INT - TINO'S ROOM SOUTH LONDON
Tino has thought about this girl for 2 weeks if she could potentially be the new beginning he needs but he doesn't want to forget the love of his childhood life, someone who lifted him up when he was down but in all reality, he is gone and she isn't coming back and Tino has to face that. This scene set in Tino bedroom.
TINO

INT - OUTSIDE REBECCAS HOUSE
Tino is dressed in an all-black tux, he even got a trim for this special occasion, he wore his best perfume and put on one of his best smiles, his heart was racing and his palms were sweating, but he couldn't be more excited for this date. Rebecca is in a beautiful red dress, looking stunning. Tino can't take his eyes off of her.
REBECCA
Hey, I'm glad you called me
TINO
YOU LOOK AMAZING ( could not prevent the duel from leaving his mouth )
REBECCA
you look good too, Tino.
TINO
I am sorry I took so long to call
REBECCA
it's ok, so where are we going?
TINO
wherever you want to go
REBECCA
I might be a little overdressed for this but I was thinking of the arcade.
TINO
ummmm Does it have to there? ( remembering that was his first date with Angel.
REBECCA
You scared I am going to beat you?
TINO
No, it's that. There's something I have to tell you.
REBECCA
lol, stop being moist, tell me after the arcade.
TINO
but, but its .....
Tino gets dragged away before he could even tell her what he was going to say, so, therefore, they are on their way to the arcade, Tino doesn't drive ever since last year he got a driving ban, for the accident that happened with Angel he hasn't stepped in a car since. That night still haunts him.
INT - ARCADE
So far the date is going extremely well, Tino is trying to see past that he is exactly in the same spot he stood in a year ago with the love of his life and that he is stood in front of someone who could be his future and he shouldn't let go of that.
ARCADE MAN
5 mins till closing everyone
REBECCA
oh my goodness already, how time flys when you are having fun.
TINO
yeah, I guess we did have fun (smiling directly at her ) but I better get you home it getting really late.
REBECCA
yeah time has really gone, I have had an amazing date
TINO
me too, when am I going to get to see you again
REBECCA
well, that's up to you
TINO
(looks confused)
REBECCA
you haven't dated a lot, have you?
TINO
I have only ever had one girl in my life, you could say childhood sweetheart.
TINO
in fact, we came here almost a year ago together.
REBECCA
what happened ? was it a mutual break up
TINO
( starts to cry ) She is dead.
REBECCA
oh my gosh, I am so sorry for your loss.
TINO
if you are wondering how she died you should read the news.
TINO
I'm sorry but here's some money for a cab, I have to go ( runs off )
FADES TO BLACK:
INT - GRAVEYARD
It has been at least a month since Tino went on his date with Rebecca, he still loves Angel, he feels though if he moves on he would be hurting her because they never actually broke up she just happened to die unexpectedly and it changed both their lives. Tino walks to the graveyard after it is a year of him never visiting her he thought it was time to do so.
Timo is holding a candle he places on the gravestone, all emotions are going through his mind but, he lights the candle
TINO
I love you, nobody could ever change that, you were my everything, the day I lost you, I lost myself I think I could never move on from you, irreplaceable love that's what we had. ( tears fall from his face )
TINO
As much as I can't let you go, it pains me and others to live my life, everything happens for a reason I need to stop blaming myself because I know you are watching over me.
TINO
I know one day I am going to see you again, I have no doubt about that because you and I were supposed to be forever, you were my world but now that world has gone, I know you sent Rebecca I know you want me to be happy, and I hope I will be.
