“An Unrequited Love,” or “Girl, You A Stranger,”

A very short play set on a Wednesday when all the Fs to give are still trying to get back in the groove after a holiday weekend.

Scene: Union Square Manhattan, immediately in front of Whole Foods. A man in his late 20s is talking to a close friend on the phone.

Man: Girl, you a stranger.

(The end.)
