SCENE 10

INT. AMARIO'S KITCHEN – ONE MONTH LATER – AFTERNOON

AMARIO
(Speaking on his cell phone)
Nah man I can't, I got my knife skills course starting today.

Listening to the other person on the call, and then laughs.

Yeah, laugh at me now but when I'm stealing yo girlfriend with

my puff pastry, you gon be cryin'.

(Listening and smiling)

What can I say… I'm ruled by my stomach…
Nah, my Auntie got me into cooking…
(listening)
Mhmm, exactly!
(Growing with excitement)
Yeah man. You get to travel, see things, meet people. Please
don't put me behind a desk. (Laughing) I'd lose my mind.

Amario listening to his friends defense of working in a more typical job.

Nah nah, not for me. Besides I want to be out and around people
and Auntie said the best way to get ahead in this world is for
someone to be dyin’ for a bite of your food. That's for me, that's
what I want.

(listening)
Yeah man, my Auntie is just good people.
