WEEK 13 Creative Act
Crystal: I donât even think you realize the damage that youâve done to me! You left me to raise your kids while you went out to finish living the rest of your life.Â
Andrea: I did everything I could for you and those kids. Your daddy left me, ALONE! and I gave yaâll everything I had left of me. (slams hand on the table)
Crystal: Ma, maybe itâs time for you to realize that it wasnât enough. You cannot tell me that leaving me to raise two kids while I was still in high school was okay. Ma, I am hurting! The drugs took you away from us, you were never here!
Andrea: Crystal, I had to live my life too. I am sorry that I ruined your life. I am sorry that I was not good to you. I tried the best way I knew how.Â
Crystal: I pray that I am twice the mother you were to me to my unborn child.Â
Andrea: Unborn child? Cr- Crystal are you pregnant?Â
Crystal: Yes, 3 months. Thatâs actually why I stopped by. I came to pick up the twins and the rest of their stuff. Iâm taking them with me and weâre moving to Georgia.Â
Andrea: You canât take my kids and my grand baby away from me! The belong TO ME!
Crystal: They are not objects, you have been treating them like objects since dad left and you know damn well you ainât fit to raise no kids without me around. I am whatâs best for them. I raised them and Iâll be damned if I let you put them through what you put me through.Â
Andrea: So you just gonna take away the only thing I have to live for? the only people I got?Â
Crystal: Ma, you stopped living a long time ago. (Walks out the door and slowly closes it behind her)
AND SCENE!
