not willing to let you go

Rere: Alex, you don….

Alex: (cut in sharply) have dinner with me tonight

Rere: Alex…

Alex: I will cook

Rere: okay but I am only agreeing because I need your help with something

Alex: that is fine with me. I will text you the address. Eight o’ clock sharp

Rere: I will see you then (she leaves)