Tino kisses his hand and then kisses the grave and gives Angel a final goodbye and he believes he is ready to love someone else again because he knows he can't love a ghost.
INT - OUTSIDE THE MALL OF BRIXTON
Tino has faith in what he has with Rebecca after finally visiting the grave of his dead girlfriend, so he decides to actually take the time out to personally get to know her. Tino seeks advice from his best friend LUKE and a few other friends from his college.
LUKE
what are you saying, Tino? long time no see
TINO
I know bro, it has been really hard for me losing Angel, but in all honesty, I've met someone.
LUKE
no way, bro I'm glad to see you trying to find happiness again after angel.
TINO
In all honesty, we went on a date and it was the arcade.
LUKE
the arcade you and Angel went to
TINO
yes!
LUKE
Did angel come up?
TINO
eventually, she did and I got emotional and I left the date and went to her grave to actually say goodbye.
LUKE
you left the date, bro?
TINO
What should I do, it been almost a month now since I've spoken to her.
LUKE
a month woow ..... umm so hear is what you are going to do, you are going to call her and apoglizse about what happened and I think its time to tell her the whole truth about what happened with Angel.
TINO
everything?
LUKE
do you like her?
TINO
I do like her
LUKE
then this shouldn't be a problem
LUKE
bro the crash was never your fault
LUKE
I let you borrow the car
TINO
but I decided to drive
TINO
it killed her LUKE but yes you are right I need to stop thinking like that.
LUKE
bro go get your girl.
TINO
( gets shy ) Thanks, Bro
FADES TO BLACK:
INT - TINO'S ROOM SOUTH LONDON
Tino wants to make it up to Rebecca because he feels bad for running out on their date and he feels as though he owes her an explanation as to why he left the date so quickly, so he called her and they arranged to meet. They meet at a small cafe near where they both live.
REBECCA
Make it quick I haven't got long
TINO
what's with the attitude, I want to explain.
REBECCA
explain why you ran out on our date, explain why you haven't spoken to me in a month.
TINO
I should have told you the truth about my first love both I met you. The thing with her is that you and she could be twins, ever wonder why I called you Angel when I first met you.
REBECCA
I generally thought you were confused.
TINO
no, I wasn't confused I believed she could have been alive.
REBECCA
It's all starting to make more sense
TINO
angel and I were childhood lovers we grew up together we did everything together, I was with her for 5 years ever since I was 13 years old, I generally loved everything about her.
REBECCA
so what happened to her?
TINO
we one day decided to go driving one day, I was driving the car and then we got into an accident, and well she didn't make it, I tried so hard to wake her up but she was gone, I held her in my arms until the ambulance came but her final breath was when they arrived, I'm still not sure why I am alive and she is laying 6ft underground when I'm the one who killed her. I killed her and I loved her the most, so I loved and I lost the love of my life.
REBECCA
I have no words to say, I can't imagine losing someone so close to you.
TINO
Rebecca, I can't explain this properly but I like you but you remind me so much of her but I have seen past that now because I'm starting to move on with my life, I'm ready to love again.
REBECCA
well, I still don't know what to say.
TINO
don't say anything its fine
REBECCA
no, t's not I want to say something but I'm scared to say it
TINO
answer this do you like me too?
REBECCA
I think we both know the answer to that.
TINO
(can't stop smiling)
REBECCA
I think we should give this a go
TINO
I think we should as well.
INT STREETS OF SOUTH LONDON

