Valentine's day sketch

Int. Bedroom. Day

A young woman lies asleep in bed. The door to the bedroom opens and a man bursts in. The man is dressed as a loveheart and is carrying a bag.

Man: HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY!

The woman wakes up slowly and looks at him.

Woman: What?

The man bounds over to the bed.

Man: HAPPY HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY!

Woman: It's Valentine's day?

Man: Yeah! Look at all the presents I've got for you!

The man empties the bag on the bed. Around 20 presents fall out.

Woman: I didn't realise it was Valentine's day.

Man: (EXCITEDLY) So, what have you got me?

Woman: I'm sorry, but, (SIGHS) I don't know how to say this.

Man: What?

Woman: Last night was just a one night stand.

ENDS

Meh. Lacked your usual flair and invention I thought. I don't know, maybe others will see things differently.

It's a weak punch, with a fascinating build up.

Well, I liked it. It's not gonna win any awards, but I smiled.
