Scene 1.
(Class is dismissed, everyone is leaving the classroom. Manuel turns around suddenly, grazes Addie's shoulder awkwardly to get her attention—unnecessarily because she's always attentive of him.)
Manuel: Hey Addie, what do you say, er, I mean, would you like to go to the prom with me?
(Addie freezes in place and opens her mouth and her eyes to their full capacities in super-slow-motion. A moment of pure silence.)
Addie: Whoa.
Manuel: 'Whoa' as in <em>yes</em> or 'Whoa' as in <em>no</em>?
Addie: (Forcing herself to act cool all of a sudden) 'Whoa' as in <em>sure</em>.
