MEET Angelica
ANGELICA WORK, ABRAMO CASUAL
P ANG smiles to the COTS
P ANG looks at COTS - she isn't satisfied
INTRO CONVERSATION
ABR visits the office building for the first time and he needs to meet his publisher. ANG guides him.
After clicking on Angelica
P ANG stands behind the reception counter smiling
ANG: Good afternoon, how may I help you?
ABR: I'm Abramo Tutti. I have an appointment with Stephen More at “Black letters” publishing house's new offices.
ANG: All right, Mr. Tutti, just let me check his schedule. Oh. Here it is. Yes, your meeting is on the twenty-third floor and ... you're already five minutes late.
ABR: I know. Sorry. All these towers are confusing, I wasn't able to find your building, without stopping twice and asking for help. I don't come downtown too often.
ANG: Don't look so worried. I work on Stephen's desk a lot, he nearly always runs late; so you have a good chance to beat him to his office. Here's your guest pass and take that bank of elevators over there. I'll call ahead to let his assistant know you're on your way up, Mr. Tutti.
ABR: Thanks. What is your name, good lady?
ANG: "Good lady"? Well, good sir, my name is Angelica. Don't be nervous, you'll do fine, Mr. Tutti.
ABR: Thanks for all your kind help, Angelica. I need all the prayer and well wishes I can get.
P ANG has her hands on the counter and smiles to the COTS (CENTER OF THE SCREEN)
NARRATOR: I'd entered the forbidding office tower feeling harried and afraid I was about to lose everything. If I'm not a published writer, then I'm an unemployed writer. But, now I truly feel more confident and less like I'm dragging a burden. Maybe there really is a God, or whoever who sent the kind angel, Angelica to bless my day. Well, everyone's day, she's not just here for me. Or is she?
NARRATOR: Hm, good story point. Whatever, if this publishing goes bust, maybe I'll try for a regular day job in this building so I can see and speak with Angelica every day.
