A Mother's Worst Nightmare Scene 1 (Lights come up and you see a girl in the kitchen making sandwiches)
Rayne Joshua, get in here and take your sandwich. I’m already late to school and I have to walk you. (a little boy about 7 years old walks in)
Josh Ok ok I’m here. And why do you have to walk me. I can walk myself. I’m in the first grade you know.
Rayne And that’s exactly why I have to walk you. Also because mom said I have to.
Josh Where is mommy anyway?
Rayne I don’t know. Like she’s ever home. Now c’mon.
Josh You do know where she is. I hear you guys yelling at each other everyday.
Rayne You should learn how to mind your business. Lets go! (she puts the sandwiches in his bad and the bell rings) Who in the world… (she opens the door and a drunk woman wearing a very tight short skirt and a tight shirt being held by a man)
Rayne Oh my god not again!
Mr. Edwards She was asleep on our doorstep. I think she belongs to you.
Mom I don’t belong to no one! I belong to all the blazing men out there. Whooo! (she starts laughing crazily)
Josh Rayne…what’s wrong with mommy?
Rayne I’m sorry about this Mr. Edwards. Thank you so much.
Mom He ain’t do nothing but drag my skank ass back over to this pig sty. (she slams her wine bottle on the glass counter and it breaks and Josh screams)
Mr. Edwards I think I’ll take Josh to school for you Rayne. C’mon Josh. (they leave and Rayne slams the door)
Rayne C’mon mom. I’m taking you upstairs. You need to sleep. (she tries to grab her mom’s arm to help her but she pulls away)
Mom I don’t need your help. I can do it by myself. (she tries walking but she falls)
Rayne Mom, let me just help you please. (her mom stands up)
Mom I said I don’t need your help. Now you want to help me? What happened yesterday when I asked you for a pack of cigarettes? Huh?
Rayne You were already high and drunk at the same time! You think I like seeing you like this. Running around town. Having guys run a train on you!
Mom Yeah and you should be more like your mother.
Rayne Yeah…when pigs fly! Why would I want to be like you? All you do is get drunk, smoke, and… (her mom smacks her)
Mom Don’t you DARE talk to me like that! You little witch, you better learn how to be the whore that I taught you to be. Now I’m going to bed. You can take your dumb ass to school. Not like anything gets through that thick head of yours. (she walks out of the kitchen and Rayne sits down on a chair and cries)
Rayne Why me God? Why put me on this Earth to suffer?
BLACKOUT
Scene 2 (lights come up and you see the mom in her bedroom getting ready to go to sleep)
Mom Calling me drunk. I’ll show her. How dare she. And I tried to bring her up to be just like me – the best whore in town. Ain’t no life better. But she’ll learn. Oh that little….wait till I wake up. I’ll show her never to talk to me like that… (she falls asleep instantly)
BLACKOUT
Scene 3 (lights come up and you see Rayne holding hands with a boy and another girl walking with them)
Rayne And then she starts yelling at me for trying to help her. And then she has the nerve to hit me.
Yardley She hit you?
Chelsea Oh snap! You serious?
Rayne Yeah. I didn’t even want to come to school today.
Yardley It’ll be ok baby. (he kisses her on the cheek)
Rayne Thanks
Chelsea Oh, he is fine. I’ll be back (she goes off and starts talking to a boy)
Rayne You know what Yardley, I don’t even want to go back home with her there. I seriously can’t take it anymore.
Yardley Oh c’mon Rayne. No matter what happens…
Rayne Don’t even say “I still love her” because I don’t. Don’t look at me like that because if you had a mother like that, you wouldn’t either. Always coming home smelling like…I don’t even know what she smells like. That’s how bad it is. And then she wants me to be like her? HA! Like that’s ever gonna happen.
Yardley Calm down Rayne. People are starting to stare. You know, you can always chill with us. It’s just me and my ma anyway.
Rayne What are the odds that she’d let me live with ya’ll? (a bell rings)
Yardley Yo, I gotta get to me. So I’ll meet you after school then. I’ll help you get your stuff.
Rayne Thanks so much baby. (they kiss and as Rayne walks away, two boys come up to Yardley)
Kevin Did I hear you right man, she really gon’ be living with you?
Yardley Yeah man. I got her all to myself.
Eddie Dang man, and she is fine as…
Kevin I know…I could just…
Yardley Now watch it, she might be fine but she’s still mines. I got plans for that…if you know what I mean. (he walks away)

Scene 4 (lights come up in a room and Rayne, Yardley, and his mom are in the room)
Rayne Thanks for letting me stay where for a while Mrs. Smith.
Mrs. Smith It’s ok Rayne and call me Bonita. You can stay here for as long as you like. It’s not a problem. Yardley, you can help her unpack. I need some sleep before work tonight. (she leaves)
Rayne Thank you so much for talking your mother into it Yardley.
