The Little Things He Does
Episode 1
The tension in the Decker Household can be felt from the outer universe.
Melvin Sal
(Angry but holding back) Can you be a bit more reasonable, Dad?
Melvin Sal
It's not like you're selling her off to a stranger!
Steve Decker, FL's Dad
(Beyond pissed)
Steve Decker, FL's Dad
I am in no way related to you so don't be familiar with me, boy!
Alexis
(Crying while kneeling at her father's feet) Dad please... I'm begging you... accept us please!
Steve Decker, FL's Dad
(Barely looking at her straight) accept you?!!! If you wanted acceptance you would have asked for it before you eloped!
Steve Decker, FL's Dad
You've done what you wanted so what's the use of crying and begging at my doorway this early in the morning?!
Miriam Decker, FL's Mum
(Feeling helpless) Honey...
Miriam Decker, FL's Mum
(Hugs Steve's arm with tearful eyes as she looks at her kneeling daughter) What's happened has happened. Let's not hold on to old grudges and move on okay? Let them inside please so we can...
Steve Decker, FL's Dad
I never had a grudge against this bas**rd until he stole my daughter!😡
Melvin Sal
💢I love Lexi more than I love myself. I'll never hurt her!
The neighbors: he really did it, didn't he? He fooled her so completely... Is she blind to fall for such a man?
Alexis
(Hears the murmuring from the neighbors and pales)
Alexis
(Bitterly crying) Dad don't listen to them. He loves me! Melvin loves me so much, Dad! He isn't scamming me... he isn't going to leave me... Dad, trust your daughter! I've never made a wrong judgement of character!
Alexis
(Sees her younger brother in front of the crowd)😰 Mattie tell him... help me talk to Dad...
Matt Decker, FL's Brother
(Expressionless as he watches them)
Matt Decker, FL's Brother
(Looks Alexis dead in the eyes) I can't always be around to help a blind person cross the road.
Matt Decker, FL's Brother
(Leaves with a straight back)
Miriam Decker, FL's Mum
Mattie wait...(wants to chase after him but can't leave with the situation at hand)😭
Melvin Sal
(Drags Alexis up by the arm) There's no point begging, Lexi
Melvin Sal
You're father hates me and that's never going to change💢
Alexis
😰He doesn't hate you. He just doesn't like that...
Steve Decker, FL's Dad
💢Ofcourse I hate him! I hate everything about him!
Miriam Decker, FL's Mum
😰Don't say that...
Alexis
(Feels light-headed and falls)
Steve Decker, FL's Dad
(Hardens his heart against his daughter's suffering) I'll ask one last time...
Steve Decker, FL's Dad
(Expressionless) Alexis Anne Decker... are you choosing a bast*rd over your family?!💢
Neighbors: She can't possibly be that stupid, can she? She wants to give up everything for an a**h*le... such a pity to have great beauty but no brains! Tch!
Miriam Decker, FL's Mum
Steve don't do this please😭 Alexis, listen to your father, listen to Daddy okay...
Alexis
(Heart aches watching her parents hurt)
Alexis
I... I love him...😭
Steve Decker, FL's Dad
(A tear drops from his eye)
Melvin Sal
(Surprised she choose him. Holds her tighter against his chest)
Miriam Decker, FL's Mum
(Stunned expressionless)no no no no no no... ahhhh(shouts and holds her chest)
Steve Decker, FL's Dad
(With a heavy heart) you've made your choice.
Steve Decker, FL's Dad
(Speaks loudly to the neighbors) From today onwards my Decker Family has only one child, Matt Decker. I denounce any relation with Alexis Anne Decker.
Steve Decker, FL's Dad
(Looks at Alexis in Melvin's arms. His heart feels stuffy and painful) From now on... I do not have a daughter.
