LIN

I never thought I find love and have my own family because of a busy life until I met Hakeem.

*Hakeem the crown prince of Evergreen,tall,dark undercut mullet hair and striking brown eyes enchanting blend of his heritage. Well outlineed jawlines giving sense of strength and uniqueness.*

LIN

Everything happened faster...

*He approaches her,with a radiant smile spreading across his face.*

Hakeem

Hi,you must be Lin the pretty face of all the front pages of magazines and billboards. I am Hakeem.

*Reaches out his hand towards her,she holds his hand, shake hands his eyes unable to look away from her,her cheeks getting rosy.*

LIN

(Forces a smile) I thought is unprofessional to shake hands with a royal family.

Hakeem

It is...(a slight grin flickers across his lips.) For a beauty queen like you I would gladly break the rules for you.

LIN

{she blushes}

Jenny

Hakeem!!! (raises her voice sharply) What happened to no touching?"

Jenny

*Lin feels her heart pounds quickly against her chest, looking at the Queen, glaring at her with her son.*

Mother

*FEW HOURS AFTER THE MOVIE PREMIERE.*

(At the evergreen palace) while Hakeem leaning against the railing on the balcony adjusting to his room smoking cigar, lost in his thoughts, his mother walks in and quietly stands beside.)

(he takes a long drag of his cigar and blows a hazy smoke that breezes through the warm air.)

Jenny

I thought I told you to quit smoking isn't good for your health.

(He remains silent.)

Jenny

Hakeem! (she calls out at him with a sharp raised tone.)

Hakeem

What? (he abruptly turns his face to her, frown lines appearing on his forehead.)

Hakeem

When are you going to stop treating me like I am 10?mother.

Hakeem

Can you just let me grow up for once and do my things by myself? No royalty, no fame, no relative... just me.

Hakeem

You just called someone's daughter a hoe...mother.

(he raises his voice at her, pouring his aching heart at her, tears welling up in his eyes.)

Jenny

I won't let you, disgrace the royal family because of your weakness. (she suggests through her bare teeth.)

Jenny

Listening to your mother, is part of you growing. Stop being weak.

(she turns to leave before she could step out of the room,she turns back)

Jenny

your food is getting cold.

( She walks out and slams the door behind her, leaving him fluttering his teary eyelids.)

SAD

LIN

I don't wanna lie...the queen's words keep running through my mind.

LIN

I personally never met the Royal family members but after I met them at the movie premiere. I don't want to meet them again.

(she was not the same again, her bubble face that always had a warm smile that can light up the whole room faded in a second of meeting the queen and crown prince.)

*AT HER HOME.*

(It became quieter place that keeps on playing the queen's words like a broken record on her mind.)