Yardley It wasn’t hard. She’s in love with you. (they both laugh and Rayne’s phone rings)
Rayne Hello.
Chelsea How dare you Rayne. I’m your best friend and you didn’t tell me you were living with Yardley.
Rayne Oh gosh Chels. Who told you?
Chelsea Well, Kevin told Devon who told his girl Latoya who told her sister Raven who told that fine boy in the hallway, Jaylin who told me.
Rayne Damn girl! So practically, the whole school know huh?
Chelsea Yup. So how is it living with one of the cutest boys in school?
Yardley I’ll be back Ray.
Rayne Mhm mmm. (he leaves)
Chelsea I can’t your mom let you sleep in the same house as your boyfriend. My mom would flip if I was living with…well if I had a man…she’d flip.
Rayne First of all, my mom don’t know cause, as usual, she wasn’t even home when I got there. And second, it’s not like we’re doing anything.
Chelsea Uh-huh, what ever ya lil’ nasty.
Rayne Ha ha ha Chels. Hey, I gotta go finish unpacking. I’ll talk to you later.
Chelsea Ok bye and remember don’t do anything…without telling me first. (they laugh)
Rayne Whatever. Bye. (she hangs up the phone and Yardley walks back in and closes the door)
Yardley Hey baby. Done yet?
Rayne No. Just got off with Chelsea. Evidently, the whole school knows I’m living with you now.
Yardley Well that’s not a bad thing is it? (he wraps his arms around her from behind her)
Rayne No…stop Yardley.
Yardley It’s ok Rayne. Mom’s sleep. (he starts kissing her on her cheek)
Rayne (giggles) C’mon Yardley. I have to finish unpacking.
Yardley You’re living here. You have all the time to unpack. But you only have once for this... (they start to kiss and…)
BLACKOUT
Scene 5 (lights come up and you see Rayne and Chelsea sitting on Chelsea’s bed talking)
Chelsea You…did…WHAT? I told you…ya lil’ nasty!
Rayne It’s not funny Chels. I…I didn’t mean to. It just happened.
Chelsea I don’t think that that just happens. You have to do all the lil’ nasty’s and then…
Rayne I get the point Chelsea. But I didn’t mean to. Oh gosh…imagine if Yardley’s mom found out.
Chelsea She’d probably kick you out and then whip his…oh my gosh…imagine if your mom found out.
Rayne Oh please Chels. She’d be proud. I could just hear her now “oh now you’re a real whore”.
Chelsea Don’t say that.
Rayne Well it’s true. She doesn’t give a damn about me.
Chelsea Well we need to worry about you know. I mean…you could be…
Rayne Pregnant I know. I’ve got to get to the hospital…somehow.
Chelsea You have to wait a while though. Oh snap…if you have a baby, can I be the godmother?
Rayne Are you serious?
BLACKOUT
Scene 6 (lights come up and Yardley, Chelsea, and Rayne are sitting in Rayne’s room at Yardley’s house)
Yardley What’s this all about?
Rayne We need to talk.
Yardley That’s four words. That’s not good. What did I do now? I mean…didn’t you enjoy…
Rayne Eww. Yeah, about that, two words: I’m pregnant.
Yardley Yeah, and I partied with Beyonce yesterday.
Chelsea You did? Is she nice?
Rayne Chels. He was playing. He doesn’t know Beyonce.
Chelsea Hello Ray, then why was he partying with her? Duhh…
Rayne Anyway, Yardley, it’s not a joke. I’m pregnant.
Yardley What do you mean you’re pregnant?
Chelsea Well you know, it’s what happens when two people get together…
Yardley Chelsea, shut up!
Rayne Remember that night, when I first came here? And I told you to stop when you started kissing me…
Yardley You’re telling me that that little thing got you a baby? Whatever.
Rayne It’s not whatever, because it’s your problem too.
Yardley No, it’s not. You’re the one with the baby, it’s living in you, so I have nothing to do with it. I didn’t put that damn baby in there so you and it can go back to your whore mother. I’m sure she’ll be proud of you.
Rayne Don’t you dare bring my mother in this. How dare you. You gave me this damn baby so you’re taking care of it.
Yardley That’ll be the last thing I ever do. You know what, why don’t you just leave now? Because I don’t want anything to do with you or that baby.
Rayne You little… (she raises her hand to hit him but he grabs her throat)
Yardley Hit me, and I’ll knock that baby out of you…
Chelsea Yardley…
Yardley Shut up. Now, you ain’t gon tell no one about that damn baby because you’re going to get and abortion, if not, don’t even come next to me with it because “it’s not mines”. And if you do tell someone, you and that baby will regret it. (he walks out)
Chelsea Ray, are you ok?
Rayne (crying) Do I look ok? Oh God, what am I gonna do?
BLACKOUT

Scene 7 (lights come up and you see Rayne and Chelsea outside of a big building)
Chelsea Are you sure about this Rayne? How about what Yardley said?
