CHILD: |
Is
that all the fireworks? |
|
|
|
|
|
|
WAYNE: |
No,
no. There will be more. They are getting ready. All the big ones
come later. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
CHILD: |
I
can't wait. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
WAYNE: |
Sure you can. Are you having a good time? |
|
|
|
|
|
|
CHILD: |
Yes. May I have something to eat? |
|
|
|
|
|
|
CARRIE: |
I
have some sandwiches. Would you like one? |
|
|
|
|
|
|
CHILD: |
OK.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
CARRIE: |
Martin, would you like a sandwich? |
|
|
|
|
|
|
MARTIN: |
Sure, thanks. Do you always bring sandwiches to the fireworks?
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
WAYNE: |
She
takes sandwiches everywhere. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
CARRIE: |
It
seems to make you happy. Would you like one? |
|
|
|
|
|
|
WAYNE: |
Of
course. Thanks. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
MARTIN: |
I
feel wonderful. It makes me feel good to see a community doing
something together. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
WAYNE: |
I
know what you mean. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
MARTIN: |
It
looks like they enjoy one another. They look happy. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
CARRIE: |
We
are. We've lived here for ten years. Before we came here, it seemed
like a nice town. Now, I know people enjoy one another. They like
living here. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
MARTIN: |
It
seems a good place to live. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
WAYNE: |
Very good. Of course, I don't like big cities. I like small towns.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
MARTIN: |
What about your children? Do they enjoy it? Are they happy? |
|
|
|
|
|
|
CARRIE: |
They have never lived anywhere else. They seem fine. They have lots
of friends. They can go anywhere in town. They have a good school.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
CHILD: |
Daddy, when are they going to begin? |
|
|
|
|
|
|
WAYNE: |
Any
time now. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
CARRIE: |
I
think they are going to begin now. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
WAYNE: |
I
told you. Wasn't that nice? |
|
|
|
|
|
|
CARRIE: |
That seemed bigger and louder. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
CHILD: |
It
was. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
WAYNE: |
Come over here and sit beside me. Mr. Learner can't see with you in
front. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
MARTIN: |
That's fine. I'm happy. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
CHILD: |
Are
you having a good time? |
|
|
|
|
|
|
MARTIN: |
I'm
having a very good time. I like fireworks. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
MARTIN: |
You
look happy. Do you like fireworks? |
|
|
|
|
|
|
CHILD: |
Oh,
yes! I'm having the best time! |
|
|
|
|
|
|
CARRIE: |
Martin, would you like something to drink? I have tea and soft
drinks. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
MARTIN: |
No
thanks. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
CHILD: |
May
I have a drink? |
|
|
|
|
|
|
CARRIE: |
Yes. Here. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
CHILD: |
Thank you. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
CARRIE: |
You're welcome. Wayne, you look very tired. Do you want to go home?
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
CHILD: |
Oh,
no. It's not finished. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
WAYNE: |
I
feel fine. I'm tired, but let's wait until the fireworks are
finished. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
CARRIE: |
It's almost finished. Look down there, children. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
MARTIN: |
It
seems it's about finished. They are lighting several things at one
time. Look. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
WAYNE: |
There it goes! |
|
|
|
|
|
|
WAYNE: |
That's really the end now. Let's go home. |
|
