Scene I
(A song will be playing while Daisy is hanging clothes on a clothesline outside; Nalin is serving coffee and putting daisies in a vase. Suddenly Daisy goes to the garden in front of the house and lies there while reading a book. Nalin approaches her and they start a conversation).
Daisy: I feel like I’m trapped in a field of daisies, and I don’t know why my mind is burning with desire to cut off the daisies. I don’t know how I got there; I suppose that some things just can't be explained.
Nalin: You should take your meds, Daisy, otherwise I’ll have to take you to the doctor again and believe me, I don’t want to.
Daisy: If I don’t get out of the field I’ll start cutting off daisies until all of them are lifeless.
Nalin: Take your meds or you’ll go nuts again, Daisy.
Daisy: I’m not nuts, Nalin, I just have the feeling of living in a dream within the realm of possibility. I’m just out there, in a field of daisies crying bitter tears and running away from my burning desire of cuttting off daisies. I’m out there with that jumble of feelings all the time.
Nalin: What if this field of daisies is just a nightmare you had where the border between fiction and reality is intermixed?
Daisy: Dreams and nightmares are a part of reality, Nalin. When do you think we’re going to die?
Nalin: Why are you asking me this kind of things? Nobody knows that, it can be tomorrow, next week, in five years’ time, we can’t know that for sure, Daisy.
Daisy: I wouldn’t be that sure.
Nalin: And why wouldn’t you be sure about that? Either you know it or you don't?
Daisy: I don’t know … it’s just that sometimes I think that since the moment that we were born the date of our death is just set, like if life was a dream and as soon as you go to sleep someone knows when you’re going to wake up.
Nalin: And why would this be true?
