JAMIE<br />
Jacob, you saying that, makes my day. I’ve dreaming the day you saying<br />
you care about me.<br />
JACOB<br />
Really? Jamie, I’m sorry that I’ve been missing out. I didn’t know it<br />
would hurt you that bad. I thought you were fine.<br />
JAMIE<br />
I wasn’t, and no one can go back into time. But at least now, you<br />
know.<br />
JACOB looks glad, yet worried<br />
JACOB<br />
Promise, you’ll stop cutting or even trying to hurt yourself?<br />
Jamie starts tearing up, but tries to laugh away the tears<br />
I I don’t know, I thin…<br />
JAMIE<br />
JACOB interrupts JAMIE<br />
JACOB<br />
WHAT? You don’t know, after all that? After I said I care for you?<br />
JAMIE looks at floor and looks sad.<br />
But trying not to show it<br />
JAMIE<br />
I’ll try, for you. But you don’t know what it feels like, you know if<br />
you left a drinker inside a room full of beer, he’d be glad to drink<br />
it, but he would try not to.<br />
JACOB looks at JAMIE with anger, but<br />
at the same time he is worried<br />
JACOB<br />
Oh. Jamie, I will be there for you, every single step. Until you stop.<br />
But Jamie, you have to understand, that no one would want that for<br />
you. NO ONE.<br />
