Tina.

I don’t want to come for a meeting.

Manager: I think something’s wrong with Paul. His works contain so many errors. Do you know
what’s happening?

Ashley: I don’t know sir. Recently, he’s always late for work, weekly meetings got delayed, and the
rest just wouldn’t want to work with him.

Manager: Is that so? Never mind, we have a meeting today .Maybe we can ask him about this matter

Ashley: Hey Paul. What’s up?

Paul: Oh hey Ashley. *looks sad

Ashley: Why do you look so down? Anything I can help you with?

Paul: Can I ask you something?

Ashley: Sure Paul.

Paul: Do you think I’m weird?

Ashley: Of course not! Why did you say so?

Paul: Well, I think everyone’s avoiding me. I’m tried to be nice to them but I don’ understand why
they try to sabotage me...I had informing them about their work, a meeting..But all of them do not
give any cooperation at all.

Ashley: (*silent)

Paul: What should I do? Is there anything wrong about me?

Ashley: There is nothing wrong about you...but, some of our colleague said that you are weird...or
maybe a gay...

Paul: What? I just can’t believe they thought I’m gay. Even though I’m different than others man but
that doesn’t mean I’m gay. So, what should I do?

Ashley: Actually, you should change a little bit of your appearance. But, the main thing is our
colleague...how you want to convince them that you are change?

Paul: I don’t know...maybe I tell them that i had changed.

Ashley: How about we ask mdm. Catherine?

Paul: The counsellor? Why?

Ashley: Yes the counsellor. I think she can help solve your problem. *smiles

Part 3
 Scene 1- Counsellor room

*Both Paul and Ashley walk into the counsellor’s office.

Both: Good morning Mdm.

Mdm. C: Good morning. (*smiles) May I help you guys?

Ashley: We need your help Mdm.

Paul: Yes...it is about me. My colleagues are avoiding me. They thought I am gay...just because my
style is different, they try to sabotage my work...I can change, but what can I do to make them
understand my situation?

Mdm. C: You see, as a professional, I can consult you and guide you through this. But you yourself
have to change the way you appeal to others. It’s important to you and to others as well. They need
to feel comfortable around you so that all of you can work harmoniously. Alright?..I suggest gather
all employees to know the problems itself and give an advice. We should know also what their
problems also, right?

Ashley: Yeah Paul, I can help you along the way.

Paul: (*unsure) I guess.

Mdm. C: Don’t be sad Paul. This is for your own good. It is necessary to know the reason before we
have to cure it.

Paul: Alright Mdm. Thank you so much.

  Scene 2-Meeting Room
Mdm. Catherine: Good day everyone.

Everyone: Good day.

Mike: What’s the occasion Madam?

George: Yeah, this has got to do with something interesting. *laughs

Mdm. Catherine: Quiet now. I need your honest opinion on Paul. He seemed very down these days.
His works are all in clutter. Do you have any problem working with him? I had been told that you
guys have been avoiding him lately.

George: Well, he makes me uncomfortable. Enough said.

Mike: Yeah sir. He likes to touch us. It gives me goose bumps anytime he’s around me.

George: I think he needs to change himself. He’s freaking me out.

Mdm. Catherine: Don’t worry Mike. He thinks you’re cute. (*laughs) Anyway, I think we have to be
supportive towards him. He has promised to me that he’ll change himself. But you guys have to
change the way you guys see him as well...He not like what you guys think. He might different than
others, but that does not means you should treat him different.

Ashley: I don’t have problem with that. Personally, I think he’s very hard working.

George: Yes. He’s very determined. If only he was a girl.

*Everyone laugh

Mdm. Catherine: So, do we have an agreement here?

Mike: Yes Mdm. We’ll behave nicer towards him. I try to understand but he should watch his
manner.

Ashley & George: Us too. *smiles
