Part One
(A person comes onstage.
Gender is unimportant – although each person will make this role their own in how they differentiate part
one from part two. Suggestion – for ease
– a head covering or jacket. These are easy to wear and easy to
remove. Part one starts as a happy person, bouncy, not worried.)
Oh, Kiley, where are you? Come here you little sweetie…..
(The
person looks around the stage)
Come on, Kiley, it’s not funny to
keep me waiting…..you know we have a lot to do….
(Now
the person is getting a bit worried)
Kiley……you aren’t trying to frighten
me, now are you? I just want to make
sure everything is okay….you can come out now……you have to eat before we
leave…..
(More
nervous, the person is a bit frantic)
Kiley…..please….I am starting to get
worried…..where are you? Come out! (Yelling)
Now!
(There
is a sound, the person reacts, much happier)
I heard you! You little devil you! You ARE hiding! Why do you do this to me! You know I love you! Well, I’m gonna find you!
(The
person smiles, is looking around, sees something, grabs, happy, holding on
tight)
Oh, Kiley! You are such a troublemaker!
You’re gonna pay for this!
(Holds
Kiley up high, smothers in kisses)
There! I’ve got you now!
(Pulls
Kiley close)
And I’m never gonna let you go!
(Smiles
as they leave)
And you’re never gonna hide like
that again, right?
(Puts
Kiley next to head, laughing)
I didn’t hear you!
(They
exit)
Part Two
(The
person returns, wearing the different hat/jacket – or without it. The person is
in a terrible
mood…can we smell alcohol on the breath? This is not a happy person, this is a person
with a mission)
Oh, Kiley, where are you? (Sarcastic)
Come here you little sweetie…..
(The
person looks around the stage)
(Harsh) Come on, Kiley, it’s not funny to keep me
waiting…..you know we have a lot to do….
(Now
the person is getting a bit annoyed)
Kiley……you aren’t trying to frighten
me, now are you? (Fake sweet) I just
want to make sure everything is okay….you can come out now……you have to eat
before we leave…..
(More
annoyed, the person starts to get agitated)
Kiley….(fake sweet).please….I am
starting to get worried…..where are you?
Come out! (No more
sweet….yelling) Now!
(There
is a sound, the person reacts, the smile is of the hunter)
I heard you! (Faking, trying to be pleasant) You little devil you! You ARE hiding! Why do you do this to me! (Overly sweet) You know I love you! Well, I’m gonna find you!
(The
person smiles, an unpleasant smile, is looking around, sees something, grabs, holding on
tight, too tight)
Oh, Kiley! You are such a troublemaker! You're gonna pay for this!
(Holds
Kiley up high, squeezing)
(Fury) There!
I’ve got you now!
(Pulls
Kiley close)
And I’m never gonna let you go!
(The
person now strangles Kiley until there is no life left)
And you’re never gonna hide like
that again, right?
(Puts
Kiley next to head, laughing)
I didn’t hear you!
(The
person laughs, holds Kiley in arms as they exit)
(End Note
– I used ‘me’ instead of Mommy/Daddy for ease of reading, but the actor can use
Mommy/Daddy as gender desires – this will make the piece scarier and more
personal. Actor’s choice. For those who want to know who Kiley is –
that, too, will be the actor’s decision – pet, child, make it real. This piece is designed so that you could even
interpret it several other ways – but that is for tomorrow)
