Welcome to a brand new series where the scriptwriters explore spontaneity, team work and the joy of writing!
In this series, we literally complete each other's sentences, over the course of this series we will be exploring multiple prompts and will be taking a shot at each other's pieces. Every piece has an element of each scriptwriter at The Society For Visual Cultures. The idea is to bring together vomit drafts of our talented team and turn it into one masterpiece for our future productions.
So you the readers might just be getting an exclusive peek into what our future productions may entail
Presenting our first piece:
We never said goodbye, we just stopped saying hello!
I prefer my routine – waking up, as challenging as it may be, and following the same mundane path.
Meeting the same uninteresting people that I will ignore for the rest of my life. I will greet them and
move on. But one day, they weren't there to shake my hand anymore, weren't there to give me a
nod as we passed by. They weren't important to me; I may forget about them soon enough.
It'll be just one less person to ask how they are doing, but that leaves one greeting rotting inside of me.
We never said goodbye; we just stopped saying hello. In the blink of a second, time surpasses me,
walking side by side, yet can't even look you in the eye.
We stopped saying hello. Maybe I should "happy birthday" my way back into your life, but you've
changed so much now. I no longer recognize who this lingering love is for – is it for what might be,
or for what was? Who knows, but I wish you had at least given me the chance to say goodbye before
you stopped saying hello.
And one day, we didn't walk side by side anymore. We saw each other and turned away, hiding from
each other's glances. We sat in the same class yet were no longer partners in sorrow or happiness.
We stopped looking at each other's directions. Our paths no longer collide.
We never said goodbye; we just stopped trying to say hello.
