A PAUSE IN THE SCENE

Take a moment

A few things to separate before deciding what this means. This is a prompt, not a verdict.

What you know

You both want the guitar. He remembers lessons with Dad. You don't remember getting them.

What you're assuming

That Dad loved him more. That taking the guitar would somehow make the difference right.

What you don't know

What those lessons meant to your brother. Whether keeping the guitar would change what you feel.
