INT. SARAH'S APARTMENT - NIGHT

The phone rings three times. SARAH (28) stares at the screen:
"Dad". She answers.

SARAH
(quietly)
Hey. It's me.

SILENCE. Then:

FATHER (V.O.)
I know. I've been waiting.

Sarah closes her eyes.

SARAH
I found mom's journals. I read them.
All of them.

Another pause.

FATHER (V.O.)
I was going to tell you. I just...
I didn't know how.

SARAH
(voice breaking)
When were you going to tell me she
wrote to you every week for fifteen years
and you never once wrote back?
