Cheryl's Wife Monologue
I hope nobody sees me (walks towards the grave and stares for 3 seconds)
Oh Cheryl, Cheryl, Cheryl, the name spins around in my head, I would never kill you!(kneels down) How could I let this happen to you? I should have been there to protect you. I should have been the one to get shot! Not you or Bobbi Jo! I really wanted to go to the viewing. I would’ve kissed her goodbye. People would think I’m crazy for thinking that, but I just miss her so much.
Oh that good for nothing jerk Ralph with his stupid basketball team, sooner or later, Ralph would’ve dumped Cheryl anyways and she would’ve eventually came back to me… like she always did. He was just using her, besides, why else would a guy like him date a girl like Cheryl? He only went for the cheerleaders and athletes. But I loved her for her. (gets up, takes off hat and hood, …show more content…
This pile of dirt will be keeping her away from me forever.
(looks at 2nd grave [Bobbi Jo’s grave] and frowns) And oh Bobbi Jo, she always had a smile on her face no matter what, and now, I’ll never see that cute smile ever again. They were too young, too damn young. their whole lives ahead of them, not even graduated yet.
(Turns to audience) If I ever find the SOB who did this, I swear I’ll kill him myself. Why would they think it’s me? I loved those girls! Especially Cheryl! If I did kill them, why would I have been out in the open sitting on the bridge right after it happened? Wouldn’t I have killed Nora and Ellie when they walked by as well? (sighs) (double-face palm) Why? Why? Why?!
Why did God have to let this happen… What am I saying? Even Cheryl never really cared much about religion… Always using it for wishes though… “God please let the Orioles win this game.” She’d say. “Oh God please let me pass this exam.” She’d say. I can just imagine her saying “Oh God please don’t let me die” the moment the gun was being pointed at
