Informations
Two
Early September.
Itâs raining outside.
A different accessible apartment. In Jersey City, New Jersey. A largely empty one, in transition and under-loved.
A woman enters. Ani.
She is in a wheelchair. Severe incomplete spinal cord injury.
Quadriplegic. Though some of the fingers of one hand are partially functioning.
Ani is a woman whose world has not extended very far beyond North Jersey and just you try to say something to her and watch what happens. She has her own ways and she is fine with those ways and those that do not agree donât need to stick aroundâas many havenât. She can seem brusque or intense to some people. A cat that resists being pet. Until it wants to be.
Eddie enters with her, holding an umbrella over her. Then remembers the umbrella:
EDDIE
Oh shit.
Bad luck.
(Eddie closes the umbrella. Sets it aside.
Their interactions used to have ease. Eddie muscles it now.)
So this is yer new âŠ
(He is surprised at the place. Takes it in.)
Ani.
You need to get some color in here. (The worst) This beige? No. Feel like Iâm walkin into a paper bag. You could get some kinda yellow in here. Some baby blue, some yellow. Good for emotions. I read that. Itâs therapy. Colors work on yer feelings. Blueâs for stress, likeârelief. Redâs for passion. And yellow I dunno but itâs yellow.
Ask yer nurses. Watch. Theyâll tell you. Shitâs science.
ANI
(Bone dry) I thought Iâd try yoga.
Fer my emotions.
EDDIE
⊠Can you // doâ?
ANI
NO.
EDDIE
Okay.
(He looks around for something helpful to do.)
ANI
Whatâre you doin // hereâ?
EDDIE
(Looking for tasks) OkayOkayOkay. Pillow! Got yer pillow here.
(He tries to put it somewhere behind her head or back. Sees sheâs strapped in all over âŠ)
Iâma just fluff THAT.
(⊠Fluffs and sets the pillow aside.)
Okay. Blanket. Just blanket you with THAT.
(He tucks a blanket around her chair.)
You lose weight?
âŠ
I will punch myself later for that. On yer behalf.
OrâYâknow what:
(He takes her paralyzed arm.
Sheâs confused at whatâs going on at first but has no control over it.
Oh no. Is he really doing this?
He is. Heâs really doing this. She canât believe heâs doing this.
He punches himself with her paralyzed hand.
She doesnât look happy.
He sees her face, not looking happy.
And he awkwardly puts her hand back down by her side.)
ANI
The fuck is wrong // with you?
EDDIE
I donât know.
ANI
Strap it back in!
EDDIE
Sorry sorry.
(He straps her wrist back on the arm of the chair.)
ANI
Flatten it out.
EDDIE
What?
ANI
My fingers, you gottaâFlatten // o...
