The Stranger
This is the story of a teenage girl whose life was going smoothly.
Her name was Lauren and she was always on the computer.... in the daytime, after school, she was in an internet cafe' and in the evening she was at home. If she had homework from school or something to study, she was used to do everything at school or late in the night.
One day she was in the internet cafe' (sound effect of a crowded place and someone typing something at the computer. The noise of a crowd and of a door that opens and closes frequently goes throughout the story) when she signed up on a website that changed her life. That website was "FACEBOOK". While Lauren was using Facebook one of her friends entered the cafe to greet her. (Sound effect of a door opening and recorded sound effect of someone walking into a cafe)
"Hi darling are you Ok?"
"Yeah and you?"
"I'm good"
"What are you doing?"
"Oh I'm using Facebook..... I just signed in..... I think you too have to join it"
"Yeah maybe ... but not today... you know some people, and I repeat, some people spend hours studying and now I have to go home."
"Ok sweetie bye" "Go and study!"
"Bye"(sound effect of someone walking out of the cafe and a door that opening and closing)
Everyday Lauren was accumulating many friends on Facebook.
One day she received a friend's request from someone who claimed to be her friend.
She accepted the request.
He wrote her sweet things and she liked it.
"Oh this guy is so sweet! No one has ever been so nice to me!'
She believed all his words. ( There is a pause of 5 seconds: the sound of the crowd and of the door opening and shutting)
One day he decided to ask her for a date .... in his house.
Some day later Lauren's friend called her on her mobile:"Hey... how are you?"
"Fine and you?"
"So so... how I feel depends from what you'll soon tell me!"
"What's the matter?"
"You know the guy you told me about the other day?"
"Yes .... and then?"
"Someone told me ..., correct me if I'm wrong , that he offered to meet you at his house and you accepted... is it true?"
"Who told you that?"
"It doesn't matter.... I just want to know if it's true."
(no sound during these last beats)
"So?"
"Yes,... it's true."
"Are you mad? You don't even know him!"
"Well I don't think it's your business, after all I am the one who has a date!"
"Don't go, you don't really know him....what if something happens to you?...Don't go... ." She continued telling her this , Lauren always replied saying"Don't worry.... nothing will happen to me!", and at the end her friend gave in.
Lauren liked him and trusted him so much that she was determined to go.
(Recorded sound effect of outdoor sounds of traffic) The day of the date she left home in time. ( The sound of someone walking in a street followed by the sound of someone knocking at a door. Then the noise of a squeaky door opening) lauren entered the man's house and to find it was in darkness................. (recorded sound effect of someone walking in a room. Sound of the door shutting. The sound of a scream) and never came out.
