BARRY
Barry had just woken up, sipping a cup of tea on the brisk autumn, when suddenly she walked up with a breath taking appearence

NAOMI
Naomi had walked down to Barry’s house, with a very cheerful smile, she had waved at the young man Barry (Waving slightly at him now)

BARRY
Hello Naomi!
(As he’d wave back in a slow dazing manner.)
  
NAOMI
Hello! (she waved slowly, while pushing her hand down) I have something to tell you!
BARRY
What might that be? (his mind wavered, dazed as he thought about the girl vividly)
(Their gestures would then both peer at each other slightly)
(Naomi had taken a slight pause, while parting her lips to tell Barry now..)
BARRY
Wha..?! you’re moving?! This soon?! (The boy had look a bit shook from this thought, being immensely distraught at the time.
(There was slight silence for a bit, as they’d then take a deep breath, while the silence broke as Naomi hugged Barry.)
NAOMI
Yes.. unfortunately! She’d sigh with distraught, (as she tightly hugged her friend) embracing him, not knowing that the connection was deeper than she thought.
(Naomi had walked away from the porch that had been Barry’s, which seemed like a stage full of life.)
BARRY
(His emotions had began to weaver ever so slightly, as it impacted him greatly..)
MOVERS
Let’s go! Let’s go! As the big white trucks, striped with red lining, with the words “Moving express painted on them”
