Its probably 2 am. Bedroom bathed in a surreal blue light, viewed above the room. The 3 girls are sound asleep in the bedroom. Distant rumblings of thunder, occasional flashes of lightning. Cheryl stirs, sits up, gets out of bed, walks to Linda�s bed and shakes her. Cheryl (grabs and shakes Linda ) : I want to go toilet. Linda ( groans): What? Cheryl : I need to go to toilet. Now. Linda : Why every night at this time! Thunder. Cheryl screams and jumps into Linda�s bed. Linda pushes her off her bed and climbs out. Walks to the bathroom located at corner of room, turns on toilet lights. Cheryl goes in while Linda waits outside, eyes shut. Cheryl returns to bed and Linda switches off light, then staggers to her bed. More flashes of lightning. Big storm obviously brewing. The audience realizes that the scene is being viewed by the ghost of Lim. Lim looks the same, except more desperate and lonely. His hair is still immaculately combed to try hiding the bald patch. Pallid complexion. Lim watches over his daughters as they sleep. This appears to be his fate. He sees the girls toss in their bed, Cheryl waking Linda to bring her to the toilet. He weeps piteously as Linda tucks her into bed, then climbs into her bed. Something was happening. A shadowy figure with his head hooded has broken into the room. More flashes of lightning, thunder and the hissing of rain. The End Abridged version |
