Chess in the Park

Excerpt

MIRA

I remember your letters. You’ve been writing to him?

LANDON

When I have time.

A pause

LANDON (CONT’D)

I’ve been writing more lately, there’s not much else to do.

MIRA

What do you write about?

LANDON

I ask him how he’s doing.

MIRA

That’s it?

Landon looks up.

MIRA (CONT’D)

I thought there would’ve been more. You used to write me pages. It was so confusing, not hearing a word for hours, and then seeing one of your letters on the kitchen table. 

LANDON

I write him pages. 

MIRA

Does he respond?

A pause
