Beloved Page #5
SETHE:
Nothing ever does. That's why I had to
get my children out. No matter what.
That's why you can never go there.
DENVER:
You never tell me all what happened. Just
that they whipped you and you run off
pregnant with me.
SETHE:
You don't need to know nothing else.
DENVER:
(nods)
I saw a white dress kneeling next to you
when you was praying.
SETHE:
White? Maybe it was my bedding dress.
Describe it to me.
DENVER:
Had a high neck. Whole mess of buttons
coming down the back.
SETHE:
Buttons. Well, that's not my bedding
dress. I never had a button on nothing.
What else?
DENVER:
A bunch at the back. On the sit down
part.
SETHE:
A bustle?
DENVER:
I don't know what it's called.
SETHE:
You say it was holding on to me. How?
DENVER:
Kneeling next to you while you were
praying. I mean, talking. It looked just
like you.
SETHE:
Well, I'll be.
DENVER:
I think it was a sign. I think maybe
baby's got plans.
SETHE:
What plans?
DENVER:
I don't know, but that dress holding onto
you got to mean something.
SETHE:
Maybe. Maybe it does.
Sethe smiles sympathetically for her lonely child. They hear
a sound in the house - floor boards creaking.
DENVER:
She's crawling again.
Sethe nods and holds her daughter's hand as they listen.

EXT. 124 BLUESTONE ROAD - DAY.
C.U. - PAUL D. GARNER.
Paul stands on the road, gazing up at the house. Grateful
he's arrived, cautious about what he'll find, he steps
towards the porch. His clothes are ragged. His feet sore and
blistering in his shoes.
