Kaji: Making My Mark

Writer: Peter K F Cheung SBSPeter K F Cheung SBS

FADE IN.


Act 1


INT. SITTING ROOM - MORNING


Resting in her bed, KAJI takes a look at a carton box nearby.


KAJI (V.O.): Some of my packaged treats and toys are still inside.


Pausing.


KAJI (V.O.) (COTINOUS): I can tell from the residual scent that they're from a Gang Member.


Pausing.


KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): I used to see her everyday, but not anymore.


Recalling.


KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): Have I made my mark to deserve all that?


Act 2


INT. SITTING ROOM - CONTINUOUS


Kaji stares at the door.


KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): When no one's home, I guard the door.


Pausing.


KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): When the door bell rings, I bark. I welcome those coming home, or I warn that a stranger is at the door.


Pausing.


KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): When the pack is eating, I keep them company.


Pausing.


KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): I won't compete with them for food, I would only take my share when I hear "OK".


Pausing.


KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): When the pack leader and Peter sleep late, I'd sleep in their bed first so that they'd know it's time to sleep.


Pausing.


KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): While they're sleeping, they'd like to touch me and I've never refused.


Pausing.


KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): More importantly, when we're out and someone tries to bully me, I've never had my tail between my legs.


Reflecting.


KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): I believe I've made my mark.


Recalling.


KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): Days ago, they did something strange...


FLASHBACK


INT. DINING ROOM - NIGHT


Kaji sees GANG MEMBER#1 taking out a pink bowl and something from the carton box.


KAJI (V.O.): Is that my new meal bowl?


Kaji then sees Gang Member#1 mixing something in the bowl.


KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): That something doesn't smell good.


Later, the PACK LEADER grabs Kaji to the dining table, forcing her to put her right paw on the stuff.


KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): What's that? A kind of pink stool?


Other GANG MEMBERS watch smilingly as PETER takes photos.


KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): I'd to cooperate as the pack leader is a she who must be obeyed,


RETURN TO PRESENT


Act 3


INT. SITTING ROOM - CONTINOUS


KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): In fact, my imprint was made in soft clay.


Pausing.


KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): While the Gang Members were very happy, I felt like a celebrity.


Pausing.


KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): That was their recognition of my making my mark.


Pausing.


KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): But the recognition wasn't edible.


Kaji gets up.


KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): I'd better remind Peter to buy breakfast for us.


FADE OUT.

THE END
