My Girl 2 Page #20

HARRY:

I'm sorry I couldn't come pick you up honey.

SHELLY:

I was pushing as fast as I could.

VADA:

Did it hurt a lot?

SHELLY:

You have no idea.

BABY:

WAAAAAAAAAAH!!!

SHELLY:

Shhhh.

VADA:

Let me hold him.

SHELLY:

O.K.

Vada gently takes the baby from Shelly's arms

SHELLY:

Maybe he's wet?

HARRY:

Maybe he's hungry.

VADA:

He's okay...you just have to sing to him.

"Smile though your heart is aching,

Smile, even though it's breaking,

Although a tear may be ever so near,

That's the time you must keep on trying,

Smile, what's the use of crying,

You'll find that life is still worthwhile,

If you just smile."

OUTSIDE, HARRY SHELLY VADA AND BABY (IN PRAM)

ARE TAKING A WALK

VADA'S THOUGHTS

Things haven't exactly calmed down around

here, I got an A+ on the report, Dad's getting

used to my pierced ears and Nick's coming to

visit this summer. Other than that I'm busy

being a big sister. I'd like to tell my

brother about my mom, how I got to meet her

friends and find out how special she was, I

mean...she may not have her footprints in

cement but she definitely left her imprint on

the world...and I told them that even though

it sounds conceited...her greatest achievement

was me.

Vada, Harry, Shelly and the baby cross the road and walk

off down the sidewalk as the camera rises and the song "My

Girl" begins to play and the credits roll
