The Law of Gravity

2 speakers. They are walking, wherever. One speaker stops.

-did you feel that?
-what?
-you didn’t feel that.
-feel what?
-it felt like…
like the earth stopped. do you ever feel that?
-…i don’t think so.
-it happens to me sometimes.
when I remember something or someone i haven’t thought about for a long time.
-huh.
what or who was it?
-huh?
-what or who did you remember?
-i don't know yet.
(silence. then. this speaker seems to cave in on herself a little…but at the same time, there is…joy. the pain is exquisite, a familiar ecstasy.)
whoa.
-what?
-i just figured it out.
(silence. her mind races to its inevitable conclusion.)
he snuck up on me again.
damn.

They exit.
