Sasha scene from As If, practice script

SASHA

What’s wrong?

ROB

I gotta go. This is...too much.

SASHA

Rob, hold on, why are you doing this to me?

ROB

TO YOU!?

SASHA

(Shocked at his rage, then

trying to calm him down) We were laughing at Jaime and then...

ROB

Don’t worry about it.

SASHA

Ok, so you don’t want me to touch you is that it? Well, I’m sorry Rob, it just happened, okay?

ROB

Like it did with Chris?

SASHA

Not at all.

ROB

We finish, then BANG Sasha’s with Chris.

SASHA

That was a big mistake.

ROB

That’s probably what you told him about us, I mean what did I do for you?

SASHA

(Desperate)

Everything.

SASHA

(Sensitively)

Nearly everything.

ROB

(Defensive)

Go on, rub it in, you’re such a bitch.

SASHA

I’m not with Chris anymore!

ROB

I don’t wanna talk about it.

SASHA

Well, I do.

SASHA (CONT’D)

I never was "with him."

ROB

(In her face, coldly)

You slept with him. How could you, didn’t we mean anything?

SASHA

I didn’t think you wanted me.

ROB

What just cause I didn’t want to have...

SASHA

(Sensitive)

Say it.

ROB

(Now defensive)

We didn’t work out Sash, just leave it alone, it’s not worth it.

SASHA

It’s not worth it?

ROB

You want too much, you’re so spoiled.

SASHA

Oh I am, am I? I thought you said I was your Queen, how beautiful I made you feel, how we were made for each other. You told me I was your soul mate...

ROB

(Interrupting her)

Shut up.

SASHA

You can’t take it, can you?

SASHA (CONT’D)

(Calmer)

Rob, I don’t want to argue with you, I just wanna talk.

ROB

Fine, let’s talk. So tell me, did you enjoy it with Chris? Was he good?

ROB (CONT’D)

TALK! You must think I’m a real wimp. Admit it, you think I’m a wimp.

SASHA

(Scared by his aggression, her

eyes filling up) I’m really, really sorry. You know, we do stupid things, and OK so I made a mistake, a big mistake, but it’s you I want. Talk to me, explain to me, so we can pick up from where we left off.
