Look Behind You

Marek: Hana, the bus leaves at six tomorrow. We’re going to be late again.

Hana: We’re not going to be late. I packed an hour ago.

Marek: Where are my ski pants? I can’t find them.

Hana: Look downstairs. You left them by the door.

(Marek runs downstairs.)

Marek: Found them! But where’s my belt?

Hana: It’s upstairs, in your bag. I packed it.

Marek: And my gloves?

Hana: In the bag. Stop asking and check the bag.

Marek: This bag is enormous. What did you put in here?

Hana: Your clothing, your boots, your snacks. Everything.

Marek: Wait. Where are the ski tickets?

Hana: I’m holding them. I’ve been holding them the whole time.

Marek: Okay. So we’re ready?

Hana: I’m ready. You’re going to be ready once you sit down and stop running.

Marek: Fine. I’ll sit.

(Marek sits. Then he stands up again.)

Marek: One more thing. Where’s my other ski?

Hana: Marek. Look behind you.
