Screenplay
(Start the film with break up)
Ext. In the car – Afternoon
The guy and girl are parked right outside of the girl's house talking about the status of their relationship.
GUY
I want you to be happy, but I know that won't be with me and you know that
GIRL
No, I am happiest with you. How can you say that?
GUY
I think its best if we split
GIRL
*sighs* but I think we can fix this…
GUY
We can’t and my feelings won't change
GIRL
I’m sorry. I just want to be with you
GUY
No. This is the last time I'm saying this. WE ARE DONE!
*Walks away upset*
GIRL
*Stands in place, in shock*
Now starts the 5 stages of heartbreak (denial, anger, sorrow, bargaining, and acceptance)
Int. In the house – Sunset
Denial
GIRL
He said he’ll love me forever
GIRL
I didn’t even do anything wrong. I think...
GIRL
This can’t be happening. He was definitely joking
Anger
GIRL
He’s an selfish idiot who never deserved me
GIRL
I feel horrible for the next girl who has to be with him
GIRL
Never again will I ever be with someone like him
GIRL
He was a waste of time
Sorrow
GIRL
He wasn’t even thinking about my feelings
FRIEND
He was out of your league
GIRL
But he was so good to me and hurt me
FRIEND
He didn’t deserve you
GIRL
I was so good to him
Bargaining
FRIEND
Hey, he’s going to the party today... Are you coming?
GIRL
Yes, I’ll get ready right now.
FRIEND
Are you done getting
pretty?
GIRL
Almost getting keys. FRIEND
(Different friend name) just told me he isn’t coming.
Acceptance
(Quotations are actions not dialogue)
GIRL
“Making peace with herself and confidence”
GIRL
“Getting ready for herself not anyone else”
FRIEND
Are you coming to tomorrow’s party?
GIRL
No but do you want to watch movies and talk
FRIEND
Of course, you don’t deserve him anyways. Let’s have a nice time.
