(A man, Dennis, finds a woman, Flo, sitting on the street he is walking down. She appears to be bleeding heavily from the torso.)

Dennis: Oh my God, are you alright? Sorry I don’t have my mobile on me, stupid I know. There’s a payphone over there, I’m just going to call an ambulance.

Flo: It’s o.k. I’m just bleeding to death.

Dennis: Yes I can see that, that’s why I need to get you some help as quick as!

Flo: No I mean I’m bleeding to death. I’m tired of living so I’ve cut myself and I’m waiting for all my blood to pour out. So there’s no need to call an ambulance just leave me be.

Dennis: Oh, right, I’m sorry.

Flo: That’s o.k. it was an easy mistake to make.

Dennis: Well I’ll be on my way then.

Flo: O.K., enjoy the rest of your day.

Dennis: Um sorry, this may seem too personal but what’s it like?

Flo: Pardon?

Dennis: You know cutting yourself.

Flo: Oh, erm, it’s o.k. it hurts at first but once the blood starts draining you get used to it.

Dennis: It’s just that I’ve been considering it myself recently so I want to know what to expect.

Flo: Well that’s all there is to it really. I do recommend it if you really feel it’s the route for you.

Dennis: Alright, that’s all; I’ll leave you to it now.

Flo: O.K. thank you, bye.

Dennis: Wait, don’t you want to at least move somewhere else? I mean this is a rather public place. Won’t you get more people like me hassling you if you stay here?

Flo: Oh yeah, good point. And I guess it is a bit selfish of me to take up this part of the road where other people who want to continue living are likely to be walking.

Dennis: Oh no it’s not selfish of you, I mean you have your reasons and I understand them. I guess it’s just more convenient for you and everyone else for you to situate yourself elsewhere. That way you can die in peace and everyone will be ignorant to it just the way you want it.
