TITLE
Charlotte Tulloch
FADE IN
Through a security camera.
A children’s bedroom toys everywhere, a child’s mobile slowly circling around a white cot. There’s a tall wooden door, it swings open with a BANG. The little girl awakes she sit up as if she was a robot. A small wooden chair creaks along the floor the stops in the centre. A cloud of mist stops in front of the camera lens.
FADE WHITE
The same bedroom but full of colour, the door slowly opens a young woman appears no older than 26. A friendly face. The woman walks over to the little girl and holds her in her arms and walks out the room, the door closes behind them.
A SMALL COSY LIVING ROOM
The television is on, showing a colourful children’s programme. The mom turns her back the television changes to a loud crime programme, she walks over and takes the remote out her daughters hands and places it on other couch.
The mom turns her back the channel once again, she turns around the remote is still were she placed it the little girl fasted asleep. She looks around the living room door slams shut.
PHONE RINGS
She hesitates to answer, she slowly picks up the phone.
CARA: h…hello...
Friendly voice
VOICE ON PHONE: Hey Cara, it’s Michael, I’m in the city and was wondering if you were home?
Cara sighs with relief.
CARA: yea that would be great haha
MICHAEL: will be there soon, you okay? You sound panicked…
CARA: I’m fine, TV’s just playing up again!
MICHAEL: I’ll have a loom when I come round, see you later.
Cara puts the phone back on the cradle and goes to check on Maddie, she enters the room we saw at the beginning. Cara walks over and opens the curtains. Light fills the room. On the window ledge there’s birthday cards with princess’s and big number 3’s on them. There’s a picture of a little girl holding a man’s hand in a gold and silver frame with the words I will miss you in fancy lettering and 1990-2014 in the bottom left hand corner. Cara slowly picks up the photo and brings it to eye level she sheds a tear then places it back down.
