Featured Monologue – Acting Different

CASSANDRA: You act different.  Whenever we are all hanging out, you put on this macho man type act.  You donโ€™t act like you when youโ€™re in front of your friends.  I donโ€™t like it.  Why do you do that?

(beat)

You do!  You do!  You are so sweet and kind to me when we are alone together but as soon as we are chilling out with your boys, you treat me different.  You tease me like youโ€™re mocking me.

Just be you from now on because you make me feel like what we have together is a lie when you treat me like you donโ€™t even care about me, in front of your friends.

Okay???
