A few friends are reminiscing about their high school days and just acting as they did before they left to their respective lives of college, university and work.
It’s just a play or script of some people having fun during one summer after several years of being apart and nothing really has changed.

Ethan, Mia and Karen drive to Damija, a neighbourhood in Kuala Lumpur, to smoke grass. When they arrive, Leah gets in the car. They all share a spliff and reminisce, drunkenly.

[Ethan is sat in the driver's seat of his car, sorting out a small handful of weed on a piece of paper. He keeps looking up from his pile a few times]

Ethan

Could somebody get in my car?

[A short pause]

Ethan

I don’t want to be alone.

[Karen enters, into the backseat]

Karen

What are we doing?

Ethan

If I ask you to do a huge favour for me, will you do it?

[A long pause]

Karen

Depends. Why do you ask so strangely?

Ethan

Will you just chai this for me?

Karen

Chai?

[Mia enters]

Ethan

Yeah…please.

Karen

Chai it…yeah…

Mia

I have tobacco.

Ethan

Oh, what tobacco is it?

Karen & Mia

Golden Virginia.

Mia

Golden Vag! [Laughs]

Karen

So what are we doing?

Ethan

We’re waiting for Leah so she can follow us when we drive to Damija and then we’ll have a smoke there.

Mia

This is…interesting music.

[Karen laughs]

Mia

No, I was being serious. [Laughs]

Karen

So was I!

[Both Karen and Mia laugh]

Ethan

Car, you lost so much of weight, you look great!

Karen

SHUT UP! [Pause] But thank you.

[Mia laughs at Karen]

Ethan

Okay, Leah’s behind in her car. We can go now.

They all drive to Damija neighbourhood. Now Ethan has rolled the spliff.

Ethan

[Lights the joint]

Have you tried a blueberry one before?

Karen

I’m not too sure what you’re…well, saying to me!

Ethan

It has a blueberry taste. Quite nice!

Karen

That’s great.

[Receives joint from Ethan]

Cheers.

Mia

I really like flavoured papers. Car?

Karen

Yeah…?

Mia

Do you have a spare hair tie I can borrow? Just for tonight.

Karen

Um…yeah you can use it. I got my sticks.

[Karen passes Mia the band and joint]

Mia

Thank you! Yeah, the sticks look cool!

[Everyone is quiet for a few seconds]

Mia

Car, I’m so drunk! I feel ill…

[Passes the joint to Ethan)

Karen

Don't think that you'll be sick. Just don't think of it.

[Low moaning from Mia)

Karen

DON'T!

Ethan

Mia?

[Mia keeps moaning]

Mia?

[Pause]

Mia?

Mia

…what!?

Ethan

If you could just tell me if you really feel like you need to be sick I can wind down the back window for you.
