                   some days were better than others

                                   [eve sighs]

she put down the letter

he’d eventually find another

then she picked up the sweater

                                 it was pretty

maybe her mother was right

it was a waste of time to fight

                       [she calls her brother]

                   hello?

                   do you think Howard will be on the next flight?

peter :

                   i think there was a delay, he’ll be in New York City for at least another hour

eve :

                   thanks Peter

peter :

                   no problem

                  [on the set of Rush hour 4]

director :

                   do you really think he’s the right guy?

producer :

                   all I can say is that we should give him a try

director :

                   so where is he now?

                         [producer shrugs]



                         [at Bow Wow’s]

bow wow :

                   did eve really make that vow?

                        [Jermaine nods]


                   [Bow Wow shaking his head]

                   wow!!!!!!!!

                        [at the airport]

howard :

                   whew …. I need some chow

                   Quiznos could work

                   ah ….

                   [after paying for the food]

                   Chicken Carbonara …. Delicious

                   [while eating Howard thinks to himself]

                   this time away from Eve has been viscious



tourist#1 :


                   there he is

tourist#2 :


                   are you sure? he doesn’t look suspicious to me

tourist#1 :

                   oh that’s him alright

tourist#2 :

                   you’re being superstitious

tourist#1 :

                   are you telling me that all the claims we’ve heard are fictitious?

tourist#2 :

                   no but I do believe if he were a little more ambitious he would’ve …..

                               [grabs her hand]

tourist#2 :

                    honey, what are you .... ?

tourist#1 :

                   let’s go find out

                   excuse me sir

howard :

                  hey guys

tourist#1:

                  is that nutritious?

howard :

                  i hope so

tourist#1 :

                  thanks for your time

                         [they hurry away]

howard :

                  what was that all about?

                         [around the corner]

                  you were right honey

                        [ his wife agrees]

                  just like Eve we took the wrong route

                  there’s no doubt

                             he loves her





                                                                                         love,

                                                                                         eve & howard
