[prydonia]

Lynda:So, what are you doing at the writing class today?

Sarah:Nothing. It doesn't start till Tuesday.

Lynda:Tuesday?

Sarah:Yeah, Tuesday.

Lynda:But I thought... Oh I get it, you've got some work for it today, right?

Sarah:No.

Lynda:No?

Sarah:There's nothing till Tuesday.

Lynda:I see.

Sarah:You see what?

Lynda:Well I assumed you were too busy to do the interview. I assumed there was a good reason - other than spite.

Sarah:Come on Lynda, we've talked this through. You know it's not spite.

Lynda:(sits opposite her) Then what is it? You're available for this interview, aren't you? Don't I even rate one last parting gesture?

Sarah:Of course you do!

Lynda:Then why won't you do the interview?

Sarah:I'm going to do the interview, I was always going to! Kind of…

Lynda:Forget it, I'll send someone else.

Sarah:No, I'll do it.

Lynda:I'll send someone else!

Sarah:I want to do it. I insist on doing it!

Lynda:Sarah!

Sarah:Look, I don't care what you say, I'm doing this interview and I'm doing it now, okay? And maybe that will finally prove to you, that my quitting the Gazette has to do with me, not you! Because believe it or not, there are still one or two things which happen in this world which have absolutely nothing to do with Lynda Day!

She gets up and walks over to the door. She opens it then stops, looks at Lynda as realisation dawns and closes it.

Sarah:And this isn't one of them.
