Sombrero Triste: A One Act

SOMBRERO TRISTE

BOB is watching the computer screen over my shoulder as I change my Twitter profile background photo.

BOB

Who is that crying hat boy?

ME

He’s you. Baby you.

BOB

Bob is crying?

ME

You were.

BOB

Why is that Bob crying?

ME

He didn’t like his hat.

BOB

Who put the hat on him?

ME

I did.

BOB

Why did you do that if Bob didn’t like it?

ME

Because it was pretty cute.

BOB

What part was cute?

MOM

The baby and the hat and the crying.

BOB

That is mean.

ME

But you were adorable.

BOB

Mean Mama.
