(Chip on the computer.)

MOM’S VOICE: Chip!

…Chip!

…CHIP!

CHIP: What.

MOM’S VOICE: Come out here, dinner’s ready!

CHIP: In a sec.

MOM’S VOICE: What?

CHIP: I said, in a sec.

MOM’S VOICE: You’re gonna have to come down here, I can’t hear you.

CHIP: IN A SEC, MOM!

MOM’S VOICE: What are you doing up there anyway?

CHIP: Nothing.

MOM’S VOICE: You’re not fooling around on the computer are you?

CHIP: I don’t fool around.

MOM’S VOICE: What?

CHIP: Jesus.

MOM’S VOICE: I’m coming up there!

CHIP: I’m not hungry.

(Chip keeps typing. A knock on the door.)

MOM’S VOICE: Chip!

CHIP: Whaaat.

MOM’S VOICE: Is this door locked?

CHIP: I’m not hungry!!

MOM’S VOICE: What are you doing in there?

CHIP: None of your business!

MOM’S VOICE: Are you masturbating?

CHIP: Mom!!

MOM’S VOICE: I wouldn’t be surprised if…

CHIP: I’m hacking into Google, okay??

(Beat.)

MOM’S VOICE: I showed you how to do that years ago. Shouldn’t you be shutting down global infrastructures by now?

CHIP: I..

MOM’S VOICE. Fuckin’ disappointment. All right honey, I’ll leave your plate outside the door. Eat it before it gets cold.

(Footsteps back down stairs.)

MOM’S VOICE: Oh, and maybe you should pull up some porn. Be a teenager for Christ’s sake.

(Footsteps continue. Chip opens the door and takes a plate of mac and cheese.)

About playfix

I'm Elijah, and I like drinking other peoples' milkshakes, being there in two shakes of a lamb's tail, being ready for my close-up, abiding, only getting flesh wounds, preparing to die, making friends with the wrong sort, waking up every day in Punxsutawney, phoning home, loving the heart-shaped birthmark on her neck, crawling through a river of shit, having a problem, flying, showing you the money, being completed by you, being a nosy fellow, making an offer you can't refuse, getting my life changed by this one song, twisting and shouting, picking the wrong week to quit ____, sapping all of your precious bodily fluids, being Sparta, loving Jenny, yelling for Adrian, calling for Stella, and being your father.
