Scene 14

HOPE
See what happens, when people interfere with love! Poor Hermia. Her Lysander doesn’t love her anymore! All because of some little fairy interfering in what isn’t his business! My own life wouldn’t be in such shambles right now if it weren’t for that silly giggly secretary, that floozy, interfering…. (she stops)

WISDOM
I see this story is bringing a few things out in the open.

HOPE
(very solemn) Why can’t love be simple. A man & woman fall in love, they get married, and live happily ever after.

WISDOM
People grow and change. Then love becomes a choice. If people let it, love grows deeper and deeper daily.

HOPE
If people let it. Or they go astray? Is that what you are saying? Either go deeper, or risk losing your love?

WISDOM
The risk is not in losing love, but in loving more.

HOPE
I don’t understand.

WISDOM
(no reply)

HOPE
It seems that Wisdom has shown me people who interfere with love. Who are the people who interfere? Can’t we do anything about it? I can. And I’m going to find that silly little fairy and set him straight.
