(ROMANTIC PIANO)

SS: I don't know how to say this.

GK: So you feel it too----

SS: My heart has been pounding ever since I met you and then when we were on the ferry looking back at the city, the lights, the Statue of Liberty-----.

GK: A first date and ---- I felt it was all there. Everything.

SS: I know. So much, so soon.

GK: I looked for you for years, and one computer date and there you are.

SS: You're sure?

GK: I am.

SS: Let's go to my place.

GK: You mean that?

SS: I know---- you shouldn't rush ---- but I've never been more sure of anything in my life. I love you.

GK: You're in Brooklyn, right?

SS: Yes. New Lots Avenue.

GK: Oh. Never been there.

SS: It's nice.

GK: It's way out there. Probably an hour and a half.

SS: We could grab a taxi.

GK: It's raining. Hard to get a cab.

SS: A car service?

GK: It's Saturday night. They'd all be booked.

SS: How about your place?

GK: In Montclair?

SS: We could take Jersey Transit.

GK: How about I come over to your place tomorrow?

SS: My roommate will be there. She went to Boston for the weekend, she's coming back in the morning.

GK: Do you have friends with apartments?

SS: They have roommates too. What's wrong with Montclair?

GK: My parents are home.

SS: You live with your parents???

GK: Temporarily, yes. It's normal. It's just until I finish my book.

SS: But you're ----

GK: I know. I am. But sometimes it happens that way. And you live with a roommate?

SS: My sister.

GK: Your sister???

SS: We get along really really well----

GK: How long have you lived with your sister?
