EXT. SUNDAY MARKET - VEGETABLE STALL      DAY

NOT-A-MORNING-PERSON GIRL pays for baby bok choys over a stand displaying CHINESE CABBAGES and WINTER MELONS.

CUTE CHINESE CHAP wraps up her two bunches of baby bok choy, hoodie pulled up over his head, jacket zipped up to his chin.

CUTE CHINESE CHAP
Hi! Good to see you again!

NOT-A-MORNING-PERSON GIRL (V.O.)
How can anybody be this cheerful on such a fucking cold morning before 10 o'clock?


Not-a-morning-person Girl huddles deeper down into turtleneck and polar fleece jacket, and tries to smile, but finds facial muscles frozen.

NOT-A-MORNING-PERSON GIRL
Brr.

CUTE CHINESE CHAP
Why look so worried on such a beautiful morning?


Not-a-morning-person Girl glances up at the cloudy, sunless, and gray sky.

NOT-A-MORNING-PERSON GIRL (V.O.)
Argh, not again ... And what the fuck? Do I look worried?

NOT-A-MORNING-PERSON GIRL
...


FIVE MINUTES LATER at the TOFU STALL:

AILEEN
Not bad.

NOT-A-MORNING-PERSON GIRL
Huh? He called it a beautiful day! Look at the fucking sky!

AILEEN
Maybe his day became beautiful when he saw you. Maybe he was trying to impress you.

NOT-A-MORNING-PERSON GIRL
...


Not-a-morning-person Girl looks for a wall to bang her head against.

FADE OUT:



THE END.
(Maybe.)
