A little later in the afternoon. Susan and Harry are clearing the table. They are alone again.
Harry：There's a conversation we have to finish.
Susan：What was it about?
Harry：It was about caring.
Susan：Oh?
Harry：Yes, caring. I said that it makes me feel good that you care about Michelle.
Susan：Well, I do care about Michelle.
Harry：And it makes me feel good that you care about me.
Susan：You know I do You're a … wonderful friend.
Harry：And it makes me feel good that you care about us.
Susan：Well…well, I do, Harry it's only natural that if I care about Michelle and I care about you, then I care about us.
Harry：It's Ok, Susan we had this part of the conversation2 before Michelle and her friends arrived. Now comes the good part.
Susan：Like what?
Harry：Well, assume that if you care about Michelle and you care about me and you care about us, then we can talk about us. I mean-you and me. Isn't that right?
Susan：What are you trying to say, Harry?
Harry：What I'm trying to say since this is so easy ….[He goes to the game stand and puts up some letters.] Here are ten letters that express my feelings for you.
Susan：Don't be silly, Harry.
Harry：You want a hint? It's two words.
Susan：You're making the game harder.
Harry：Can't you figure it out? Seven letters …two words … that express the feelings that I feel for you in my heart.
Susan：Harry.I get it ![She rearranges the letters to spell“marry me.”]
Harry：Well? Does that mean you'll marry me?
Susan：Is that a proposal, or are we just playing a game?
Harry：Sit down, Susan. There's something I have to ask you. [He takes a flower from the tableand gets down on one knee.] Susan, will you marry me ?
Susan：It's such an important decision.
There's so many things to talk about. There are three things that have to be done first, Harry.
Harry：Three things?
Susan：First, we have to decide where to live.
Harry：Well. that's easy. We talked about that earlier. We'll live in New York.
Susan：All right.Second, we have to talk to Michelle together about being married.
Harry：We'll do that immediately. What's the third permission.
Harry：Absolutely! But first things first.We have to go to pick up Michelle.
Susan：Oh, I'm so happy, Harry!
Harry：Not as happy as I am.
[He gives her the flower, and they embrace.]
