A play/ soul mate - hot like coffee

Scene1:
They love him so much, they love the way he talks, the way he comes and goes, the way he walks, they love the way he stands and the way he sits.
billions of words are written, sung and are read in his name and because of him.
Who is he ?
who are they ?
Are you one of them ?
Am I one of them ?


He is new in the nervous small city, yesterday he was somewhere else, tomorrow he doesn't know.
more people want to meet with him, they say he is good soul, he does miracles, he can heals the great fever, he is the best adviser. You will be lucky if you meet with him, he is like smoke, is invisible, but for some he is clear, he is our friend, let me introduce him;

in a small bar in our mentioned city a voice of a wonderful woman is clear



The woman: my goodness, have you seen that one who just got in.

A woman: Where ? Who ?

The woman: There...

A woman: don't point with your finger, I know what you mean, the one with the long hair

The woman: No, the one with a real tail not a fake one.



A woman: Not a fake, a real tail, you are joking.

The woman: Iam not joking with you, I REALLY MEAN IT A REAL LONG TAIL.



A woman: I do not believe you.

The woman: Go and have a look, he is talking to the waiter, ask for more drink.

A woman: I know what you mean, the one who is in black.

The woman:Right, you can touch it if you felt like.

A woman: you lost your mind.

[A woman leaves the table, she walks very shyly to the bar, when she is close to the waiter, the stranger is just left, she couldn't see the face, she saw his back, she put her hands in her mouth trying to stop the words coming out of it]

she shouts:

A woman: my goodness, she is right, he has a Tai...

The waiter: Are you alright. Can I help you ?



[A woman, doesn't know what to do or say. She couldn't finish the word]

[she went back to where she was sitting before]

The woman: Did you see it ?

A woman: I did not see his face. Who is he ? Is he human ?

The woman: you felt like touching it ?

A woman:Do you know him ? Is he human ? What about the others, they say nothing...

The woman: Relax, they will think you lost your mind.

A woman: I am relaxed, tell me, Who is he ?

The woman: you are lucky you saw him.

A woman: What do you mean ?

The woman: you were not dreaming...

A woman: What are you saying ? You mean I am the only one who saw him ?

The woman: Yes, my dear, just you and I saw him, let us go.

A woman: wait, I am coming.
