INT. NANA’S LIVING ROOM – NIGHT
“The room is dimly lit, the soft glow from a single lamp painting a serene atmosphere. There’s an undercurrent of nervous energy, as Tony and Nana stand at opposite ends, unable to find the right words.”
Tony (taking a deep breath): “Nana, before Beth arrives, I need to be honest with you. And with myself.”
“Nana nods slowly, her eyes searching his for a hint of what’s to come.”
Tony: “I thought time would fade our memories, but being back here, seeing you again… it’s like everything was only yesterday. I can’t go on with this wedding, knowing what I feel for you.”
Nana (voice barely audible): “Tony… I feel the same way. But we can’t just…”
Before she can finish, the door swings open. Beth stands there, her face a canvas of shock and understanding. She must’ve heard their confession.
There’s a deafening silence, only broken by Beth’s shaky breaths.
Beth (teary-eyed, but with a sad smile): “I always thought our love was strong, Tony. But seeing you both now, I realize that true love speaks louder than words. It’s evident in your eyes, your actions. I can’t stand in the way of that.”
Nana (guilt-ridden): “Beth, I’m so sorry.”
Beth (voice breaking but strong): “Sometimes, destiny has its own plans. I just wish you both had found each other sooner. I hope you find happiness.”
“She turns away, leaving behind a room filled with mixed emotions.”
“Tony and Nana are left, grappling with the weight of their decisions and the unexpected turn their lives have taken. They sit side by side, seeking comfort in their rediscovered connection.”