lol, stop being moist, tell me after the arcade.
TINO
but, but its .....
Tino gets dragged away before he could even tell her what he was going to say, so, therefore, they are on their way to the arcade, Tino doesn't drive ever since last year he got a driving ban, for the accident that happened with Angel he hasn't stepped in a car since. That night still haunts him.
INT - ARCADE
So far the date is going extremely well, Tino is trying to see past that he is exactly in the same spot he stood in a year ago with the love of his life and that he is stood in front of someone who could be his future and he shouldn't let go of that.
ARCADE MAN
5 mins till closing everyone
REBECCA
oh my goodness already, how time flys when you are having fun.
TINO
yeah, I guess we did have fun (smiling directly at her ) but I better get you home it getting really late.
REBECCA
yeah time has really gone, I have had an amazing date
TINO
me too, when am I going to get to see you again
REBECCA
well, that's up to you
TINO
(looks confused)
REBECCA
you haven't dated a lot, have you?
TINO
I have only ever had one girl in my life, you could say childhood sweetheart.
TINO
in fact, we came here almost a year ago together.
REBECCA
what happened ? was it a mutual break up
TINO
( starts to cry ) She is dead.
REBECCA
oh my gosh, I am so sorry for your loss.
TINO
if you are wondering how she died you should read the news.
TINO
I'm sorry but here's some money for a cab, I have to go ( runs off )
FADES TO BLACK:
INT - GRAVEYARD
It has been at least a month since Tino went on his date with Rebecca, he still loves Angel, he feels though if he moves on he would be hurting her because they never actually broke up she just happened to die unexpectedly and it changed both their lives. Tino walks to the graveyard after it is a year of him never visiting her he thought it was time to do so.
Timo is holding a candle he places on the gravestone, all emotions are going through his mind but, he lights the candle
TINO
I love you, nobody could ever change that, you were my everything, the day I lost you, I lost myself I think I could never move on from you, irreplaceable love that's what we had. ( tears fall from his face )
TINO
As much as I can't let you go, it pains me and others to live my life, everything happens for a reason I need to stop blaming myself because I know you are watching over me.
TINO
I know one day I am going to see you again, I have no doubt about that because you and I were supposed to be forever, you were my world but now that world has gone, I know you sent Rebecca I know you want me to be happy, and I hope I will be.
Tino kisses his hand and then kisses the grave and gives Angel a final goodbye and he believes he is ready to love someone else again because he knows he can't love a ghost.
INT - OUTSIDE THE MALL OF BRIXTON
Tino has faith in what he has with Rebecca after finally visiting the grave of his dead girlfriend, so he decides to actually take the time out to personally get to know her. Tino seeks advice from his best friend LUKE and a few other friends from his college.
LUKE
what are you saying, Tino? long time no see
TINO
I know bro, it has been really hard for me losing Angel, but in all honesty, I've met someone.
LUKE
no way, bro I'm glad to see you trying to find happiness again after angel.
TINO
In all honesty, we went on a date and it was the arcade.
LUKE
the arcade you and Angel went to
TINO
yes!
LUKE
Did angel come up?
TINO
eventually, she did and I got emotional and I left the date and went to her grave to actually say goodbye.
LUKE
you left the date, bro?
TINO
What should I do, it been almost a month now since I've spoken to her.
LUKE
a month woow ..... umm so hear is what you are going to do, you are going to call her and apoglizse about what happened and I think its time to tell her the whole truth about what happened with Angel.
TINO
everything?
LUKE
do you like her?
TINO
I do like her
LUKE
then this shouldn't be a problem
LUKE
bro the crash was never your fault
LUKE
I let you borrow the car
TINO
but I decided to drive
TINO
it killed her LUKE but yes you are right I need to stop thinking like that.
LUKE
bro go get your girl.
TINO
( gets shy ) Thanks, Bro
FADES TO BLACK:
INT - TINO'S ROOM SOUTH LONDON
Tino wants to make it up to Rebecca because he feels bad for running out on their date and he feels as though he owes her an explanation as to why he left the date so quickly, so he called her and they arranged to meet. They meet at a small cafe near where they both live.
REBECCA
Make it quick I haven't got long
TINO
what's with the attitude, I want to explain.
REBECCA
explain why you ran out on our date, explain why you haven't spoken to me in a month.
TINO
I should have told you the truth about my first love both I met you. The thing with her is that you and she could be twins, ever wonder why I called you Angel when I first met you.
REBECCA
I generally thought you were confused.
TINO
no, I wasn't confused I believed she could have been alive.
REBECCA
It's all starting to make more sense
TINO
angel and I were childhood lovers we grew up together we did everything together, I was with her for 5 years ever since I was 13 years old, I generally loved everything about her.
REBECCA
so what happened to her?
TINO
we one day decided to go driving one day, I was driving the car and then we got into an accident, and well she didn't make it, I tried so hard to wake her up but she was gone, I held her in my arms until the ambulance came but her final breath was when they arrived, I'm still not sure why I am alive and she is laying 6ft underground when I'm the one who killed her. I killed her and I loved her the most, so I loved and I lost the love of my life.
REBECCA
I have no words to say, I can't imagine losing someone so close to you.
TINO
Rebecca, I can't explain this properly but I like you but you remind me so much of her but I have seen past that now because I'm starting to move on with my life, I'm ready to love again.
REBECCA
well, I still don't know what to say.
TINO
don't say anything its fine
REBECCA
no, t's not I want to say something but I'm scared to say it
TINO
answer this do you like me too?
REBECCA
I think we both know the answer to that.
TINO
(can't stop smiling)
REBECCA
I think we should give this a go
TINO
I think we should as well.
INT STREETS OF SOUTH LONDON
It was time for Tino to link up with the mandem again because it's been a while since they have all been together. Tino made sure he distanced himself from everyone after what happened but he is determined to get his life back on track
this scene is set in an area called South London all his boys are waiting for him with open arms.
Narration - you see before I met angel, I wasn't exactly the best of guys, angel took the bad side away from me I never saw need to go back to the trapping lifestyle because she held me down and I decided to go legit but now she's gone all that changes.
MICHAEL
wag1 bro you ready to come back to the strip
DESHAUN

CHASE

TINO

TINO

fast forwards to Tino supposedly in his element, he has all the tools to be a trapper again, a trap phone, bally, and product, after all these years they still even have the same connection. Tino puts on his mask and he starts selling products on the streets again. narration - she made me better, she really did.
TINO
