I can see that now.
little note, I can't write just simple things. So this turned into something a lot longer. But I can tell ya, a lot more heart
SCENE:
[Ephram is in the garage, writing some notes...Delia walks in]
DELIA: Hey, what's up?
EPHRAM: Oh, uhh, Chopin?
DELIA: Shopping? Ephram, you don't shop?
EPHRAM: [laughing] It's Chopin...a pianist and one who I'm failing at.
DELIA: Then why are you doing it if you're you're failing at it?"
EPHRAM: Because someday, hopefully soon, I will get better at it and hopefully master it. Like you wanted to get really great at Hockey and you practiced until you got better at it. Same thing...sorta.
DELIA: Okay. [she continues sitting there, silently, beside him]
EPHRAM: [he grins]. Is there something you want?
DELIA: I do have a question.
EPHRAM: [setting his music on the table] What's up?
DELIA: How did you feel when you were ready to have sex with Madison?
EPHRAM: [stuttering] ...Umm...well...why do you want to know?
DELIA: I heard some girls talking in the hallway at school about knowing that he was ready to have sex. I want to know, how did you know you were ready?
Without uttering a word, Ephram got up and walked in the house.
EPHRAM: NINA!?
DELIA: They're gone, parent-teacher conference with Sam.
EPHRAM: Great. Can't you wait until Nina gets back? She's much better at this stuff than I am, since you're a...umm...
DELIA: Girl.
EPHRAM: Yeah, that. I think she'd be better, don't you think?
DELIA: But what do you think, since you're closer to my age than dad is and Nina.
Ephram sighed mumbled a few words and took Delia into the kitchen, they sat at the table.
EPHRAM: I wasn't ready to be with Madison. I can't explain it to you, but it's something you feel in your heart. It's something that no one else can feel for you. And I had an opporutnity and I took it. And there's something you should know. Once sex happens, for the first time, you can't ever get it back. It's special and it always should be especially when it's with the right person.
DELIA: Then you're saying Madison wasn't special?
EPHRAM: [entwinging his fingers] Not as special as it could've been.
DELIA: Like with Amy?
EPHRAM: [slightly choked] You know what Amy and I did?
EPHRAM: Not really, but I kind of put it together overtime. Well, just now really. You were happier, you talked to her more, you smiled more. It made you happy. And you talking about it being special just put the ideas there. Was it that perfect moment for you and Amy?
EPHRAM: [smiling] Yeah, as close to perfect as one can get.
DELIA: Good. [she got up and walked away]
EPHRAM: So did you still want to talk to Nina? I can leave her a note.
DEILA: No you pretty much answered my questions. Thanks, Ephram.
Ephram grabbed a soda out of the fridge as he heard the door open. The family was home. Andy came into the kitchen.
ANDY: Ephram, I thought you would be in the studio today?
EPHRAM: [holds up the can] Thirsty.
ANDY: How did everything go?
EPHRAM: Great...perfect.
ANDY: Anything happen while we were gone?
EPHRAM: Not much, I just gave Delia her first sex talk, other than that, it was pretty quiet around here.
ANDY stood in the kitchen, processing Ephram's words.
ANDY: What did you do?
EPHRAM: Delia had some questions and I answered them. Nina wasn't here, you weren't here, she wanted to know.
ANDY: What did you tell her?
EPHRAM: That waiting makes everything a lot easier.
