Another Me Page #3

I don't know.

Now I know about it...

I feel like I miss her.

But, really, I've

always missed her,

just never known it

was her that I missed.

I don't like seeing you sad.

I know.

Oh, I hate the fog.

It's so spooky.

Oh, scaredy-cat.

Don't worry,

I'll protect you.

Thanks, but I definitely

don't need protecting.

Okay.

You changed

your hair.

What about it?

I don't know. You look

like a different person.

What, and you don't like me

looking like a different person?

No.

It's nice.

Okay, well,

I've got to...

Yeah.

Go now. So...

Um, I'll see you tomorrow?

Uh, yeah.

Great. Cool.

Night.

I'm home.

Dad?

Fay.

Are you all right?

I'm fine, I'm fine.

What happened?

Oh, I...

I must have fallen asleep

reading my book or something.

I don't know.

Well, are you all right?

I'm fine, I'm fine.

Don't you worry about me.

That's it. Pull me up.

You nearly gave me

a heart attack.

You're too young

for a heart attack.

Here you go.

Thank you.

Fay.

You don't want

to look at that.

Oh, my God.

Put it down, Fay.

Fay.

My love.

Fay.

F...

- Good morning, Miles.

- Good morning, Vincent.

Behaving yourselves?

I doubt it.

Hey, just the girl I wanted to see.

I'm late.

Hey, listen,

I just wanted to say

that I've stolen a few hours

from your English class

for rehearsals.

Hey! Come back.

I waved at you this morning

in the playground.

You just ignored me.

Why didn't

you wave back at me?

What's the problem?

I came in

through the street entrance.

I haven't been in the playground

this morning.

Maybe it was, uh...

maybe it was Monica.

I don't know. I just...

Look, I was out last night.

Bit of a hangover.

Maybe it was just me.

Take care, Fay.

- "Look at me. I'm Fay.

- Please notice me.

I'll do anything

to attract attention."

You!

It's been you all along,

you little b*tch!

You think you can mess

with my head?

Fay!

What are

you doing?

Go on, Fay!

You psycho!

Stop, Fay.

You mess with

me again,

I swear I'll kill you!

Get off!

Fay, please!

Come on!

Fay! Fay, come on.

Calm down.

What is going on?

Relax.

She's a psycho.

Monica Meldrum

is impersonating me.

She keeps pretending to be me.

Why on earth would she go to

all that trouble? I don't know.

Because I got the main part

in the school play

and she wanted it.

I mean, she even said I only

got it because my dad's dying.

Why would Monica

say something...

Because she's insane.

It's not me.

Don't you see? This

is what she wants.

Okay, if she really is trying

to impersonate you,

just ignore her

and she'll soon get tired of it.

How can I

ignore her?

This morning she came in through

the playground and a teacher

actually mistook

her for me.

Okay, Fay, I don't know

about anything else,

but this morning she was not

in the playground

pretending to be you.

She got in early

through the street entrance

for school council...

I can vouch for that myself.

There's nothing I can do.

I have to call your parents.

Well, at least from now on

you'll be able to tell us apart.

I'm doing

what I can, but...

it's a delicate area.

You're gonna have

quite a scar.

I hope so.

Do you remember

when we used to come here?

You always insisted

on a Lion King balloon.

And then you'd hold on to it

for two minutes, and...

you'd let

it go.

I liked to see it fly away.

I wish everything could just be

the way it was back then.

You, me.

Your dad.

I'd do anything

for you, Fay.

Anything.

I would.

I really would.

Stop seeing my...

Stop seeing him, then.

What?

Don't deny it, please.

I don't know what you...

Is that why I got the main part?

No!

No, no, of course not.

How could you, Mum?

No.

I'm-I'm so sorry.

I didn't mean for it

to happen. I just...

You-you just couldn't help

yourself?

It's been a...

been a difficult...

Couldn't you have waited?

I'm sorry.

Life's not always as...

simple as you

want it to be.

It's as simple as you make it.

All right,

I'll end it.

I promise.

Fay?

Yeah?

Darling, Drew's here.

He's come to

say hello.

Oh. Um...

Yeah, no, send him in.

Hi.

I, um...

I wanted to see

if you're all right.

Oh. Yeah. Fine.

Did you

take these?

Yeah.

That's really cool.

God, is that you and your twin?

It's really

beautiful.

So, does it hurt?

Oh, not much.

Everyone thinks I'm crazy,

right?

No. No, not at all.

In fact, actually, I think they

were planning on giving you

the Most Uncrazy Teen

of the Year award.

I don't know. Maybe I am.

I don't know

what to believe anymore.

It turns out

it wasn't Monica after all.

Yeah, I heard you were

quite impressive.

Let me know next time,

and I'll sell tickets.

We could make

a fortune.

Okay, ready? When we

get to there, we race.

Okay.

I'm so slow.

"Well, she said, 'Yes, '

we said, 'I do.'"

That's so cringe.

I think that means

they got married.

Really?

Yeah.

Oh, I think so.

Well done. Well done, Drew.

"Marjorie and Joe Lodge,

who loved the pier and the sea."

There.

It's okay, my love.

My girl.

My darling.

Oh.

It's okay.

Baskin-Robbins once made

a ketchup-flavored ice cream.

Ugh.

Ugh.

Oh, that's

just vile.

They've got shrimp-flavored

ice cream in Japan.

Oh.

Mmm.

Mm-hmm. And seaweed.

Horrible.

Well, we should get our acts

together in about five minutes.

Hmm?

It's okay.

Come here.

Get a room.

That doesn't

look too pretty.

I'm-I'm sure that's...

Excuse me.

I think I know this car.

What's going on, Fay?

Can I help you?

It's Moffat's car.

What?

You know

John Moffat?

He's our

drama teacher.

Is he...

Oh, it's a nasty accident.

He's in theater at

ICU, St. Bernard's.

What happened?

There was a girl in

the road, apparently.

She threw a stone

through the windscreen,

and the driver swerved

into the tree.

But there's been

no sign of anyone.

We can't find the girl who did it anywhere.

Sh*t.

There was another

passenger in the car.

Uh, a woman.

The paramedics, they sent her

home with barely a scratch.

Fay, what's going on?

My twin did this.

She knew. She knew before

I did Mum didn't end it.

Fay, what are you talking about?

What if this other person

is like an extension of me?

I'm sorry, I've got to go.

Mum?

I've got

a migraine, love.

I'm gonna

sleep it off.

Okay.

Okay, love,

I'm off to work.

Mum?

Yeah?

Mum.

Are you okay?

Mm-hmm.

You not getting ready

for school?

Oh, I'm not feeling too good.

Could you call me in sick?

Sure. I'll see you tonight.

So, we'll pick up where

we left off yesterday, shall we?

That would be

act one, scene six.

If you remember,

they had just

arrived at Macbeth's castle.

Thanks for the photo.

I don't know how you did it,

but you look really hot.

So, please,

Banquo, Macbeth...

The photo you put in my locker?

Lady Macbeth

and Duncan.

Macbeth and Lady Macbeth,

any time today, thank you.

So, the top of page 36.

And, Fay, if you

can do the couplets

with the rhythm you had

yesterday, that was brilliant.

You mean Monica?

I wasn't here yesterday.
