A café, somewhere in England. It is empty, except for the Owner and a Wheelchair-bound Man. The Wheelchair-bound Man is, it seems fair to say, not welcome.
The scene has clearly been one of awkwardness for several years.
O Can I get you anything?
W No.
Silence.
hacking cough
O Oh Christ...
W Shut up!
hacking cough
Don’t you dare... !
O Let me get you -
W No! No! I’m not going to be beaten –
hacking cough
Away! Get away!
O gives him a glass of water
W snatches the glass and gulps it greedily
Ah...
O Better?
W None of your business! Yes.
O waits
W blank
O waits
W Thank you.
O cleans the glass
Silence.
W Can I do anything?
O No.
End.
