SINGLE ACT

Setting: Table in a canteen.

Introduction: Cesar and his two friends have a few drinks while talking animatedly.

Cesar (speaking loudly and laughing with satisfaction): I’m not a one-woman man. We men have to try options, I have my girlfriend Victoria and I date two other girls, each one in her place and all of them loving me very much.

Pedro (laughing and raising his glass): That’s how it is my friend, women for not staying alone play crazy, they prefer to pretend they don’t notice anything and continue with one.

Javier (uncomfortable with the conversation): So, for you, the one who does that is more of a man than the one who respects his partner?

César (without stopping laughing and clinking his glass with Pedro’s) Why are you going to keep only one woman happy, when you can keep many women happy? That’s for men who don’t stand up for anything, they are not faithful by conviction, my friend, but by lack of opportunities.

Pedro and Cesar laughed heartily, while Javier was getting more and more uncomfortable with the conversation.

Javier (annoyed): And what happens when someone realizes it?

Cesar: Didn’t you hear Pedro? They act crazy, women live to have a man and are capable of putting up with anything so as not to lose him.

Javier: Would Victoria put up with something like that?

While the friends were talking, a girl approaches the table, but when she hears, she hides where she can hear but they can’t see her.

Cesar (boasting): Victoria has the best man in the world, me. If she finds out I’m dating other girls, the smartest thing for her to do is to keep quiet and accept that I’m with others, as long as I don’t leave her.

Pedro (laughing): Victoria has a temper, but a woman in love accepts everything.

César (laughing even louder): That’s right my friend, if she doesn’t want to be alone, she’ll put up with it, she’s not going to find another man like me.

The girl, who is hiding, approaches the table annoyed.

Victoria (putting her hand on César’s shoulder): You are right César, I doubt that she will find another man like you, starting because you are not a man at all, you are a poor being, insecure and little thing, who needs to have many women to deceive his own manhood.

César (surprised): Victoria, my love, let me explain.

Victoria (speaking louder as if to ridicule Cesar): Explain to me what Cesar? With everything I’ve heard, it’s already more than explained. I committed the stupidity of getting entangled with a little man, childish and brainless, but I have bad news for you, in the world there are many real men, believe it or not, and maybe you have gotten with girls who do not value themselves and you have run with the luck that they feed that abnormal thinking you have.

Cesar (trying to calm her down): Victoria, you don’t need to say all that, we can talk alone.

Victoria: Alone? Don’t make me laugh Cesar, to fill your mouth you talk in public, but now that you are ridiculous you want to talk alone? I don’t have to tell you anything else, I value myself very much and a little man like you doesn’t deserve me, don’t even think of looking for me again, you’ll disappear from my life, you’re too big for me, Cesar.

Victoria turns around and leaves the place while Cesar tries to get up and Javier stops him.

Javier (smiling): Didn’t she have to hold on so as not to lose you? You looked really bad my friend, they put you in your place in public and how quickly you lost the macho posture you had, how sad.

Javier and Pedro started to laugh, while Cesar felt ashamed.
