Freddie's Monologue- DRAFT

7.02am

My name is Freddie Sharp and I have a lot of secrets, I guess that's what makes me (pause) me. 

This is my girlfriend Jade. I ask myself every day why she chose me. Everything I do is for her, to protect her. It's not wrong, its love. 

This is where I live. Its a small village, nothing used to happen here, people used to feel safe and secure-but everything has changed. 

Those who are afraid don't need to be. But those who don't fear the worst are the ones are the ones that have the most to lose. That's my theory you see. 

My most important moral? Being faithful. Something I learnt from a very young age. 

My dad made me the man I am today. Watching him abandon my mum, leaving her crippled with heartbreak, I swore I would never let that happen again, to anyone that I love. 

He's the real monster, not me. 

Night shift, that's where she thinks I've been. Working hard to provide for my family. 

I do what I have to to protect her, and no one will get in my way. 

8.02am

Until tonight, I'm Freddie again, the one she loves, the one she thinks she knows.
