Context
Anna left her husband, Paul, one year ago and relocated to New York. She did not give him any warning, or tell him where she was going. Paul has finally tracked her down, with the help of their friend, Alex. He desperately wants to know the real reason behind why she really left, but Anna is being frustratingly vague. She is determined to protect her new life, and is reluctant to reveal too much about her decision to end their marriage.

ANNA I know you don’t want to hear it, Paul, but I am sorry. About the way I left. But it was almost a year ago at this point.
PAUL Which makes it okay?
ANNA No. But it makes it a long time ago.
PAUL It’s not that long, Anna. We were together a lot longer than that.
ANNA And I said I’m sorry.
PAUL You just want to disturb those neighbors, don’t you.
ANNA Did you just come here to yell at me?
PAUL No. But now that I’m here, it’s kind of all I want to do.
Anna nods.
A beat.
PAUL I’m sorry.
