( MAEVE walks away )
ALEX Maybe they ' re right . Maybe it is possible . If they say it ' s better , if someone can relate … then maybe it will be okay . MAEVE is right , I do fake my happiness , so who says they ' re not right about this .
( ALEX starts to take of her mask )
ALEX No , I can ’ t . Everyone is going to see me like this . But maybe MAEVE can see the nicer me . I guess it could be a way to start over .
( ALEX takes off her mask showing a scar )
I guess I can finally breathe again .
