A monologue from the play by Adam Szymkowicz
Allegra is talking to her father who is in the hospital in a coma. Allegra’s friend Suzy was going to come to the hospital with her but instead went to the movies with Allegra’s boyfriend.
Allegra knows this.
Allegra (eighteen)
And I’m working at this like group home with Suzy Harris. We hang out a lot. You know who she is? I think you’d like her. She’s a lot of fun.
She was supposed to come here with me today but . . . she couldn’t make it. Bobby’s good. He works at the garden place in Salem sometimes on the weekends.
He wishes he could be here too. He’s uh . . . a good boyfriend. I think it’ll last for us. One of the great . . . things. F***! It’s just as hard to talk to you now that you can’t talk back.
I can’t ever say the right thing to you. You’re just so . . . not there, aren’t you. You always ignore me. I know even if you can hear me right now, you’re not paying attention.
You never . . . Why don’t I matter to you? What do you want from me?!! Maybe you just want to be left alone. Well, that’s what I’ll do then.
I’m sorry I disturbed your deathbed you selfish f***ing b*stard! You self-centered, egotistical, pompous, f***ing b*stard! I don’t care what you want! I hope you die!
I hope you f***ing die real soon! You can f***ing rot and be eaten by worms! I hope f***ing worms eat you! Worms with big f***ing teeth!
And rats and flies and vultures! I hope vultures dig you up and take you out of the casket and fly away with you! You f***! (Pause.) I miss you.
I’ve always missed you. I’m sorry. I don’t want you to die. I’m sorry. I’m sorry. Oh, Christ, I’m so sorry. Please don’t die. You’re so small. Please, Daddy.
