Sonny:
[Running up the stairs of Sunaina's workplace shouting -]
Sunaina! Sunaina! Sunaina! Sunaina!
Sunaina's Brother:
Hey, what's going on?
Sonny:
[Bent over panting and out of breath from running up the stairs. Holds up one finger to motion to please wait]
Sunaina's Brother:
Sonny?
Sonny:
[Panting]
I need to see Sunaina.
Sunaina's Brother:
Her shift's not over. And when it is, she doesn't want to see you.
Sonny:
Jay. You - You are the son my mother wished I was. An intelligent man with a strong head for business. You see things as they are and not as you wish them to be. So, fuck off out of my way!
[Jay crosses his arms]
Sonny:
Or, you can give her a message. Tell her from me what I should have told her the day we met. What I will announce to anyone who asks and many who do not.
Sunaina:
[Interjects from around the corner]
Including your mother?
Sunaina's Brother:
[Asks Sonny incorrectly]
Including my mother?
Sunaina:
[Correcting Jay]
His mother.
Sunaina's Brother:
Your mother.
Sonny:
I will tell every mother in the land.
Sunaina:
[Asking Sonny]
What will you tell them?
Sunaina's Brother:
[Also asking Sonny]
What will you tell them?
Sonny:
The only thing that matters in this world. That I love you and always will. And by "you" I mean Sunaina, Jay, not you. Although if you are to be my brother-in-law, I hope we can become better friends.
Sunaina:
[Speaking to Jay]
Why is he only saying this now?
Sunaina's Brother:
[Speaking to Sunaina]
You ask him.
Sunaina:
[Comes to the stairs bannister and looks Sonny in the eye]
Why are you only saying this now?
Sonny:
Because, Sunaina... love of my life, no more will I believe that I'm not worthy. For only by loving you as you deserve will I become so.
