Scene 11 - INT - Estate Agents

Jane Hogan, a single mum to two young adults, sits behind her desk. She’s wearing a navy skirt suit with a white top underneath and white neckerchief - one of her usual accessories. Jane is a warm and friendly woman who enjoys having a laugh but has experienced much pain and anger in her past. Jane sits opposite Harriet and Calvin Wickham.

Harriet is a thirty two year old mother, and with her husband Calvin she wants to finally move out of her parents house but is bracing herself for breaking their hearts. She is mainly worried about how her dad will take it since he seems to ‘dislike’ her husband, Calvin. Calvin just wants his family to be happy so takes whatever Harriet’s dad throw at him like a man, he doesn’t retaliate and doesn’t rise to a challenge, in many ways he is the bigger man. Harriet is wearing jeans with a leather jacket, Calvin is wearing jeans with a baggy, dark green hooded jumper.

Jane: So d’you know what you’re exactly looking for?

Harriet: A two bedroom house for us and our daughter, Emily.

Jane: What kind of price range would be suitable for you?

Calvin: (Glances at Harriet) We were thinking about renting a place, say up to £300 a month?

Jane: Okay, if you want I can check on the system and mail what I find to you?

Calvin: Okay, thank you.

Calvin and Harriet get up, they shake Jane’s hand before leaving.

Calvin: When are we going to tell your parents?

Harriet: I don’t know, sometime soon.

Two teenagers, Carly Johnson and Frankie Jasper walk past them going in the opposite direction. Carly is Will and Imogen’s daughter, she’s kind and likes to have fun. She has straight, black, shoulder length hair. She’s wearing blue skinny jeans with trainers and a pale pink jacket. Frankie has dark brown hair, she smiles a lot and her brown eyes light up when she laughs. Frankie is wearing a black pair of sailor shorts, textured tights with grey ankle boots and a grey vest top.

Frankie: I really needed this day off

Carly: Yeah me too. But it must be sad for Mr Smith, losing his wife so suddenly like that.

Frankie: Yeah.

Carly: What’s the time?

Her mobile phone vibrates in her pocket and she take it out, she slides the face up and reads the next text message.

‘ Hey, I miss you. When will you see me again? I know you said you want space to think things through, to decide whether you’re really happy with Aidan but please talk to me. X’
