The aroma of food is thick in the air, she has been cooking and fixing all the essentials for what seemed to be a lovely meal all afternoon. She was just starting to set the table when. Knock! Knock! She walks the familiar path to the door and opens it slowly. A look of pure joy sweeps across her face and as she opens the door we see the hansom young man from the alley his face a mixture of happiness and worry. He swiftly walks in making sure to shut the door afterwards, he takes the time to lock the door and turns with a look of great relief on his face. He walks towards the young woman and embraces her in a very passionate hug. She leans in to kiss him, but he quickly lifts his finger to stop her. A mischievous grin crosses his face, he walks towards a record player. At this she give a little laugh and walks to the kitchen, she lights the gas stove and makes sure to keep it on low she then puts on a pot of tea. She turns back the young man to find him in the middle of a low bow. A very rag time music begins to play. He reaches his hand to her and she takes it, they then begin to dance. Not just fast but slow and of course every thing in between. A montage takes place of the couple in two or three type of dances. They are on a slow song they are holding themselves very close, he strokes back her dark mahogany colored hair . He slowly grabs the side of her face and starts to lean in for a kiss . A loud knock resounded in the room. It came again, the door actually shook with the weight that came from the beating. The young couples face are covered with fear, the young man goes to push against the door when... boom! the door was kicked free and two men stormed into the room guns raised yelling in German! The first man points to the girl, the young man steps in between the soldiers and the young girl and takes a swing at the solder. Bang! The boy takes a few steps back, a look pain and disbelief crosses his face. The clean white shirt he had been wearing just moments before was now crimson red the same color as the bands on the two men arms. He falls to his knees clutching his stomach. The young woman walks up to the man and slaps him hard in the face. The solder steps back as a few droplets of blood start to slip down his bearded face. Bang! The girl falls back in slow motion to the floor, her hair flows in front of her face. The solders aim had been true he had shot her in the star that had covered the left side of her chest for so long.A pool of blood was already forming around her back just seconds later, the boy tries to stand, but falls back, the solders leave the apartment without saying a word. The record was still playing the slow sad ballad, the young man moves close and reaches out his hand to the young womans hand and grasps it tight. Looking towards her face he sees her face. Hardly over a whisper the young man says I love you and closes his eyes. Fade to Black. |
