Any Day Page #6

I have someone coming over

in a few minutes.

You have a new guy

already? Wow.

That didn't take

but a hot second

for some other sucker to start

giving you the hard one.

You know what? You're drunk,

and I think you should get out.

I need a place to stay

for the night.

Can I stay here for the night?

No.

Oh, come on.

Do you have any self-respect?

Hey, wha... you know,

I don't need you.

I don't need this sh*t.

You know, I'd come

over here thinking

maybe, maybe we had

something going.

And you know what? We don't.

We don't have anything

going, do we?

No, we don't.

I don't need you.

If you wanted

to be back with me,

I wouldn't even want

to be with you.

You, you jerk my chain

and act like you're into me.

What a joke.

You have anything to drink?

No. Get out.

Don't you call me.

You don't call me no more.

I'm done with you.

All right, we're closing at

10:
00, so start wrapping it up!

What the hell?

What the freak you're doing, vi?

Leave me alone.

Leave you alone? Yes.

Are you stupid or something?

I told you not

to freaking come here,

now get your stuff and get out!

Screw you.

Hey, man! What the hell

is wrong with you?

Get off of me!

Yeah, hit him!

Hit him again!

All right. That's

enough, that's enough.

Come on! Come on!

Don't bring your foot

back in here!

Screw him, man!

Did you speak to the cops?

Charging you with felony

and assault

with a deadly weapon.

Yeah.

Guess I'll be going away

for a long while.

That's okay.

You guys can leave.

Jimmy's funeral is today.

I wish I could make it.

Yeah, I know You'll

be there in spirit.

Hey, Vian. You know

those meetings I go to?

Yeah?

Well, I'm an alcoholic.

I've been sober 18 years, and...

stuff your meetings

up your fricking ass.

I told you I didn't

want you to see my sister!

Let's go.

Hey, Uncle vi.

Jimmy?

It's okay.

What's going on?

Is this a dream?

I came to tell you

that's It's all okay,

and everything is perfect.

But you're not alive.

I'm right here.

I talked to your mom and dad.

They say they love you.

Grandpa Sherm,

he Says he's sorry

that he beat you.

Yeah? Well, If he's so sorry,

how come he never told me?

He did. He wrote you in prison,

when you were too mad at him,

that you didn't open his letter.

How'd you know that?

I know.

I'm sorry for

what I said about you,

about you just being a kid.

It's okay. I know you love me.

What are you doing here?

I had a few things to tell you.

Man...

I'm so happy to see you...

Even If this is some

kinda weird dream.

My mom, she needs

your love right now.

I'm going back to prison.

I can't do anything.

Just trust that you can.

Trust that I can do what?

That you can do anything.

What are you talking

about, Jimmy?

What are you talking about?

Just trust that

it will be there.

Trust what will be where?

I'll see you later, Uncle vi.

You have been released.

By who?

I don't know.

The watch commander

wanted me to release you.

What's going on?

Who got me out?

Lee. Remember the little punk

that used to give you

a hard time?

He came in for a pizza

and asked about you.

I told him what happened.

He seemed upset, said

he was going to talk

to his old man, the d.A.

He got you out.

All right? Let's go!

Yeah.

I'll be out in the car.

Okay.

Hi there.

I'm truly sorry.

I'm sorry for everything.

You don't have to say anything.

I had no right...

To tell you to stop

going out with roland.

Yeah.

Yeah, you didn't.

So, um...

What, what's, uh...

What's your plan?

I'm going to go to

the meetings with him.

That's good.

Yeah.

You know, I'm giving him

another chance.

I can leave If you want.

What are you going

to do, gonna live in...

I'll stay with...

in a shelter?

Oh, I'll stay with roland.

I can stay with him.

He asked me to marry him.

That's great.

Yeah.

Did you say yes?

Yeah, I didn't have an answer.

It's so soon, you know,

and this was before...

Jimmy.

Well, he'll be lucky

to have you.

Okay, what's with you?

Why the sudden change of heart?

If I told you, you

wouldn't believe it.

I don't know If I can do this.

Do what?

I don't know If I can live...

I don't know, vi. It just...

You know, just...

It just kills me, you know?

I don't know what

to do. I don't know

how to keep going, you know?

Like roland, he drives you out,

but he doesn't know what to do.

I can't take the pain.

Feels like my skin is being

ripped off my body.

Hey, come here.

I love you,

and I will do anything for you.

Thank you.

I don't know

what's happened to you,

but I know It's good.

That may be the only light

I have right now.

The rock.

He put something special

under the rock here.

What's under the rock?

The rock, It's right there

for you and my mom.

This is bull!

One more try.

Wow.

Now, will you please

take the money?

No, I don't want

your blood money.

Jimmy left it for you!

Vian, tell me where

you got the money.

I told you. Jimmy came to me,

like, in a dream but more real.

He said our father, Sherm,

Sherm left it for him.

You know dad,

he never trusted banks.

I don't know what's

going on with you,

but I don't want your money.

It's our money.

It was Jimmy's money,

and Jimmy left it for us.

I don't believe that story,

and you should be disgusted

that you made that up

about Jimmy.

I'm sorry, but It's true.

Now, will you please

take the money?

No, I won't, and I don't want

to talk about it anymore.

So, what's so important,

you couldn't tell me

over the phone?

I wanted to apologize

for coming over here drunk.

It was disrespectful,

and I'm sorry.

Great.

Is that it?

Yeah.

I mean...

I really like you, and...

I just wanted to

tell you this in person.

I really like you, too, Vian.

I just don't think

we should date anymore.

I think we're really different,

and I don't see

how it would work.

Oh.

Okay.

Well, thanks for

seeing me in person.

Yeah, of course.

Hi.

We're not open yet.

This place still for sale?

I fired you.

I know, and I deserved

to be fired. I...

I want to apologize

for being a creep

about you and my sister.

It's just I really love her,

and I think she loves you,

and I think If she has you

going to church, well...

what's wrong with church?

Well, nothing. Noth...

nothing's wrong with church.

They gave out free

snow cones last Sunday.

Oh.

I want to go to

a meetings with you.

Good.

We've been saving

a seat for you.

Here's my 15,000.

We're partners.

Yeah.

We're partners.

Yeah?

Yeah.

Hey!

How was church?

It was great.

I prayed in church

about your story,

about Jimmy in the dream.

I believe you.

My name is Vian Mclean...

And I'm the man

who killed your son.

And I'm here today

to tell you that I'm sorry,

and I will do anything

that you ask of me.

I've been praying for you.
