Blog #9 - Dialogue for Relationships with Characters

(Hayley's voice can be heard from in the trees, but she is not seen.)
HAYLEY
What are you doing?!

(Andrew stops with a very suprised look on his face. He did not expect to hear someone's voice while out coollecting food for his family. He begins looking all around and sees Hayley jump out of a tree wearing oversized clothing and the hood of her sweatshirt is pulled over her head so that one cannot see her face.)
ANDREW
Hayley Smith? Is that you? What are you doing out here? I haven't seen you in forever! (He gives a friendly smile)

HAYLEY
Yeah! Hey Andrew! I haven't seen you since middle school! We used to be such good friends! Its been a while. I didn't know you guys lived out here. Didn't you used to live on the street behind my house?
ANDREW
Yeah. We moved out of there a few years ago. Ever since my dad lost his job it's been really hard. Now our only source of income is whatever my mom gets while working at the diner four nights a week. It's been kinda hard but we make it work and I love it here in the woods in our small cabin home. Everything is so much easier. What are you doing out here? We usually don't see anyone in these woods.

HAYLEY
 I'm sorry about your dad. Thats gotta be hard. But me...I'm just...ummm...on a camping trip. I forgot a lot of my stuff at home that I need, but I'm doing alright so far.

ANDREW
Do you need anything else? Our house is right ove that hill if you want something.

HAYLEY
Thanks. I might take you up on that later.