Rayne You think I’m just going to sit and watch him go about his life while I’m carrying a baby and going through all the hard stuff? I don’t think so! Chelsea Why not just get an abortion?
Rayne So you’re saying I should just kill my baby?
Chelsea Well if you say it like that…
Rayne Well if he’s not going to care for this baby, and then threaten to hurt us, then I’m not going to take any chances of him doing that. So the best thing to do is to…
Yardley Go to the cops? (they turn around and see Yardley) Didn’t I tell you not to tell anybody?
Chelsea You can’t just boss her around like that. She has a right just like you do.
Yardley Why don’t you just mind your business! This is between me, and the whore over here.
Rayne Don’t call me a whore Yardley.
Yardley Or what?
Chelsea What has gotten into you Yardley?
Rayne Chels, I think you better leave.
Chelsea And leave you here?
Rayne Don’t worry about me…
Chelsea But…
Yardley Just leave.
Chelsea Fine. Rayne, I’ll see you later. Be careful. (she stares at Yardley as she leaves)
Rayne What do you want Yardley?
Yardley I want you, to leave. Now!
Rayne And you are who to tell me what to do?
Yardley Rayne, listen. You don’t wanna go in there.
Rayne Why not? Just give me one good reason. You made this baby and you gotta help take care of it. Then you have the nerve to threaten me. This is your baby…
Yardley That thing in there is NOT mines. I don’t know you who think you trying to play.
Rayne Whatever. Bye Yardley (she turns around to go in the building but Yardley grabs her and turns her around)
Yardley You’re not going in there.
Rayne (pulls away from him) I can do whatever I want.
Yardley (pulls out a gun) No, you can’t.
Rayne What the hell is wrong with you.
Yardley You. That’s what’s wrong with me.
Rayne Whatever Yardley, don’t be stupid. Either you help with the baby…
Yardley Which will never happen.
Rayne Fine then. Bye. (she turns back around but Yardley grabs her)
Rayne Let go of me.
Yardley No!
Rayne Yardley, please, stop! (Yardley raises the gun but Rayne tries to grab it from her. As they fight over it, someone pulls the trigger, it fires, and they both scream. Yardley jumps back but Rayne falls to the floor, holding her stomach)
Yardley Rayne? Ray? (Rayne is still on the floor crying) No…no no no. This is not happening! Rayne…Rayne… (he hears voices around the corner, hesitates, then runs. Rayne stays on the floor panting and bleeding then, she dies. In a while, a woman and a man come around the corner; both drunk)
Mom And then, she ran away. Isn’t that funny.
Jason If you say so. (they both laugh maniacally and drink from a bottle)
Mom So, where are we going tonight?
Jason Well, I was thinking, since your daughter left…
Mom She’s not my daughter…
Jason Yeah, anyway, since she left, we can go to your…
Mom What’s that?
Jason More like who’s that?
Mom Is that… (she runs up to the body) Oh my God, Jason, it’s Rayne…she’s…she’s…dead. (the man runs up next to her)
Jason What do you mean? Are you sure?
Mom WHAT DO YOU MEAN AM I SURE? Don’t you think I know my daughter? Oh my God, what did I do? Please (starts to cry) please don’t let my baby die. Please God, please…
Jason Is she pregnant? And she’s shot…
Mom SHUT UP! Shut up please…she’s not dead…she’s not…
Rayne Mom…mom…it’s ok. (the mom opens her eyes but still sees Rayne on the floor)
Mom Rayne…
Rayne Yes mom it’s me… (her mom looks up but everything goes white)
BLACKOUT

Scene 8 (lights comes up and you see Rayne, still dressed him her school clothes, trying to wake up her mom)
Rayne Mom…it’s me…wake up. It’s just a dream.
Mom Oh my God…Rayne…you’re alive. Oh my…thank goodness.
Rayne What? Mom are you ok?
Mom You…were pregnant…and dead.
Rayne What? It was just a dream mom. It’s fine. I’m right here. It’ll be ok.
Mom Rayne. Oh I’m so sorry Rayne.
Rayne For what mom?
Mom For everything (starts to cry) I’m sorry for treating you the way I do. I’m sorry for coming home drunk everyday…
Rayne Mom it’s…
Mom No Rayne. It’s not ok. I’m the mom in this family and it’s my job to keep all of you safe and I’m coming home drunk and smelling like I’ve just been through hell. And I even hit you.
Rayne Well…
Mom I promise, from now on, Rayne, I’ll try my best to be the mom that you want. I hope that you will forgive me for everything. I swear Rayne, that I’ll try.
Rayne I forgive you mom.
Mom I love you Rayne
Rayne Love you too mom. (they hug)
Mom Alright. Now, get to school, and I’ll see you later.
Rayne Ok, bye. (they hug again and Rayne leaves the room)
Mom Thank you God.
