EMMA
(to Neil)
Pleeease! Neil looks to Anna.
NEIL You sure you don’t mind? ANNA I’d love to. Neil smiles watching Emma lead Anna upstairs.
INT. NEIL AND EMMA’S HOUSE - EMMA’S BEDROOM - LATER Anna sits in a chair next to Emma in bed, reading to her. ANNA (reading)
As day turned into night, Gwendolyn fell sound asleep... dreaming of her castle and the adventures ahead. (then, to Emma) And that is the end of the chapter.
Emma yawns.
ANNA (CONT'D) We should probably stop here so you can get some sleep. (then, playful) Just like Gwendolyn.
Emma shuts her eyes. As Anna goes to turn off the lamp by Emma’s bed she notices a framed photo of Emma holding hands with her mom, both of them smiling. Heartbreaking. Anna turns off the light. INT. ANNA'S HOUSE - FRONT DOOR - MOMENTS LATER Anna enters and closes the door behind her. She leans against the door, blissful, holding her clean casserole dish tightly to her chest. INT. ANNA’S HOUSE - ANNA’S BEDROOM - LATER Anna’s in bed reading her mystery novel, her almost finished wine on her bedside table.
