I sat watching the two actors in the cold room i was patient and calm while they were about to **** themselves waiting to carry on My instructor then said, “I want you to ask your partner something dark, something you would never ask them in a million years” the walls went quiet and all nerves struck like a chord patient and calm disappeared after he said each of those words One of them was shaking while the other was grimacing And that's when the shaking one asked, “Have you ever thought to yourself, maybe you'd be better off not living?” The grimacing man, was now blank and white like a sheet of paper or a snowy night And the shaking man, was still shaking.
