Act I Scene IV- “That’s Exactly What I Mean”- The Park
Alicia is sitting on a bench by the fountain of the park. Chloe comes in running and sits next to Alicia. Emily hides behind a bush that is close by and overhears their conversation.
Alicia
What took you so long?
Chloe
Why do you want to break up Diana and Sebastian? This morning you told Diana to go become friends with Sebastian now you don’t want them to talk to each other at all?
Alicia
I thought that if Diana became friends with Sebastian me and him would become friends too. I told her to do that so that he could like ME, not Diana.
Chloe
Girl, he likes Diana, your sister. Okay, just find another guy. There’s plenty of them out there.
Alicia
STEP-sister and that’s exactly what I mean. There’s so many out there, so Diana better get another one or else.
Chloe
Or else what? Wait- I don’t want to know, and I ain’t going to let you break them apart.
Alicia
You really think YOU can stop me? Look, if you even think about going against me at all, I swear, I ain’t going down alone. Got that?
Chloe
Fine
Alicia
Don’t worry. You won’t be the only one helping me. I’ll get more people to help us. Two for now, but then more and more. I don’t care if I have to get the whole school to do this with me. No matter what, I won’t let them be together.
Alicia and Chloe leave in separate ways. Emily texts Diana but the text can’t be sent. She decides to wait until tomorrow. Emily runs away.
