play

This is what i have so far. Any changes or suggestions just let me know.While I was writing it i found it hard to make humorous so ill need suggestions on that and when laura goes to the zoo i was wondering if there should be some dialog or just actions.

          (LAURA goes to her laptop and play some music and              starts playing with her glass menagerie)
AMANDA
(AMANDA walks in and LAURA rushes to turn off the music and starts typing)
How was school?
Laura
Ahhh school, school was good.
AMANDA
Really, what did you do today?
                        LAURA
Today weeeeee learned a new format.
AMANDA
(AMANDA walks up to the laptop and takes it)
I went to the business school and ask your teacher how you were doing. And she didn’t know who you were. But that there was this very shy girl that got sick during the first test and never came back. What have you been doing?
LAURA
Im so sorry I just didn’t want to disappoint you and see that look on your face. As for what I did, I just walked most of the time.
AMANDA
You walked for 10 hours every day.
LAURA
Well sometimes I would go to the mall and today I went to the zoo to see the penguins.
AMANDA
Laura now a day everyone needs some sort of education. Without an education you don’t have many choices. Have you thought of marrying anyone Laura?
laura
You know I can’t talk to people. I get nervous trying to talk to anybody.
amanda
Well have you tried finding someone online like on Facebook. This way you don’t have to talk to anybody.
Laura
Since you mention online there is this guy I met in this game I play. He seems nice but I don’t he lives around here.
Amanda
Those people are probably weirdos in real life, I’ll just ask your brother to see if he knows anyone single for you.
