Ash

What?

Hayley

About your reason of being a lawyer

Ash

Don't know what your talking about

Hayley whispered

A time to kill movie

Matthew

Um I am still here

Ash

Sorry she was telling me something ahh here's a video I saved a long time ago of you

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4lnRK8QpC14

Mathew

Yeah I remember that movie why do you bring it up?

Ash

You are the reason I want to do law

Matthew

That was just a movie

Ash

Yet I have put people put behind bars caus they deserve it and I've saved innocent people from bars and you are the reason for that, you showed me that truth can be found in any situation, with anyone, now I had conversation when I was in year 10 with some members of the weirdo group, the reason why I say some cause hails over here had to get jabbed by needle in Canberra, any way this movie inspired me to really go against racism and that convo was about how people are still not equal in school, in town, why I saw the most racist paragraph in a science text book, and it was that movie that you starred in that helped me see truth

Matthew almost in tears

Wow you are the only person I met that I've ment so much too

Ash

Look I might know a lot about you but it's your words, your movie that has made me inspire slot of people

Matthew

Thankyou that's all I can say, my words mean so much to you it is overwhelming

Ash

You said your hero is always 10 years away

Mathew

Yeah I said that a few years ago

Ash

Well mine was always 10 million miles away and you want to know how far away he is today?

Matthew

How far?

Ash

30cm

Matthew

I'm your hero?

Ash

You are my hero, my inspiration to keep going and my idol

Matthew started crying

Hayley

And he cries

Ash

You told me to tell him

Hayley

Go on

Ash

What?

Hayley

Go and comfort him

Hayley pushed her out of her seat, Ash walked and sat next to him (even though he is only like 30cm away)

Ash wrapped her arm around him

Ash

Are you ok?

Matthew

Yes it's just I never knew that there was someone left like you

Ash

Well I'm pretty sure it's not just me

Matthew

I go somewhere and know one knows me I mean back then I walked somewhere and I needed body guards to keep people off me

Ash

Well times change and change is inevitable, you know once a great woman said the suflae isn't a suflae, the suflae is the recipe

Hayley

I never got that please tell me what it means

Ash

It means....

Matthew

It means practically that saying it's not a bout the beginning or end it's about the journey

Hayley

Still don't get it

Matthew

A person isn't the outside, they are them in the inside

Hayley

Oh

Ash

Look fame didn't make you, you, it just gave you a head start in life to put you on your feet and do the things you love

Matthew

I know I just got use to it all I miss it

Ash

Well we can take your mind off it, I mean In 3 hours we will be in Texas

Hayley

Well didn't time fly when your talkinh

So they talked on for three hours
