hello from the past dramashorts

Hello from the future! That's a great start to a story or a scene. I can already feel the tension and nostalgia. What happens next? Here are a few ways that line could play out in a short drama: Option 1 (Sci-Fi/Time Travel): A woman stares at a man she hasn't seen in years. He looks exactly the same as the day he vanished. MAN: Hello from the past, dramashorts. WOMAN: (Whispering) That's impossible. You died in 2034. MAN: I did. Thats why Im here. To stop it from happening to you. Option 2 (A Bitter Reunion): Two old friends meet at a bus stop after a decade of silence. One looks worn, the other successful. WORN FRIEND: (With a sad, ironic smile) Hello from the past, dramashorts. Remember when we said wed conquer the world from this bus stop? SUCCESSFUL FRIEND: (Avoiding eye contact) We were kids. We said a lot of things. WORN FRIEND: Yeah. Including "I'll never leave you behind." Option 3 (The Ghost of a Relationship): A phone rings. A girl answers, knowing who it is. The line is silent for a moment. VOICE ON THE PHONE: (Soft, familiar) Hello from the past, dramashorts. GIRL: (Her voice catching) You shouldn't be calling this number. VOICE: I know. But I had to hear your voice one more time before... well. Hello goodbye. Would you like me to continue one of these, or do you have a specific story in mind for that "hello"?
