Window Shopping: A One Act

WINDOW SHOPPING
(11:45 AM. BOB and I are driving home from the mall.)


BOB
I really need the wooden cookie set from the toy store at The Grove.


ME
We were just window-shopping, Bob. We were only looking, not buying today.


BOB
Mama?


ME
Yes, Pooch?


BOB
Window-shopping is too hard. I can’t do it anymore.


ME
I understand.


BOB
Do you? Do you understand?


ME
I really do. (Beat) Why don’t we put the cookie set on a list for Santa?


BOB
It’s Christmas now?


ME
No, but we can make a list for later.


BOB
Mama? Can you call Santa and tell him that today is Hannukah?


END SCENE
