INT. - COLLEGE LIBRARY - A MONTH LATER, 3 P.M.
Ty watches as Gabriel walks over.
GABRIEL
Do you go to college?
TY
No.
GABRIEL
Why are you in a college library?
TY
I like reading.
GABRIEL
Would you like to come over for dinner?
TY
No.
GABRIEL
We won't hurt you.
GABRIEL
(beat)
My name is Gabriel.
TY
I know.
GABRIEL
My parents died when I was two. I don't remember them well. I lived in a Monastery until Michael adopted me and John James. I met John James at the Monastery. His parents died when he was two. His parents died in an accident. My parents got sick. Neither of us had other family. People at the Monastery took us in.
GABRIEL
(beat)
Do you have family?
Jye walks over.
GABRIEL
Please at least tell me your name.
JYE
Gabriel is the nicest person you will ever meet. You can trust him.
GABRIEL
This is Jye.
JYE
We are cousins.
GABRIEL
What's your name? Do you have family?
Michael walks over.
MICHAEL
I would like to know the answer to both those questions.
TY
I have to go.
GABRIEL
We won't hurt you.
Michael kneels facing Ty.
MICHAEL
None us of will hurt you.
Ty takes a step backwards.
MICHAEL
My name is Michael.
GABRIEL
He's the one that adopted me. He's really nice.
MICHAEL
What is your name?
Ty takes a step backwards.
GABRIEL
Don't be afraid. Please let us help you.
TY
You can’t.
MICHAEL
We can help you. I will take you.
Ty starts to cry.
TY
No! You will send me back to my father.
Ty runs off. Michael stands up. He runs in the direction Ty ran in. Gabriel and Jye run after them.
